Strategic Contracting in Construction & Engineering Projects

Introduction

New for Autumn 2026, this Learn Live will help you to understand the key moving parts for a successful project and provide you with practical tools you can apply immediately on real-word C&E projects.

Learning will be illustrated through a commercial construction project case study which will progressively model the steps taken. The course will wrap up with a short section on managing expectations and project closure and tying up loose ends neatly.

If you are looking to learn more about project strategy and successful delivery, then this course is for you. Suitable for anyone in industry involved in C&E projects and their advisers (legal, insurance, financial etc.) who want to improve project outcomes, reduce risk exposure, and strengthen commercial performance.

By the end of the session, you will have a clearer framework for delivering projects more efficiently, avoiding common contractual pitfalls and improving commercial certainty across your portfolio.

What You Will Learn

Using the case study periodically, this live and interactive course will cover the following:

• Client project vision and early strategic choices
• Project mapping
• Contract choices
• Roles and responsibilities of project participants
• Project progress and completion
• Bolt-on considerations
• Managing expectations and project closure
• Summary and take aways
