Before an engagement begins
A website inquiry is not acceptance of these business terms and creates no payment obligation. These standard terms apply only when expressly included in a quotation or written agreement accepted by authorized representatives. A signed master services agreement controls as stated below. No candidate liability cap, interest rate, fee-shifting arrangement or arbitration provision is activated by this page.
1. Validity And Acceptance
This quotation is valid for 30 calendar days from its issue date unless otherwise stated. The client identified in the quotation is the contracting customer, and Wednesday Group Inc is the Consultant, using the Wednesday Group brand. Acceptance must be made in writing by an authorized representative and must identify the quotation and any attached agreement being accepted. Payment alone is not acceptance of additional terms first introduced on a later invoice. Work begins only after written acceptance, schedule confirmation and receipt of any agreed deposit.
2. Scope And Changes
Services are limited to the deliverables, assumptions, exclusions and milestones stated in this quotation and the applicable statement of work (SOW). Implementation, ongoing operational management and additional revisions are excluded unless expressly included. Changes require written approval by both parties describing the added work, fees and schedule before that work begins. No revenue, savings, sales volume, staffing outcome or regulatory approval is guaranteed.
3. Professional And Operational Boundaries
The engagement is business advisory only. It does not provide legal opinions, tax advice, insurance coverage advice, insurance sales, solicitation, negotiation or placement. Any HR, legal or insurance-related activity under this advisory scope is limited to permissible administrative coordination, factual information gathering and referral to independently retained, appropriately qualified professionals.
Recruitment or candidate placement, employment or dispatch of workers, payroll services, professional employer organization or co-employment services, freight brokerage, freight forwarding, carriage and custody of goods are not included. Any separately proposed regulated service requires a separate written scope and verification of applicable licensing or registration before it is offered or performed. Nothing in this quotation authorizes unlicensed activity.
4. Client Inputs And Decisions
The client will provide timely, accurate information, authorized access and necessary decisions, and will identify any legal restrictions on sharing the information. Consultant may rely reasonably on client-supplied information unless verification is expressly included in the SOW, while remaining responsible for exercising reasonable professional care. The client retains management decisions and implementation responsibility. Client-caused delays may require a revised schedule; additional fees require an approved change order.
5. Fees And Payment
Unless the accepted SOW states otherwise, invoices are payable in U.S. dollars within 30 calendar days of the invoice date. Any deposit or milestone payment must be specified in the accepted SOW and will be credited as stated there. Applicable taxes, if any, will be separately identified. Third-party fees and reimbursable expenses require prior written approval.
The client should raise a good-faith invoice dispute in writing within 15 calendar days after receipt, identifying the disputed item and reason. This review period does not automatically waive claims or non-waivable rights. Undisputed amounts remain payable on time. No late fee or contractual collection-cost obligation is created unless expressly stated in an accepted written agreement and permitted by law.
If an undisputed payment remains overdue, Consultant may suspend affected services only after written notice and a 10-calendar-day opportunity to cure. Any resulting schedule adjustment will be communicated. Suspension does not remove either party's accrued obligations or non-waivable legal duties.
6. Cancellation And Closeout
Unless the accepted SOW states otherwise, either party may terminate future services on 10 calendar days' written notice. The client remains responsible for services actually performed through termination and previously approved, reasonably documented third-party commitments that cannot reasonably be cancelled. Consultant will apply deposits to amounts properly earned or due and refund any unearned balance within 30 calendar days after the final accounting. No automatic charge for the entire unperformed balance is imposed.
7. Deliverables And Information
Deliverables are prepared for the client's internal business use for the purpose stated in the SOW, not for third-party reliance. Both parties will use reasonable care to protect non-public information received for the engagement and use it only as needed to perform the agreement, subject to lawful disclosures and agreed exceptions. Do not send privileged legal materials or sensitive employee records without a separately agreed handling arrangement. Consultant does not promise that communications are protected by attorney-client privilege. Ownership, third-party rights and any broader distribution rights must be addressed in the signed engagement agreement.
8. Performance And Governing Documents
Consultant will perform the agreed advisory services with reasonable professional care. Forecasts and examples are not warranties of results. Nothing in these terms excludes fraud, gross negligence, willful misconduct or liability and remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded.
A mutually signed master services agreement controls in the event of a conflict unless it expressly permits a signed SOW to vary the relevant term. The SOW controls project-specific scope, deliverables and fees to that extent. These quotation terms do not override an existing signed agreement. Invoices do not modify these documents. Any limitation of liability, fee-shifting provision or dispute-resolution agreement must be expressly accepted as part of the engagement documents, not introduced for the first time after work starts.
Invoice terms
Payment is due in U.S. dollars by the due date stated on this invoice, subject to the payment terms previously agreed in writing. Please reference the invoice number with your payment. Applicable taxes and previously approved reimbursable expenses, if any, are itemized separately.
Please notify Wednesday Group in writing of any good-faith billing dispute within 15 calendar days after receipt, identifying the item and reason for the dispute. This is a requested review period, not a forfeiture of non-waivable rights or a conclusive acceptance of the services. Undisputed amounts remain due as agreed.
Any late-payment interest, collection costs, service suspension or other remedy applies only to the extent previously agreed in an enforceable written engagement agreement and permitted by applicable law. This invoice does not unilaterally add those obligations, amend the scope of work or replace the parties' agreement. If this invoice conflicts with a signed agreement, that agreement controls. Please contact Wednesday Group promptly if you believe an invoice date or amount differs from the agreement.
