The FIDIC Before You Sign That Contract: A Practical Subcontractor’s Checklist for Spotting Risk, Protecting Cashflow, and Avoiding Costly Mistakes (The “Before You Sign” Series) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Most subcontractors don’t lose money because they can’t do the work.
They lose it because of what they agreed to before they started.
Contracts arrive late.
You’re under pressure to sign.
The programme’s tight.
The job looks good.
So you scan it, pick up the obvious bits…
and trust the rest will be fine.
That’s where the problems start.
Because hidden inside most construction contracts are small pieces of wording that:
• delay your payment
• push risk onto you
• limit your ability to recover variations
• expose you to costs you never priced
And once you’ve signed it - you’re committed.
This book gives you a simple, part of The “Before You Sign” Series practical, way to stop that happening.
Built on over 40 years of real construction experience,
