Contract and risk monitoring

Your project generates letters, minutes, defect items and invoices every week. That is where the risks lie – often unnoticed until a deadline has passed. We read along and report what needs your attention.

How the monitoring worksExample with fictitious data

New incoming items are recorded and assigned to the indicators.

  • Registered letter from ventilation contractorM21
  • Test report, chilled water pressure test, 3 findingsM02
  • Variation 14 electrical: “Adjustment of distribution”M13
  • Heating acceptance report with 2 exceptionsM03
  • Defect list platform: +18 plumbing itemsM04

21 indicators in ten families. Each one asks a question of the project files. Click a field to see its question.

a · Warnings and open decisions
b · Acceptances
c · Documents and versions
d · Deadlines
e · Defect trend
f · Parties and contract chain
g · Variations and costs
h · Evidence and coverage
i · Delivery and replies
j · Reservations and waivers

M01 · Warning without reply Does a technical notice remain without a reply and without a decision?

Five questions for Monday morning

  1. Which warnings and test findings has nobody answered yet – and whose move is it?
  2. Which acceptances have open exceptions, and which deadline expires next?
  3. Which variations actually cover remedial work, and has it been settled who pays for it?
  4. Which agreements are still missing signatures?
  5. Who actually is our contractual partner – and do companies, ordering parties and roles match?

An alert service, not legal advice – always accompanied by a specialist from our team. Clients see reports and dashboards in their protected project room at sedc.
