TERMS:
|
| Prepayment of estimated assignment costs by a leading credit card,
bank cheque or cleared funds into an approved bank. Full detailed accounting
provided upon completion of the assignment where a pre-agreed shared cost
contribution has not been arranged. Where insufficient funds are held in
advance, a handling fee of 10% is levied on excess outgoings, and we reserve
the right to suspend the work until further funds are provided. Delays
in provision of any required supplementary funds will result in a penalty
charge of 50% of the normal charge rates of the staff involved, and delays
of more than 24 hours could result in the staff being withdrawn from the
local base to their normal locations, resulting is further return travel
costs being charged in addition if the local work is to be restarted once
funds are provided. |

CONCESSIONAL TERMS
|
| In many cases, where a project is not so urgent, considerable savings
can be made by providing us with greater flexability in deploying our staff.
For instance, just One Third of full fare is charged where we can choose
the dates of deployment of staff within 3 months of firm contract being
agreed. |
