Terms & Conditions

1. Scope of Services

1.1 Services Provided: We provide drafting and documentation services for electrical as-built drawings based on information supplied by the client, including marked-up drawings, photographs, and supporting documentation.

1.2 Basis of Drawings: All as-built drawings are prepared solely from information provided by the client. We do not independently verify installed works unless expressly agreed in writing.

1.3 No Design Responsibility: We do not provide electrical design services. As-built drawings reflect recorded installation only and do not confirm compliance with original design intent, the NCC, or Australian Standards unless explicitly stated in writing.

2. RPEQ Certification & Form 15

2.1 Conditional Availability: RPEQ certification and Form 15 sign-off are not automatic and are subject to: - Engineering review at quotation or engagement stage - Acceptance of scope by the RPEQ engineer - Provision of adequate evidence by the client (including photographs)

2.2 Evidence Requirements: The client acknowledges that certification may require photographic or other documentary evidence of installed works. Failure to provide required evidence may prevent certification.

2.3 No Guarantee of Certification: We do not guarantee that RPEQ certification or a Form 15 will be issued. Certification remains at the professional discretion of the RPEQ engineer.

2.4 Limitation of Certification Scope: Where issued, Form 15 certification relates only to as-built documentation, based on supplied information, and does not constitute independent verification of construction works.
RPEQ certification, where required, is provided by a registered external engineer and is subject to engineering review.

2.5 Certification Not Possible Due to Missing Information: Where RPEQ certification and/or Form 15 sign-off has been quoted but cannot be completed solely due to the client’s failure to provide required information or evidence (including but not limited to photographs, mark-ups, or supporting documentation):

  1. No RPEQ certification or Form 15 will be issued; and
  2. The client will not be charged for the RPEQ certification component of the quoted fee.

Drafting and documentation services already completed remain payable.

3. Client Responsibilities

3.1 Accuracy of Information: The client warrants that all information supplied is accurate, complete, and reflects the works performed.

3.2 Timely Supply: Delays in supplying information or evidence will delay delivery timelines.

3.3 Acceptance of Workflow: The client acknowledges that RPEQ involvement may be required at the quotation stage and agrees to cooperate with this process.

4. Revisions & Changes

4.1 Included Revisions: One (1) revision round is included unless otherwise stated in writing.

4.2 Additional Revisions: Additional revisions caused by incomplete, incorrect, or changed information will be charged as a variation.

4.3 Post-Certification Changes: Any changes requested after RPEQ certification will void the certification and require re-review.

5. Use of Drawings

5.1 Intended Use: As-built drawings are provided for handover documentation purposes only.

5.2 Prohibited Use: Drawings must not be used for construction, design modification, future works, or maintenance planning without independent verification.

5.3 Third-Party Reliance: No third party may rely on the drawings without our written consent.

6. Fees & Payment

6.1 Quoted Fees: Fees are quoted per project based on the scope and information provided.

6.2 Variations: Additional work resulting from scope changes, missing information, or increased certification requirements will be charged as a variation.

6.3 Certification Costs: RPEQ fees are included only where expressly stated in writing. Additional engineering time may be charged where requirements increase beyond the agreed scope.

7. Turnaround Times

7.1 Indicative Timeframes: Turnaround times are indicative only and commence once complete information is received.

7.2 Fast Track Services: Fast Track delivery is subject to prior engineering approval and timely client cooperation.

8. Limitation of Liability

8.1 Liability Cap: To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability is limited to the fees paid for the relevant services.

8.2 Excluded Losses: We are not liable for indirect, consequential, or economic loss, including project delays or third-party rejection.

8.3 Engineering Liability: Professional engineering liability rests with the RPEQ engineer in accordance with their professional obligations and agreed scope.

9. White Labelling

9.1 White-Label Delivery: Where requested, deliverables may be issued without our branding.

9.2 No Change to Responsibility: White-labelling does not alter responsibility, scope, or liability under these terms.

10. Governing Law

10.1 Jurisdiction: These terms are governed by the laws of Queensland, Australia.
