This is something in the schedule, not the contract.
I have paid a professional to review it, and they stated that this is not a problem as-is, but "to be careful in respects to regular reporting to the client – this could suggest that you are being supervised."
As it was not a problem clause, no alternative was provided. I was just trying to make it more vague than regular reporting. I could only come up with 'from time to time' which isn't ideal !

Reporting to Delivery Manager and assigned projects Project Managers on projects progress on regular basis

Best avoided.

Why do you want to go in to that level? Surely no one wants to be constrained to that level in a contract. If they ask you to do it more often you could pull the contract against them. They won't like that.
Or are you talking about something in the schedule? More information and some context can help questions like this.Last edited by northernladuk; 1 February 2017, 18:23.

How often do you want to report to them? Weekly? Biweekly?
If so put the time period in the contract. Personally I would leave it as it is as it is sufficiently vague that you can report every 2 days or every month as necessary.
Oh and if you are asking about contract clauses you need to pay a professional to review it not some random strangers on a internet forum.
