Assess regulatory and compliance obligations triggered by engineering, procurement and construction contracts.
Engineering, Procurement and Construction Contracts
A structured, applied course in engineering, procurement and construction contracts — designed to be used the week you return.
Course Overview
A contract governing engineering, procurement and construction contracts that nobody administers is a document, not a control. The cost of getting construction contracts wrong is rarely the judgment; it is the years spent reaching it. The content is relevant to those who own the legal and contractual practice capability and to those who are held accountable for its results. The most reliable predictor of sound engineering, procurement and construction contracts is whether anyone reviews it when nothing has gone wrong. The outcome is a practitioner who can hold a position on this aspect of legal and contractual practice and revise it on evidence. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in construction contracts rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. The course gives participants a defensible structure for engineering, procurement and construction contracts and the judgement to adapt it. Moving construction contracts from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. Work concludes with a self-assessment of the practice within legal and contractual practice that participants can repeat annually.

Manage variations and change to engineering, procurement and construction contracts without losing contractual position.
Prepare the evidential record supporting decisions taken under construction contracts.
Integrate engineering, procurement and construction contracts into existing management routines rather than running it separately.
