The nature of the services is outcome- and advice-led, with requirements varying depending on legal, commercial and contractual issues that arise throughout the engagement. As performance cannot be appropriately or meaningfully assessed using standard quantitative KPIs, the contract will instead be managed through regular review meetings, milestone delivery, responsiveness and the quality of legal advice provided.",
