Subcontracting Agreement

A Subcontracting Agreement defines obligations between a primary contractor and subcontractor for project execution. This playbook examines flow-down provisions, performance guarantees, and dispute management.

Compliance and Policies

Ensure all compliance clauses are comprehensive and align with the latest legal standards. Regularly update internal policies to reflect changes in law.
