Common use of Subcontracting and Prompt Payment Clause in Contracts

Subcontracting and Prompt Payment. a. Subcontracting any part of the Contract shall not relieve the Contractor of any obligation, duty or liability attributable to the Contractor under the Contract. b. The Contractor shall ensure, to the extent that they are applicable, that the Conditions of the Contract are reflected in any subcontracts for any part of the Contractor Deliverables. c. In all circumstances the Contractor shall ensure that all subcontracts in relation to this Contract include: (1) a requirement that either party to the subcontract may release to the Authority any of those parts of the subcontract documentation as are necessary to demonstrate the Contractor’s compliance with the provisions of the Contract and that any such release shall not amount to a breach of any provision of confidentiality contained within the subcontract; and (2) a term which requires payment to be made to the Subcontractor within a specified period not exceeding thirty (30) calendar days from receipt of a valid and undisputed invoice as defined by the subcontract requirements. d. Where the Contractor places any subcontract with a value of more than £50,000 in connection with this Contract, it shall ensure that it has the right to terminate that subcontract for convenience giving twenty (20) Business Days’ notice (or such other notice period as the Authority shall give under this Contract). e. When placing subcontracts, the Contractor is asked to give consideration, as far as possible, to placing work on a competitive basis with Subcontractors that are Supported Businesses.
