Introduction

One result of contract and project management is the proactive identification and management of risks to owners and contractors so that both parties are satisfied with the project outcome. Adequate project and contract management cannot "eliminate" risks on their own, but it is necessary to identify risks and opportunities, identify the person in charge of each sector, and determine the consequences of risk manifestation.

The following are the highlights of this training course:

  • Knowledge to reposition project management and contracts from the tactical/reactive to the more proactive/strategic focus

  • Crucial understandings of the risk mitigation procedure

  • How to analyze both the opportunities and threats encountering projects and contracts from both a bottom-up and top-down perspective using a verified risk management process ?

  • Skills in allocating contract and procurement risk

  • Ability to identify the warning signs of cost overruns, schedule delays, and poor quality, as early as possible in the project to minimize or mitigate the impact

This training course is split into two modules:

MODULE I - Contract Risk Management & Compliance

Each module is structured and can be taken as a stand-alone training course; however, delegates will maximize their benefits by taking Modules 1 and 2 back-to-back as a 2-week training course.
