11/02/2025 – Practice Guides updates for February 2025

Key points

  • We have used the quieter days of January to review and update 13 of our Practice Guides.
  • Topics where we made substantial updates include Dispute Resolution; Submitting Tenders; Specification and Product Selection; and Substitutions.

Our suite of Practice Guides are a handy resource to help understand and manage some common risk areas in the industry. They cover over 50 topics, from Novation to Unfair Contract Terms, and we use the quieter months of January to update a selection of them each year.

In January 2025, we have made updates to 13 of our Practice Guides.

For these five topics, we made substantial amendments to account for changes in legislation or case law:

Whereas our changes to these topics were only minor: Building Information Modelling; Collateral Warranties; Copyright and Moral Rights; Indemnities; Public Private Partnerships; Single Project Insurance; Standard of Care; and Working on your Own Terms.

Professional indemnity insurance clients of Planned Cover can download the amended Practice Guides from our website here using their login. Please contact your Planned Cover insurance broker with any questions, who will forward them on to our team as appropriate.
