Terms of Trade

These are the terms and conditions that apply when Derive Consulting Group provides services to you. They cover how we scope and deliver work, how fees are calculated and invoiced, what we each need from the other to get the job done, and how we handle any dispute.

They apply alongside the specific proposal, engagement letter, or quote for your project. Where a proposal sets out something different, the proposal governs for that project.

The PDF below is the full and definitive document. Please read it in full before engaging us. If anything is unclear, or you would like to talk through a particular clause, get in touch and we will happily walk you through it.
