Why Use CMD
We know that when using a consultant, what really counts are the benefits that can be achieved for the client, the understanding of the client's operating environment and the capacity to match client requirements with value for money.
Before Contract Management Direct there was limited choice in the market for high quality commercial and contract management advice for Technology clients. If you needed professional contract guidance most clients looked towards using either sole practitioners or lawyers.
Sole traders provide a person not a service, frequently moving from job to job at short notice and as such are an unproven entity only interested in working on a full-time basis. Typically an individual would not carry Professional Indemnity Insurance and could also put your business at risk with employment and tax legislation such as IR35. At the opposite end of the scale Law firms are expensive and the costs of large offices, partners, trainees and support staff are all passed on to the client. Expense aside, the ability of Sole traders is questionable and varies significantly and Lawyers tend not to be naturally commercially minded and focus on the main contract terms and conditions rather than the contract schedules that describe the scope and the services to be provided, payment terms, SLAs, milestones and acceptance criteria, which in our experience is where the day to day issues tend to arise.
Our unique selling point is without doubt the experience, quality and commitment of our team. Whether you are looking for short term interim support or have long term needs, be they full or part time, Contract Management Direct can supply you the right resource for your contract and commercial needs when and where you require it.
