General

These Terms and Conditions shall apply to all contracts for the supply of services by Senit to the Customer.

All Development Proposal and Cost Documents shall be subject to these Terms and Conditions.

Senit shall use all reasonable endeavours to complete the services within estimated time frames but time shall not be of the essence in the performance of any services.

Fees & payment

The fees for the performance of the services are as set out in the Development Proposal and Cost Documents. Senit shall invoice the Customer for the services as detailed therein.

Invoiced amounts shall be due and payable within 30 days of receipt of invoice. Senit shall be entitled to charge interest daily on overdue invoices from the date when payment becomes due from until the date of payment at a rate of 2% per annum above the base rate of the Bank of England. In the event that the Customer’s procedures require that an invoice be submitted against a purchase order to payment, the Customer shall be responsible for issuing such purchase order before the services are rendered.

Customer’s obligations

  • To enable Senit to perform its obligations under this Agreement the Customer shall:
    • co-operate with Senit;
    • provide Senit with any information reasonably required by Senit;

For the avoidance of doubt, the Customer’s failure to comply with any obligations under this Clause shall be deemed to be a cancellation of the services and subject to the payment of the damages set out in this Clause. 
  • In the event that the Customer or any third party, not being a sub-contractor of Senit, shall omit or commit anything which prevents or delays Senit from undertaking or complying with any of its obligations under this Agreement, then Senit shall notify the Customer as soon as possible and:
  • Senit shall have no liability in respect of any delay to the completion of any project; if applicable, the timetable for the project will be modified accordingly;
  • Senit shall notify the Customer at the same time if it intends to make any claim for additional costs.

  • The Customer may at any time request alterations to the Development Proposal and Cost Documents by notice in writing to Senit.

Indemnification

The Customer shall indemnify Senit against all claims, costs and expenses which Senit may incur and which arise, directly or indirectly, from the Customer’s breach of any of its obligations under this Agreement, including any claims brought against Senit alleging that any services provided by Senit in accordance with the Development Proposal and Cost Documents infringes a patent, copyright or trade secret or other similar right of a third party.

Senit may, in addition to its own employees, engage sub-contractors to provide all or part of the services being provided to the Customer and such engagement shall not relieve Senit of its obligations under this Agreement.

Assignment

The Customer shall not be entitled to assign its rights or obligations or delegate its duties under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Senit.

Severability

If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason by any Court of competent jurisdiction such provision shall be severed and the remainder of the provisions herein shall continue in full force and effect as if this Agreement had been agreed with the invalid illegal or unenforceable provision eliminated.

Waiver

The failure by either party to enforce at any time or for any period any one or more of the Terms and Conditions herein shall not be a waiver of them or of the right at any time subsequently to enforce all Terms and Conditions of this Agreement.
