NEOX works on the sponsor side to connect the agreements governing revenue, supply, delivery, operations, and infrastructure—clarifying obligations, resolving contractual gaps, and making retained risks visible before they weaken project economics or execution.
A project’s contracts must function as a single commercial system. NEOX connects the principal agreements, tests their dependencies, and identifies where inconsistent obligations, timing, performance standards, or remedies could leave the project exposed.
Align volume, pricing, indexation, quality, delivery, acceptance, payment security, and termination terms with the project’s production, logistics, certification, and market assumptions.
Test whether critical inputs can be supplied at the required quantity, quality, location, timing, and cost—and whether shortfalls, substitutions, transport, storage, and price exposure are adequately addressed.
Connect scope, schedule, completion testing, performance guarantees, change control, damages, warranties, and acceptance across EPC, EPCM, technology, equipment, and related delivery arrangements.
Align operating standards, availability, maintenance, lifecycle replacement, performance deductions, and reporting with the obligations established under construction, supply, and offtake agreements.
Test whether land rights, grid access, utilities, pipelines, ports, roads, storage, and shared infrastructure support the construction schedule and operating requirements on commercially workable terms.
Identify how permits, concessions, incentives, certification, government support, change in law, and approval dependencies affect contractual obligations, timing, cost, and performance.
“Development value is created by resolving critical interfaces before they become cost, schedule, or financing failures.”
NEOX helps sponsors determine where material risks should sit, what protections are commercially supportable, and which exposures must remain visible in project decisions and economics.
Map risks across development, construction, commissioning, operations, and termination. Identify contract mismatches, competing relief provisions, circular dependencies, and exposures left uncovered between counterparties.
Assess which party can control, mitigate, insure, price, or absorb each risk. Where transfer is impractical or uneconomic, define the sponsor’s retained exposure and available mitigants.
Develop sponsor positions on performance, acceptance, damages, liability, warranties, guarantees, security, insurance, suspension, termination, and compensation—considering both counterparty capability and the practical value of each remedy.
Translate proposed terms into their effects on revenue, cost, schedule, contingency, cash flow, and sponsor exposure. Support negotiation priorities, management decisions, and coordination with appointed legal and specialist advisers.
A focused review examines the principal agreements, interface gaps, counterparty support, remedies, economic consequences, and retained risks to establish which positions require clarification, negotiation, mitigation, or specialist advice.
Any formal engagement is subject to an agreed written mandate.
