Spanish term or phrase: contrato de obra por administración
el contrato de obra por administración es aquel en que el constructor se obliga a ejecutar la obra y adquirir los materiales precisos para su realización por encargo o delegación expresa del promotor, quien se obliga a abonar el precio de los materiales empleados, la mano de obra y demás gastos, además de una remuneración que se asigna al contratista por sus tareas.

The client tells me it's not the same as a cost-plus contract but doesn't know the term to be used.
