So, we are a commercial MEP subcontractor. We currently utilize a master service agreement with our subcontractors, with a project-specific contract for any hired work. Our view is that this enables us to have a standard agreement in place with anyone that performs work for us agreed to ahead of time, thus making the project-specific contract (and any negotiations) more efficient.
We'd like to now start doing the same with our GCs: having a standard agreement in place, with project-specific agreements, as well. Do any GCs currently have agreements like this in place with your subcontractors? If so, have you seen this be productive arrangement for both parties?
