Before and After

  • A close-up black and white photograph of a smiling woman holding a bouquet of flowers.

    Contract Risk Assessment

    BEFORE: About to sign £2.8m subcontract with payment terms that create 90-day cash flow exposure

    AFTER: Identified payment mechanism trap in Clause 12.4, negotiated revised terms, eliminated £275k potential liability

    TIMELINE: 48 hours from instruction to final recommendation

  • The image shows a black silhouette of a bird in flight against a white background.

    Dispute Resolution

    BEFORE: £2.3m claim heading to adjudication, client preparing bundle themselves to "save money"

    AFTER: (Declined engagement - client proceeded alone) Lost entire claim through weak evidence and amateur strategy. That's not cost saving, that's commercial negligence.

    LESSON: Specialist support on six-figure disputes isn't optional - it's the difference between winning and losing everything.

  • Cash Flow Crisis Prevention

    BEFORE: Tier 2 contractor with "healthy" forecast suddenly facing £340k hole at week 11

    AFTER: Implemented weekly tracking discipline, identified warning signs at week 3, adjusted procurement strategy, prevented cash crisis before it collapsed project

    TIMELINE: 2 weeks to implement tracking system, ongoing weekly discipline

  • A close-up of a glass of orange juice with a straw on a white background.

    Variation Recovery

    BEFORE: £4.8m mechanical project with poor change control, variations tracked informally, final account looking weak

    AFTER: Implemented systematic change tracking, forensic review of missed variations, recovered £127k that would have been written off

    TIMELINE: 4 weeks to implement system and complete forensic review
