Programme
Each of your project contracts should set out the implications of any delays, including your obligations and liabilities.
Your contract terms and conditions may be related to the performance of others. Any contracts and international terms and conditions of Service (ICOTERMS) with EU and EEA customers may need to be amended.
There may be default Brexit terms, conditions or plans on the project that are not included in your contract.
Use our dedicated construction guide Are your Contracts Brexit Ready produced by Wedlake Bell which covers:
