NEC4 Deadlines Tracked, Before They're Missed

Send us your early warning register and compensation event log. Mirage tracks every notification against your contract's own deadlines and flags what's due in 48 hours.

Would be Mirage's first UK NEC4 deployment, built on the same discrepancy-flagging agents already running at OCBM and a US rail contractor.

THE REALITY

Early warnings and compensation events tracked in a spreadsheet drift out of date the moment a new instruction or a programme update lands. By the time a missed deadline surfaces, the time-bar has often already passed, and what should have been a routine notification becomes a dispute.

WHAT MIRAGE DOES

From scattered notifications to a tracked, deadline-aware register

01

Logs every early warning and compensation event

Notifications, instructions, and quotations are indexed as they're issued, each one linked to the deadline your contract sets for a response.

02

Flags what's due before it's overdue

Approaching and missed deadlines are surfaced to the Project Manager or commercial lead directly, with the notification, the date it was raised, and the deadline that applies -- not discovered during a monthly review.

03

Cross-checks against the accepted programme

Compensation events are checked against programme updates, so an event that should already be reflected in the accepted programme but isn't gets flagged, connecting to the contract administration tools already in place.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Not on a named NEC4 project specifically -- this would be Mirage's first UK NEC4 deployment. The discrepancy-flagging and deadline-tracking agents involved are the same ones already running in production for change order and document consistency work at OCBM and a US rail contractor, applied here to NEC4's early warning and compensation event mechanics.

No. The Project Manager's decisions -- accepting or rejecting a quotation, assessing a compensation event -- stay with the Project Manager. Mirage tracks what's been notified, what's due, and what deadline applies, so those decisions are made with full information instead of a missed notification surfacing after the time-bar has passed.

Yes. Every early warning and compensation event notification is logged against the deadline your contract sets for a response or quotation, and what's approaching or overdue is flagged before it becomes a time-bar dispute rather than after.

Yes, based on how your contract's early warning register and instructions are structured. Anything ambiguous is flagged for the Project Manager to classify rather than decided automatically.

Yes. Programme updates are cross-checked against outstanding compensation events, so an event that should already be reflected in the accepted programme but isn't gets flagged.

Yes. Notifications and deadline tracking connect to the document management and contract administration tools already in place on the project. No new system for the commercial team to learn.

Under four weeks on average to a production deployment: indexing your contract's deadlines and current early warning register first, then a parallel pilot on one active project.

Pricing starts with a fixed-price pilot run against one active project's early warning register and compensation events, so you see what gets flagged before committing to anything larger. After that, it moves to an annual subscription priced by volume, quoted in your first conversation with us.
