(the Co.= is) to take on the project co-ordination as lead contractor Explanation: The Company 'to take on' vs. over the project is engineering contract and/or works insurance policy - and without a main verb - is telegrammatic shorthand that is lost, even on some legal cllients who ought to know better. Example sentence(s):

manages the project as an umbrella company Explanation: Explanations here: https://www.abcportage.com/umbrella-company/french-umbrella-... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 19 hrs (2019-04-19 05:42:28 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- If this is a contract, I would not use some vague "general contractor" term, because this is very specific, and it specifies the form of employment of the contract. |

Reference: Portage Reference information: It's a very specific set up and I'm not sure if we have it in the UK. I did see the translation here "umbrella company" and it might be the closest thing we have but I'm not sure about that either. https://www.itg.fr/portage-salarial/introduction.html |
