GMH Planning in conjunction with CECA (Civil Engineering Contractors Association) are producing a series of monthly bulletins focusing each month on an aspect of NEC contracts that their members should take particular attention to.

The fifth bulletin in our series is about understanding early warnings and the liability/sanctions of a Contractor not notifying early warnings, for which you can download a copy here:

[CECA NEC4 Bulletin No.5 – Early Warnings and Liability for Not Notifying – May 2021](https://gmhplanning.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/CECA-NEC4-Bulletin-No.5-Early-Warnings-and-Liability-for-Not-Notifying-May-2021.pdf)

The bulletins are intended to be a quick focus on certain aspects of the contract to allow parties to properly price and programme accordingly at tender stage and manage the contractual processes during the life of the project.

Please give us your feedback on the usefulness or otherwise with regards to how you find the content of these bulletins.
