GONE ARE THE DAYS OF A FAIR CONTRACT...
The reality of the construction industry is that 99% of the contracts are either client written “hostile” contracts or highly amended standard contracts. The further down the chain you are, the more the risk is pushed onto you.
Unreasonable Terms
These contracts often times are asking you to sign up to unlimited liability, consequential damages, never ending rewarranty periods and extremely tight time bars (to name a few issues).
Even for smaller value contracts, signing up to the wrong terms can potentially be catastrophic for your business.
Expensive Recruitment
The problem for Subcontractors is they cannot afford to pay the recruitment and salary costs for lawyers and contracts experts.
This means that senior management has to spend considerable time doing the reviews themselves.
With time constraints and lack of expertise this can lead to mistakes and omissions which can put your company at risk.
Become Contractually Savvy
We help construction subcontractors avoid contractual landmines, save money and upskill their workforce.
Believe it or not, Clients and Tier 1’s feel assured that you know what you are doing when you present a reasonable number of professionally worded departures to a contract.

What Construction and Restaurants Have in Common
In his famous Kitchen Confidential, the postmodern cult classic, Anthony Bourdain has a dig at restaurants that serve brunch on the weekends. He says it’s an easy way to get rid of scraps and attach a hefty price tag to it. Clever business maybe, but potentially not so great for the customer.

The other day I ordered a toast basket with my breakfast. I expected it to be a basket of toast.
