My reading of that clause is that, as long as the strata manager has done their job properly, they can’t be held liable for damages cause by any work that they have commissioned or contracted in good faith. For instance, if they had contracted an unlicensed builder to do work, that would be negligent and they could be partially liable for any damages resulting from that. However, if they have hired a licensed builder, with the full approval of the Owners Corp through an agreed tendering process, then if it all goes pear-shaped, the Owners Corp’s beef is with the builder, not the strata manager who hired them.
