1. Introduction & Acceptance
These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of the website, materials, and professional services provided by Projectonomics LLC (“Projectonomics”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). By engaging Projectonomics, browsing our website, or entering into a statement of work with us, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms.
If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity, in which case “you” and “Client” refer to that entity. If you do not agree with these Terms, you must not use our website or engage our services.
2. Definitions
In these Terms, the following words have the meanings set out below:
- “Client” means the organisation or individual that engages Projectonomics to provide Services.
- “Services” means the project and programme management consultancy services described in Section 3 and detailed in an applicable Statement of Work.
- “Statement of Work” or “SOW” means a written document, signed by both parties, that sets out the specific scope, deliverables, timeline, and fees for a particular engagement.
- “Deliverables” means the reports, plans, models, and other work product prepared by Projectonomics for the Client under an SOW.
- “Confidential Information” has the meaning given in Section 7.
- “Applicable Law” means all laws, regulations, and mandatory codes of practice that apply to the parties or the Services.
3. Scope of Services
Projectonomics provides independent project, programme, and portfolio management consultancy. This may include, without limitation, delivery governance, programme management office (PMO) services, planning and scheduling, risk and issue management, cost and schedule assurance, stakeholder management, and recovery of distressed programmes.
Our Services are advisory and delivery-support in nature. Unless expressly agreed otherwise in writing, Projectonomics does not assume the role of principal contractor, and the Client retains ultimate responsibility for its business decisions, its programmes, and its statutory obligations.
4. Engagement & Contracts
Each engagement is governed by an individual Statement of Work executed by both parties. These Terms form the master framework that applies to every engagement; the SOW governs the specifics of that particular engagement, including scope, deliverables, timelines, fees, and any special conditions.
Where a conflict arises between these Terms and a signed SOW, the SOW prevails for that engagement to the extent of the conflict. No variation to an SOW is effective unless agreed in writing by authorised representatives of both parties.
5. Fees, Invoicing & Payment
Fees for the Services are set out in the applicable SOW and may be charged on a fixed-price, time-and-materials, or retainer basis. We are committed to transparent, itemised invoicing so that the Client can clearly understand the charges applied.
- Unless otherwise stated in the SOW, invoices are payable within thirty (30) days of the invoice date.
- All fees are exclusive of value added tax (VAT) and any other applicable taxes or duties, which will be added where required by law.
- All payments must be made through regulated banking channels in the Client’s or Client’s authorised entity’s own name. Projectonomics does not accept anonymous, untraceable, or third-party payments whose source cannot be verified.
- We reserve the right to charge interest on overdue amounts at the statutory rate under the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998.
6. Client Responsibilities
To enable Projectonomics to deliver the Services effectively, the Client agrees to:
- Provide timely, accurate, and complete information, documentation, and access reasonably required for the engagement.
- Make available appropriate personnel and decision-makers to support the Services.
- Obtain and maintain any consents, licences, or permissions necessary for its programmes and for Projectonomics to perform the Services.
- Ensure that any information it provides does not infringe the rights of any third party and is not unlawful.
- Comply with all Applicable Law relevant to its own operations and the engagement.
Projectonomics is not liable for delays or deficiencies in the Services to the extent they are caused by the Client’s failure to meet these responsibilities.
7. Confidentiality
Each party may receive confidential and proprietary information belonging to the other (“Confidential Information”). Each party agrees to keep the other’s Confidential Information secure, to use it solely for the purposes of the engagement, and not to disclose it to any third party except to its personnel and advisers who need to know it and who are bound by equivalent obligations.
These confidentiality obligations do not apply to information that is or becomes public through no breach of these Terms, is independently developed, or is required to be disclosed by law, regulation, or a competent authority. Where disclosure is legally required, the disclosing party will, where lawful and practicable, give the other party reasonable prior notice. Confidentiality is maintained only for legitimate, lawful purposes and never to conceal wrongdoing.
8. Intellectual Property
Projectonomics retains all intellectual property rights in its methodologies, templates, tools, know-how, and any pre-existing materials used in delivering the Services. Upon full payment of all fees due under the applicable SOW, and unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Client is granted a non-exclusive, perpetual licence to use the Deliverables for its internal business purposes.
