Raise a subcontract order from the award

Open the awarded bid and confirm the final scope, rates and any post-tender agreements, so the order is raised against the deal that was actually struck.

Varför: Post-tender negotiations change numbers that the original bid still shows. Confirming the settled position first is what stops the wrong figure being written into the contract.

Raise the purchase or subcontract order straight from the award, carrying the priced scope so the committed value ties back to the bill and the budget.

Varför: An order built from the award keeps the commitment stitched to the estimate. Rekeying it by hand is where a rate gets transposed and a package quietly overspends.

Attach the package programme dates, the payment terms, retention and the key obligations to the subcontractor record, so the deal is complete rather than just a price.

Varför: A price with no dates and no terms is where disputes start. Pinning the programme and the payment mechanism to the order now saves the argument later.

Issue the subcontract for signature and file the executed copy against the project, so the commitment is contractually live before the trade starts on site.

Varför: A subcontractor working without a signed order is a risk to both sides. Getting the contract executed before mobilisation is the discipline that keeps the package governable.
