It gets busier in the ground every day. A better disposition is needed so that all assets are carefully registered and visualized. Legal frameworks are necessary for a good structure. The process of cables and pipelines in infrastructure projects has various, complex legal components.
GOconnectIT wants these processes to run smoothly and has experienced legal advisors with knowledge of the legal, financial and technical aspects. We are happy to share and let our clients benefit from our expertise, in order to achieve structural improvement. From assessing and drafting RFAs (requests for adaptation), project agreements and final decisions, to giving advice on the explanation of complex cost components. But also advice on things as breach of contract or excavation damage. Futhermore, we assist our clients in objection and appeal procedures.
When relocating cables and pipelines, it is important that agreements made are recorded clearly, consistently and correctly. This process also has various legal components in which GOconnectIT can support or advise.
To excavate carefully is a social responsibility. GOconnectIT advises on the issues arising from this, such as how to deal with assets without an owner and stagnation costs involved. If excavation damage occurs despite several precautionary measurements, we support our clients by assessing the legality of claims. This can either be a quick scan or a more detailed advisory report, and we also offer assistance in responding to liability claims.
Our aim is to use legal frameworks in such a way that you benefit from it and the process is supported. GOconnectIT is available for complex issues, but also as a source of information for independent questions regarding policy. For example, we help governments to correctly terminate long-term agreements with network operators.
We test the current policy of governments with regard to cables and pipelines, after which we may draw up new or adapted regulations or policies, such as a (technical) manual.
GOconnectIT provides clients with advice on liability issues, for example when a network operator does not comply with its obligations to replace cables and pipelines. Or when a excavator causes damage and the question arises who should pay for these costs.

It's challenging to connect the technical (like numbers and drawings) with the legal (in words) aspects.
