STELLMANN CERTIFIED INSTALLER PROGRAM

Program Policy Reference and Updates

  1. The Contractor acknowledges and agrees that clauses under the heading "Contractor Agreement" will also apply under the Stellmann Certified Installer Program. 
  2. The parties agree that operational items, including but not limited to rates, caps, and templates, will be set out in a separate Program Policy or Schedule referenced in this document.
  3. Stellmann may update the Program Policy on 7 days' notice; any material changes will entitle the Contractor to terminate the Stellmann Certified Installer Program, if not accepted.

Certification Tiers

  1. Upon certification the Contractor holds Silver status, unless and until it is awarded Gold status by the Company. Silver status gives the Contractor the benefits set out in this Agreement, except first offer of routed leads, priority reapply leads and Gold pricing.
  2. Gold status is awarded by the Company and cannot be purchased. The Company assesses Contractors against the eligibility set out in the Program Policy, as amended from time to time, including completed work the Contractor has sourced itself, proof supplied to the Company, and installation logging. Gold status is open to Contractors wherever they work, and there is no limit on the number of Contractors who hold it.
  3. Gold status gives the Contractor first offer of routed leads within the geographic area determined by the Company under the Program Policy, priority reapply leads, Gold pricing on the products set out in the Program Policy, and the other Gold benefits set out in the Program Policy.
  4. The Company may review Gold status quarterly. A Contractor that fails to meet the Gold Criteria at a review will receive a written warning and retain Gold status. If the Contractor fails to meet the Gold Criteria again at the next review, its status will revert to Silver. The Company may also suspend or remove Gold status under the "Lead Routing and Success Fees" clause.
  5. The Company's determination regarding Gold status is final. Neither Silver status nor Gold status guarantees any number of leads, jobs or revenue.
  6. A Contractor certified before 1 January 2027 whom the Company notifies in writing that it holds Gold status keeps Gold status until 30 June 2027, provided it has accepted this Agreement before 1 January 2027. After that date the quarterly review applies. A Contractor who has not accepted this Agreement by 1 January 2027 will be classified as Silver status and will not be eligible to hold or retain Gold status until it has accepted this Agreement.
  7. The Company may amend the Program Policy from time to time by providing not less than 7 days' written notice to Contractors

Program Fee

  1. The Contractor must pay the Program Fee as set out in Schedule A Item 2(a) or (b).

  4. The Company shall have the sole and absolute discretion to determine, amend, and apply different rates, fees, or pricing structures for any territory, region, market segment, or contractor as it deems appropriate from time to time.
  5. The Contractor acknowledges and agrees that rates may vary between territories or contractors and that the Company's determination in this regard shall be final and binding.

    1. suspend the Contractor from the Program (including the Stellmann Certification Portal) if payment is overdue seven (7) days; and

  2. Only Active Contractors (as defined in clause 7 under “Program Fee”) are eligible for lead routing.
  3. The Company offers a routed lead first to Contractors who hold Gold status and work within reasonable travel of the site, as the Company decides. It may offer the lead to a Contractor who holds Silver status where no Contractor holding Gold status is within reasonable travel, or where each one offered the lead declines it or does not answer within the accept window.
  4. The Company reserves the right to pause or revoke lead routing for non-compliance of these terms.
  5. For routed “handover” leads where the Contractor contracts directly with the client, a success fee at the percentage rate set out in Schedule A Item 6 of the job revenue is payable by the Contractor to the Company upon award of the job. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, this success fee is added to the Contractor’s quoted price and is not deducted from the Contractor’s margin. The success fee may be netted against any kit credits.
  6. A Contractor offered a routed lead must accept or decline it within 4 business hours of the offer. Acceptance of the routed lead constitutes confirmation of the Contractor's availability for the proposed works.
  7. A Contractor who accepts a routed lead must contact the client by phone or email within 24 hours of accepting it to book the installation, and notify the Company of the contact, in writing. The first time a Contractor does not do so in a quarter, the Company will give it a written warning. If it happens again in the same quarter, the Company may remove the Contractor's Gold status, or stop offering it routed leads.
  8. If a Contractor accepts a routed lead and then does not complete the job as agreed, the Company may immediately suspend or remove the Contractor's Gold status, or stop offering it routed leads. This does not apply where the Contractor declined the lead before accepting it, where a genuine emergency prevented the work, or where the client cancelled.
