I'm doing some work with a small UK consultancy at the moment (supplied to their customer on their customer's site) and I'm reading some concerning language such as
"Client's internal project team will manage the delivery of this SOW throughout"
"The Supplier shall deliver capability as directed by the Client" (Supplier in this context being the small consultancy and Client being their customer)
I also appear to be a named resource in the staffing plan for the statement of work.
Gut instinct is get the hell of out of dodge.
But am I being flippant?
I'm trying to see things from the consultancy's side and finding it difficult to imagine how a statement of work would otherwise be written with sympathy to contractors considering themselves outside of IR35.
