Contract & Commercial Management.

NEC3 and NEC4 experts. We make the contract work in practice — timely notices, clear assessments, usable registers and entitlement protected.

Why it matters

Good contract management is a project control.

NEC works best when the commercial record is current, the team understands its obligations and change is dealt with while it is still manageable. Left alone, the same contract becomes the reason value is left behind.

We help SME contractors make NEC3 and NEC4 work — and we bring the same discipline to JCT and other forms.

What we do.

NEC3 and NEC4 contract administration

We are NEC experts — Option A and Option C included. Notices, quotations, assessments, registers and records, managed from notice through to agreement.

Compensation events and early warnings

Compensation events notified, quoted and assessed while they are still manageable — and early warnings connected to real mitigation, not just logged.

Payment and defined cost

Applications, payment notices, defined cost assessment and disallowed-cost challenge, supported by a complete and current record.

Change management and final accounts

Change given a clear route from instruction to forecast, and final accounts agreed from the record rather than negotiated on memory.

JCT and other contract forms

The same commercial discipline applied to JCT and other forms — payment, variations, loss and expense, and extension of time support.

Contract advice and training

Plain-English advice on options, defined cost, pain/gain and final accounts — plus training for owners, commercial managers and site teams.

Less noise, better entitlement

Fewer surprises. A record that stands up.

  • Compensation events that are notified and tracked.
  • Early warnings connected to real mitigation.
  • Risk and forecast information directors can use.
  • Final accounts supported by a complete record.

Works alongside

One discipline, four services.

Common questions.

What is a NEC compensation event?

A compensation event is an event the NEC contract allows the contractor to be paid for, or given more time for — for example a client instruction, late information or a matter the client controls. The contract sets the process: notify, quote, assess and record. Each event affects Defined Cost, time or both.
