  1. ​

 

  • These terms of trade apply to all transactions between the Customer and the Supplier relating to the provision of Goods and Services. This includes all quotations, contracts and variations. These terms of trade take precedence over terms of trade contained in any document of the Customer or elsewhere.

 

  • The variation or waiver of a provision of these terms or a party's consent to a departure from a provision by another party is ineffective unless in writing signed by the parties.

 

  • The Supplier may amend any details in a Quote by notice in writing to the

 

 

Customer. Such amended details supersede any relevant prior detail in dealings between the parties.

 

  1. ​

 

  • The Supplier may provide the Customer with a Quote. Any Quote issued by the Supplier is valid for 14 days from the date of issue.

 

  • Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing, a Quote does not include delivery or installation of the Goods.

 

  • Quotes are based upon the cost of materials available at the time of preparation of the Quote and assume the timely supply by the Customer of necessary material and instructions to the Supplier.

  • The Supplier reserves the right to amend any Quote before the Order has been completed to take into account any rise or fall in the cost of completing the Order.

  • Orders must be signed by an authorised representative of the Customer and must specify the required date of delivery.

  1. ​

 

  • The Customer may request that its Order be varied by providing a request in writing to the Supplier. A request for a variation must be agreed to in writing by the Supplier in order to have effect.

 

  • If the Customer wishes to vary its requirements after a Quote has been prepared by the Supplier or after the placement of an Order, the Supplier reserves the right to vary the Quote to include any Additional Charge in respect of any extra costs incurred or additional work carried out due to the variation, in accordance with its then current charge rates. A revised Quote issued by the Supplier in respect of the requested variation supersedes the original Quote. If the revised Quote only specifies additional work, the Quote for that additional work will be in addition to the immediately preceding Quote for the Goods or Services or both.

 

  • The Supplier has an automatic extension of time for the provision of the Goods or Services equal to the delay caused by the variation.

  • at the end of each week before the Order is completed, the Supplier may

 

 

issue one or more invoices for a proportion or the whole of the amount of the Quote (the proportion to be calculated at the Supplier's discretion either for work done to that point, work in the future or both) and require that proportion of the Quote be paid in advance of any further Goods or Services being provided; or

 

  • upon completion of the provision of the Goods or Services or any time thereafter, for an amount equal to the Quote or the balance of the Quote outstanding, any Additional Charges and any amount not previously invoiced, or if no Quote was provided, for an amount representing the Supplier's charge for the work performed in completing the Order and for any Additional Charges.

 

  • The amount payable by the Customer will be the amount set out in the invoice. This will be calculated as:

year on all overdue amounts owed by the Customer to the Supplier, calculated daily.

  • is a bailee of the Goods until property in them passes to the Customer;

  • a PPS Law applies or commences to apply to these terms of trade or any transaction contemplated by them, or the Supplier determines (based on legal advice) that this is the case; and

 

  • in the Supplier's opinion, the PPS Law:

 

  • does or will adversely affect the Supplier's security position or obligations; or

 

  • enables or would enable the Supplier's security position to be improved without adversely affecting the Customer,

The Customer must comply with the requirements of that notice within the time specified in the notice.

  • A party must not commence legal proceedings (except proceedings seeking interlocutory relief) in respect of a dispute unless the dispute has

 

 

been referred for resolution in accordance with this paragraph.

No party may use any information or documents obtained through the dispute resolution process for any purpose other than an attempt to settle the dispute between the parties.