The Client retains ownership of its own pre-existing materials and any data it provides. Neither party may use the other’s name, trademarks, or logos without prior written consent, except that Projectonomics may reference the existence of an engagement in general terms for marketing purposes where permitted by the SOW.
9. Compliance, Anti-Bribery, Sanctions & Anti-Money-Laundering
Projectonomics is a reputable, law-abiding firm and conducts its business to the highest standards of integrity. Compliance is not optional for us or for our clients. Before and during an engagement, Projectonomics carries out full Know Your Customer (“KYC”) and Anti-Money-Laundering (“AML”) due diligence on clients, their beneficial owners, and the source of funds used to pay for our Services.
- We comply with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), the UK Bribery Act 2010, and all other applicable anti-corruption laws, and maintain a strict zero-tolerance policy towards bribery and corruption in any form. Neither party shall offer, promise, give, request, or accept any improper financial or other advantage.
- We comply with all applicable sanctions regimes, including those administered by the United Kingdom, the European Union, the United Nations, and the United States. We will not act for any sanctioned party or facilitate any sanctioned transaction.
- We comply with the Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds (Information on the Payer) Regulations 2017 and all other applicable AML regulations.
- Where we are required to do so by law, we will report suspicious activity to the relevant authorities, and we may be prohibited from disclosing that such a report has been made.
- Projectonomics reserves the right to decline, suspend, or terminate any engagement, without liability, where we reasonably believe it is or may become unlawful, involves the proceeds of crime, or breaches sanctions, anti-bribery, or AML requirements.
The Client warrants that the funds used to pay for the Services are derived from lawful sources and agrees to cooperate fully with our compliance and due-diligence procedures.
10. Warranties & Disclaimers
Projectonomics warrants that the Services will be performed with reasonable skill and care, in a professional manner, and in accordance with recognised industry standards and the applicable SOW.
Except as expressly stated in these Terms or an SOW, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, all other warranties, conditions, and terms, whether express or implied by statute, common law, or otherwise, are excluded. In particular, Projectonomics does not warrant any specific business outcome, financial result, or programme success, as these depend on factors beyond our control, including decisions and actions taken by the Client and third parties.
11. Limitation of Liability
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits either party’s liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
Subject to the foregoing, and to the fullest extent permitted by law:
- Neither party is liable for any indirect, special, or consequential loss, or for loss of profit, revenue, goodwill, or anticipated savings, arising out of or in connection with the Services.
- Projectonomics’s total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with an engagement, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), or otherwise, is limited to the total fees paid by the Client under the applicable SOW in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, unless a different cap is agreed in the SOW.
12. Indemnification
The Client shall indemnify and hold harmless Projectonomics and its personnel against all reasonable losses, liabilities, and costs arising from the Client’s breach of these Terms, its provision of inaccurate or unlawful information, or its infringement of any third-party rights. Each party’s indemnity obligations are subject to the limitations set out in Section 11 and to the indemnified party promptly notifying the other and allowing reasonable cooperation in the defence of any claim.
13. Term & Termination
These Terms apply for as long as any SOW between the parties remains in effect. Either party may terminate an engagement in accordance with the notice provisions set out in the relevant SOW.
Either party may terminate an engagement immediately on written notice if the other party commits a material breach that is not remedied within thirty (30) days of written notice, becomes insolvent, or ceases to carry on business. Projectonomics may also terminate immediately where required to do so under Section 9 (Compliance). On termination, the Client shall pay for all Services properly performed up to the date of termination. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination, including Sections 7, 8, 9, 11, and 14, shall continue in force.
14. Governing Law & Jurisdiction
These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or their subject matter are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. The parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of Wyoming, without prejudice to any right to seek interim relief in any competent jurisdiction.
15. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in our services, in Applicable Law, or in our business practices. The current version will always be published on this page with the “Last updated” date shown above. Where changes are material, we will take reasonable steps to notify active clients. Your continued use of our Services after any change constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms; the version in force at the date an SOW is signed governs that engagement unless the parties agree otherwise.
