It is sometimes said that the best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry. But while this idiom has certainly stood the test of time, it is advisable that you don't take it too literally. Specifically, the last three words, "often go awry," is certainly a damning indictment of careful planning. But the fact is, careful planning is a critical element of achieving any goal.
If you own a construction company, you only want to work with clients who are financially stable and capable of paying for your services. Due to the complexity, costs, and time needed to complete a construction project, you can ill-afford to take on a client who will be unable to come up with the cash necessary to complete a project.
A well-written contract is one that provides fair benefits and clear responsibilities for both parties. When you sign on the dotted line, you should do so secure in the knowledge that the agreement serves your best interests. And if all goes according to plan, both you and the other party will be well-served by your partnership.
