This is information like customer lists, business strategies, research & development notes, statistics about a website, and other information that is private. The Coach promises to treat this information as if it is the Coach's own confidential information. The Coach may use this information to do its job under this Contract, but not for anything else.

The Coach promises that it will not share confidential information with a third party, unless the Client gives the Coach written permission first.

The Coach's responsibilities only stop if the Coach can show any of the following: (i) that the information was already public when the Coach came across it; (ii) the information became public after the Coach came across it, but not because of anything the Coach did or didn't do; (iii) the Coach already knew the information when the Coach came across it and the Coach didn't have any obligation to keep it secret; (iv) a third party provided the Coach with the information without requiring that the Coach keep it a secret; or (v) the Coach created the information on its own, without using anything belonging to the Client.

6.3 Third-Party Confidential Information. It's possible the Client and the Coach each have access to confidential information that belongs to third parties. The Client and the Coach each promise that it will not share with the other party confidential information that belongs to third parties, unless it is allowed to do so.

9.4. Noticies.

(a) Over the course of this Contract, one party may need to send a notice to the other party. For the notice to be valid, it must be in writing and delivered in one of the following ways: personal delivery, email, or certified or registered mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested). The notice must be delivered to the party's address listed at the end of this Contract or to another address that the party has provided in writing as an appropriate address to receive notice.

(b) The timing of when a notice is received can be very important. To avoid confusion, a valid notice is considered received as follows: (i) if delivered personally, it is considered received immediately; (ii) if delivered by email, it is considered received upon acknowledgement of receipt; (iii) if delivered by registered or certified mail (postage prepaid, return receipt requested), it is considered received upon receipt as indicated by the date on the signed receipt. If a party refuses to accept notice or if notice cannot be delivered because of a change in address for which no notice was given, then it is considered received when the notice is rejected or unable to be delivered. If the notice is received after 5:00pm on a business day at the location specified in the address for that party, or on a day that is not a business day, then the notice is considered received at 9:00am on the next business day.

9.5 Severability. This section deals with what happens if a portion of the Contract is found to be unenforceable. If that's the case, the unenforceable portion will be changed to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, unless that change is not permitted by law, in which case the portion will be disregarded. If any portion of the Contract is changed or disregarded because it is unenforceable, the rest of the Contract is still enforceable.

9.6 Signatures. The Client and the Coach must sign this document using Bonsai's e-signing system. These electronic signatures count as originals for all purposes.

9.7 Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this document shall be governed by the laws of the United States of America.

9.8 Entire Contract. This Contract represents the parties' final and complete understanding of this job and the subject matter discussed in this Contract. This Contract supersedes all other contracts (both written and oral) between the parties.

Project Management Statement Of Work

Here you should describe each service you provide for each construction project. Every service should have its own line to make it clear. As a project manager, you may charge your client per hour for your services. Any other services provided you will want to include here.

If you are working at different locations for a client ensure you enter the job location for each service provided. Include technical details and project specifics.

Once you have entered all of the services you will need to total up the overall expense of the assignment.

Additional Charges

If there are any more items utilized in your services, you must note them on your itemized list. Including any fees for extra services.

For example, if you have priced scoping a job out for a certain amount of hours and your client changes the scope of the work. You must add this charge for your additional services.

Breakdown Of The Gross/Net Totals

You should first of all show how much the Gross total is. This will be the sum of all services, labor, and material charges.

Once you have shown this the tax can then be added on top of the gross amount. This will give you the Net amount. By showing them separately, you can show the client how the charges are added up.

Apply any discounts you wish to give your client before including taxes, to the gross amount. By giving a discount on the gross rather than the net total, your client will save money.

Payment Details

Ensure that the payment terms you specify in your scope of work template are reflected in it. Both of you will benefit if you offer a range of payment choices to your customers. Whichever option is most practical for them can be chosen. This will speed up payment to your business.
