Either our standard daily fee or a fixed fee will be charged for all 'Research', 'Project Support' work. (Subject to periodic review)
Regarding ‘Supplier Appraisals’ the following should be noted: The final appraisal of the Supplier is formed on the basis of the checks carried out. By undertaking the Appraisal a buyer is considered to be acting with ‘Due Diligence’ to minimise the risk of fraud. While such a process should significantly reduce the risk of fraud in no way can it be guaranteed to be 100% fool proof. When instructing a ‘Supplier Appraisal’ it is agreed that Galliard Lockings Associates will not be held responsible for any omissions, mis-information or deception on the part of the potential Supplier that is not uncovered during the checking process. Further, Galliard Lockings will not be held responsible for any loss which may result directly or indirectly from reliance on the content of the Supplier Appraisal.
