Is the client ready to treat you as a supplier? You may see yourself differently, but if the client treats you the same you will struggle to stay outside IR35.

There's an element of the Business Entity Tests that focuses on this, as indicated above. However, the BETs have no legal standing in terms of status and there is no "Friday to Monday Test" in the legislation itself, only the implications your arrangement has in terms of being considered a disguised employee, for which the same criteria are applied to all arrangements, notably in terms of MoO and D&C. The contract is not a moot point if it doesn't pass inspection, but the actual working practices are what matters and will likely imply D&C and MoO (because they did in the past, by definition).

The Previous PAYE test
Has the current end client engaged you:
- on PAYE employment terms
- within the 12 months which ended on the last 31 March
- with no major changes to your working arrangements?
If you are doing the same work, the answer to this question is Yes.
Working at a different location does not count as a major change.
If you were working for a company that is connected to the current end client, that counts as working for the current end client. For example, if the two companies are part of the same group.
