About this Item

Paperback. Understanding JCT 2024 for Subcontractors Getting Paid, Staying Protected, and Building Fairer Projects No jargon. No panic. Just process. Tired of signing contracts you don't fully trust? Ready to stop chasing payments and start taking control? Understanding JCT 2024 for Subcontractors is the straight-talking guide every subcontractor wishes they'd had years ago. Written for the real world - not the boardroom - it breaks down the new JCT 2024 Subcontract in plain, practical language you can actually use on site. You'll learn how to: - Get paid on time by mastering Clauses 4.8 and 4.9. - Protect your scope when instructions change (Clause 3.14). - Claim what you're owed for delays and disruption (Clauses 2.29 and 4.20). - Handle payment games and unfair tactics with quiet confidence. - Stay sane and organised, even when your head's spinning. Built under the That Focuses ethos, this book is designed for busy, neurodiverse, and detail-driven minds who need clarity, rhythm, and relevance; not legal waffle. Whether you're a subcontractor, commercial manager, or site-based QS, this isn't just a guide to the contract; it's a toolkit for survival. Learn how to read every clause before it costs you, how to push back without conflict, and how to finish every job with your integrity (and your balance) intact. Because in construction, fairness doesn't happen by accident; it's built clause by clause, person by person, project by project. This item is printed on demand.
