JCT CONTRACTS COACHING

Why This Matters

JCT contracts are widely used, but often poorly administered. Authority is misunderstood. Notices are missed. Entitlement is lost quietly. Most problems under JCT do not arise from the wording of the contract, but from how it is applied, administered and evidenced.
