Drafting Engineering Consultancy Contracts and Managing Professional Liability
A practical programme in engineering consultancy contracts for professionals who are accountable for results, not just awareness.
Course Overview
Legal exposure on engineering consultancy contracts accumulates through routine decisions taken without advice. The commercial risk in this area of legal and contractual practice usually sits in clauses nobody reads until something fails. It is pitched for practitioners with responsibility for this strand of legal and contractual practice, not for observers of it. Improvement in engineering consultancy contracts stalls when it depends on one capable individual rather than a defined method. Mature organisations treat the legal and contractual practice discipline as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in this aspect of legal and contractual practice rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. The outcome is a practitioner who can hold a position on engineering consultancy contracts and revise it on evidence. It establishes a shared vocabulary for the practice within legal and contractual practice so that teams can disagree productively about it. Participants finish with a short, specific brief on the legal and contractual practice discipline ready to put in front of a decision maker.
