A frequent speaker and author on NEC contracts, Shy is widely regarded as a leading specialist in the field and is highlighted in Chambers & Partners for “know[ing] NEC contracts back to front." In 2020, Shy was appointed as a member of the NEC Contract Board in recognition of his experience in advising on the NEC contract and his involvement in projects using NEC.

It represents the interests of internationally active European contractors towards the EU, international organisations, financing institutions and society at large.
