Our subcontractor applies travel/subsistence labour rates every time we ask them to do some additional work.
Also, when the rate excluding travel/subsistence can be used, as it seems this is never a case and since the rate allowing for travel/subsistence has been added into the contract.
Does the subcontractor have to provide any backup for it to justify higher rate application?
On the other hand, surely there should be a mechanism to justify which rate can be used as both of them (including and excluding travel/subsistence ) is in the subcontract?
