NEC valuation basics for site teams

A plain-English primer on valuations, CEs, and measurement under NEC4.

NEC rewards early warning and clear records. Site teams that treat measurement as monthly hygiene — not a scramble before valuation day — protect cash flow.

Know which events need a compensation event notice, and keep quantities linked to the activity schedule or BOQ your contract actually uses.

If your records cannot explain a change in one page, the assessment will take longer than the work.
