Course Overview
Most contractual disputes about tender documents and specifications are decided by what was written, not what was intended. The commercial risk in documents and specifications usually sits in clauses nobody reads until something fails. It establishes a shared vocabulary for this area of legal and contractual practice so that teams can disagree productively about it. It is designed for mixed groups, so that tender documents and specifications is examined from more than one functional angle. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a contract template for the practice within legal and contractual practice as they go. A common pattern is strong design of documents and specifications paired with weak follow-through. Participants develop a defensible line of reasoning for the choices they make about tender documents and specifications. Mature organisations treat documents and specifications as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. The programme ends where implementation begins, with the legal and contractual practice discipline broken into steps someone can start on Monday.
