−	However, unlike an EPC contract, on an EPCM contract the client employs the necessary trade contractors to construct the works.

The 'contractor' designs the project, and then acts as a construction manager, co-ordinating the procurement process and then managing the trade contractors. Effectively they are performing the roll of a consultant during the construction phase.

−	As the client contracts the trade contractors, they require greater expertise than they would on an EPC contract.	+	This might be appropriate where the client wishes to retain a degree of control over the procurement process, for example if there is uncertainty about the exact scope or nature of the works required when the procurement process begins. This can be used to accelerate construction by enabling some parts of the works to begin (for example piling) whilst the design of other parts of the works continues.
