Partner programme conditions

Rule 01

The scope of each track

Each track sets out your role and the commitments to confirm with Blue Lemon Agent. You can pass on catalogue prices and current official information, with their scope and reservations. Custom prices and client-specific commitments require confirmation.

Rule 02

Individual financial terms

If your track provides for remuneration, its terms are discussed with you after qualification. They are formalised before any activity in the documents intended for you.

Written Before the mission

The role and the applicable terms are set in an individual agreement.

Clear A precise basis

The calculation rules, the schedule and special cases are detailed in that agreement.

Private Protected access

Each partner views the documents that concern them in their area.

Rule 03

Register and protect a deal

A deal is registered with the required consent and is subject to a decision by Blue Lemon Agent. Lead times and special cases are set out in the agreement applicable to the track.

3. 

   Step 03

Rule 04

Contract and governing law

This page presents the public principles of the programme. Your signed individual agreement is the reference for your commitments, your financial terms and the rules of your partnership. This page is not the partnership agreement: in the event of any discrepancy, the signed agreement and the decisions it carries prevail.

Rule 05

Custom agents

Custom work is never imposed. The wording used is this: If the Blue Lemon Agent catalogue does not properly cover your need, Blue Lemon Agent can study a custom agent. This possibility remains subject to validation of its architecture, feasibility, compliance and pricing. And eight practices around it are expressly forbidden: automatically steering an application towards a custom agent, automatically steering a deal towards a custom agent, presenting a custom agent as necessary, showing a lead time before validation, showing a capability before validation, showing a price before validation, creating a sellable listing before the four gates and creating an order link before the four gates

Rule 06

Ranking, sensitive professions and governing law

A partner recommendation is ordered by these criteria: competence in the need expressed, professional qualifications, where the need requires them, geographical proximity, the client's working language, experience of the sector, stated availability, security guarantees, insurance cover, verifiable references, measured satisfaction of previous clients, recorded incidents and absence of conflicts of interest. Three are excluded: the fee we would earn, the expected remuneration and how long the partner contract has run. A ranking driven by remuneration is no longer a recommendation.

Some professions and some funding arrangements fall under a specific regime, reviewed case by case: lawyer, chartered accountant, notary, statutory auditor, healthcare professional, public body, chamber of commerce or trade body and operation involving public funds. That list is closed in one direction only: a case that does not appear on it is reviewed in the same way, never treated as permitted by default.

French law, subject to the mandatory rules and overriding provisions applicable locally. That choice does not, in particular, override: overriding mandatory provisions, mandatory rules, sector rules, data protection, tax, VAT, employment law and local obligations. A consulting firm's partnership agreement is adapted to its country of residence; the other tracks receive their individual agreement, supplied before signature.
