PROGRAM CONTENT

On each Contract we draw on our experience and knowledge to compile a list of Potential Risks on this work, we then decide as to which of these risks or contingencies we would like the contractor to bear. In Order to make an effective decision as to what duties and obligations should be contractually shifted, and how they can be shifted, it is first necessary to appreciate what these duties are and how they are normally allocated. Next we must consider the Contracting Methods and Contract Forms available and their Associated Risks. And then discuss how we can Draft Contracts to Contractually Shift some of these to others.

Done Improperly we expose our project to disputes and delays. We interpret the contract conditions literally, only to find that the legal system may not support our position, as it tends to rely more on considerations of Prevention of Injustice and Promoting Fairness. This situation arises because we may be unaware of the Legal Interpretation Rules and Doctrines involved.

  • Duties Responsibilities of the Parties to Project Contracts.

  • Understanding Contract Conditions. Expressed and Implied Contractual Responsibilities. Changes Doctrine. Notice Requirements including when waived. Responsibilities of Contractor, Owner and Consultant on the Project. What is "Fair and Reasonable"?
