Contract Review Service

A Contract that is within your understanding of the agreement and within your parameters for risk is essential to you being able to achieve your desired outcomes, avoid disputes, and unnecessary costs.


Our Contract Review Service

How we Provide our Contract Reviews


We read your contract against any relevant documents, including your tender submission, and identify any risks we find that could result in negative outcomes for you.  We then provide you with a risk assessment which highlights each risk and provides a mitigation action for the risk.  The assessment also advises on the severity of the risk before and after the mitigation action.


All contract reviews are carried out by a Chartered Professional with over 25 years experiance in Construction Contracts, who is also:

  • A Qualified Surveyor Specialising in Claims and Disputes.

  • A Registered Construction Adjudicator.

  • A Chartered Construction Manager specialising in Contract Negotiation & Risk Management.


How Much Does it Cost?


We perform a free preliminary review of the size and complexity of the terms and then provide you with a fixed price for the full review.




"I cannot recommend Mark from Holden Smith Consultancy highly enough. His attention to detail and knowledge of the construction industry is second to none. His costs are also very reasonable. 5 star without a shadow of doubt."
