Payment timing mismatch. The EPC contract commits to a 30-day payment cycle, but the subcontractor agreement allows 45 days — creating a 15-day funding gap that could trigger cash flow issues on larger claims.
ContractA.pdf · p.12 · §4.3 Subcontract.pdf · p.7 · §3.1
Notification deadline conflict. The insurance policy requires notification within 48 hours of an incident, but the site safety plan says "as soon as practicable" — these could conflict if an incident goes unreported over a weekend.
Insurance_Policy.pdf · p.8 · §6.1 Safety_Plan.pdf · p.14 · §9.2
Completion date unclear. Three separate documents reference different completion dates: 15 March, 31 March, and "end of Q1" — this needs to be resolved before the next progress claim.
