Fire Horse26 Ltd was established to address the unique challenges experienced by subcontractors within the aviation construction sector. This is done by focusing on the viability of planned applications in running the project in accordance with the contract expectations, adaptability as projects progress, whilst weighing up risk and not losing focus on business objectives.

Our Approach

Our expert contract management ensures the viability of aviation construction projects by meticulously planning and co-ordinating activities to achieve contract and business objectives.

Challenges subcontractors face under NEC:

 

  • Treating the contract like a lump‑sum agreement regardless of form of contract

  • Poor cost capture and missing audit trail 

  • Incorrect application of Defined Cost resulting in a Disallowed Cost

  • Missed Early Warnings, CE notices and time‑bar deadlines

  • Under‑recovery of change due to weak CE quotations or evidence

  • Weak forecasting and exposure to pain‑share overspend 

  • Insufficient programme or disruption evidence

  • Contractor‑controlled narrative during assessments or change discussions

What Fire Horse26 provides for subcontractors:

 

  • Compliant cost capture and coding aligned to the contract commercial principles and internal accounts

  • Defined Cost evidence packs suitable for audit 

  • Support preparing robust CE quotations and assessments 

  • CE identification, notices, pricing and submissions

  • CE registers, trackers and trend management

  • Forecast Final Cost and overspend risk management 

  • Programme narrative and disruption evidence for logistics sequencing

  • Early Warning drafting and mitigation records

  • Negotiation support with the contractor

  • Commercial and Contract Admin coaching
