M&E packages sit at the mercy of preceding trades. When they run late you wait, when the client changes their mind you rework — and neither gets charged because the paperwork burden is too high mid-project.
Every one of these is a chargeable event. Rekkord captures them at source and prices them against your contract.
Preceding trade not complete — crew stood down for 4 hours.
Containment reroute after signed-off design change.
Coordinated services drawing issued after installation began.
Riser locked out by another package — crew redeployed.
Clash resolution work not in the sub-contract scope.
Power not available — repeat commissioning visit required.
