In Every Project or Works Contract
there lies the possibility for disputes due to varied interpretations,
different trade meanings, discrepancies and ambiguities in Contract Documents.
Those drafting contracts often lack knowledge of Technology, Methods and
Practices of the Industry.
Risk Reduction by Planned Risk
Transfer is the single most important purpose of this program. Past
participants have reported great benefits they achieved on their projects

Practical Procedures and Checklists Approach to Solving Drafting Problems.
Discussion, Implementation and Drafting Case Studies will be based on job
situations being used in the area for contracts project works.
Program Strategy
When we draft a contract - for each
Contract Situation 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 to take ourselves and which to shift to the other
parties.
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
Standard 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 contract to
disputes and delays
.
Done
Improperly we expose our contract 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.
