What's on the page

Pricing it. The box, who carries which risk, and where each contract type puts it.
Reading it. The nine words to find first, and the one-page risk summary to build your admin round.
When it moves. Spot it early, put it in writing, sign it off, then do it. Never a verbal nod.
Getting paid. The payment clock to diarise, and the paperwork that goes with the invoice.
Worth knowing these exist. The Construction Act highlights, and the Scheme if there's no contract.
Start small. One page per job, one folder per job, the same standard down the chain.
When to bring in a solicitor. The three triggers.

Not legal advice. The commercial-management questions I've learned to ask over fifteen years of managing contracts, from small firms to multi-billion-pound programmes.
