Services
-
Are you new to the NEC form of contract?
-
Has your project 'grown legs' and feels to be running away from you?
-
Unsure if you and your team are meeting the commercial deliverables?
-
Is your client disallowing costs in their monthly assessments which does not seem fair?
-
Are you covering all commercial bases to ensure your entitled recovery is met?
Companies delivering projects under the NEC Target cost and cost plus contracts face increasing pressure to demonstrate cost transparency and expenditure. Fire Horse26 offers 100% objectivity when supporting their clients with reimbursable and open-book contracts, and with 25 years in construction we help companies draw on their cost systems to offer clear visibility on cost to meet contract requirements, reduce risk and improve commercial outcomes.
We ensure a full understanding of your contract requirements are broken down in an 'easy to understand' format and include an annex of where your risks and opportunities lie at tender stage, precontract stage and during the contract works to ensure you are not compromised. We can proactively track contract deliverables whilst offering guidance to your project team on ways to streamline project delivery and reduce risk where possible.
Fire Horse26 has extensive dealings with the NEC form of contract and understand that contract deliverables can be daunting as they are extensive. We offer an immersive and/ or passive range of support to suit your needs and can cover all aspects of commercial management or part thereof, i.e.
So often, companies not so familiar with the NEC contract need an independent helping hand or require a sounding board to ensure their understanding of things are correct, or perhaps they need a second pair of eyes to review certain aspects of a tender, project, account, compensation event, risk etc.
Fire Horse26 offers an annual membership for 'on-hand' project or general commercial support available throughout the year.
