The rules about claiming and making payment under construction contracts can be complex, we still see clients falling foul of the rules and the financial harm which can follow from this. Failure to follow the correct procedures can lead to employers being forced to make payments prematurely (so-called ‘smash and grab’ applications) and for contractors being prevented from collecting interim payments for work done.
Join us for this short webinar hosted by our Construction team where we will provide a practical reminder of rules, and how to avoid the common pitfalls including:
• What are the legal requirements for payment applications and notices in construction contracts
• What are the consequences of not following the requirements for payment notices and payless notices
• An update on the latest developments including the potential problems using WhatsApp in construction projects
• Practical advice so that contractors can get paid, employers are not forced to pay too early and contract administrators are not caught out by the rules
This webinar is aimed at employers, contractors, contract administrators and other construction professionals.
