THEORY INTO PRACTICE
You are an expert in your product or the service you provide you are not a Lawyer!
Just as important – if not more so- as negotiating the terms of a JCT or NEC contract up front is putting the theory into practice and making the contract work for you.
Having evaluated the risks or the JCT or NEC contract, negotiated and agreed favourable terms with your client it is imperative that this is not lost or compromised by your staff, procedures and systems when project managing the contract.
For example, having negotiated within the JCT or NEC Contract a provision for an extension of time you do not want to undermine that by a failure to submit in the correct format and a timely manner the appropriate “Notice of Delay”.
Unlike lawyers and legal advisers offering remote legal advice the FRESH JCT team with over 30 years experience of providing specialist Mechanical and Electrical Equipment to the Construction Industry will support and guide you in putting the theory into practice.
Whether giving advice on a specific issue or supporting and working closely with your Project Managers we are here to help and guide you in making JCT and NEC Contracts work for you.
