IPENZ Managing Variations & Claims in a Project/Contract Environment - Wellington
Description:
MANAGING VARIATIONS AND CLAIMS IN A PROJECT/CONTRACT ENVIRONMENT
Contracts form the basis of most projects, where there is a supply of a product or a service for a fee. Practitioners need to gain a good understanding of the nature of contractual relationship and be prepared for possible pitfalls. A well developed and managed contract is a crucial component to ensure the successful delivery of a project.
Learning Outcomes
This one-day course introduces participants to the principles of managing changes and variations in a project environment, so as to ensure equitable delivery of their project. Participants will gain a good understanding of changes and variations relating to legal and management issues governing contractual relationships in a wide scope of application areas. Upon completion of the course, participants will be able to:
• Evaluate and take account of project constraints and delays
• Determine a contractual baseline as a basis for project execution and control
• Grasp the legal essentials of a contract, specifically in terms of the doctrine of consideration
• Understand what is expected of someone who has to administer the execution of a contract
• Prepare for possible pitfalls and incorporate changes and variations within a contract environment
This course aligns with elements 2, 11 and 12 of the Competence Standard for professional engineers, engineering technicians and technologists.
