The Challenge

With a vast network and a growing list of projects under its responsibility, National Grid Electricity Transmission (NGET) needed a contract management system that could scale with its ambitions. The NGET Systems team, led by Stephen Widdicks, oversees projects involving multiple contractors, diverse stakeholders, and a high volume of contractual communications, all of which require accuracy, transparency, and speed.

The BI Toolkit Solution

NGET has been a Built Intelligence partner for over five years, relying on FastDraft™ to deliver secure, scalable, and intuitive contract administration. Designed to handle NEC and other complex contract workflows, FastDraft™ allows the NGET Systems team and its partners to manage compensation events, issue management instructions, and track contract performance, all from a single, centralised platform.

FastDraft™’s modern user interface, built-in workflows, and quick onboarding process make it easy for new users to get up to speed, whether they’re internal staff or external contractors. With over 1,000 users across the network, the system has become integral to how NGET keeps its electricity transmission projects on track.

What I think is the great thing about the FastDraft™ system is you’ve got all the contract administration tools in one place. Bringing that together with our partners makes things much more seamless and just faster to implement.
