The process includes the team at Develop-X identifying key risks, obligations, and opportunities within the contract; verifying compliance with applicable laws and company policies; and highlighting any clauses that may impact cost, time, or performance. The objective is to provide the client with clear, actionable advice to support informed decision-making and successful contract execution.
A Loss and Expense Claim (often called a “L&E claim”) is a formal request by a contractor to recover additional costs and/or time-related expenses that arise due to events caused by the client (or employer), beyond the contractor’s control.
