Construction Contract Risk Management - Practical Strategies for Avoiding Disputes

Introduction

The geopolitical and economic climate remains challenging for those involved in construction projects. Inflation, supply chain pressures, insolvency risk and changing legal and political landscapes continue to affect how contracts are managed and how disputes are resolved.

Problems on construction projects are rarely caused by one major issue. More often, relatively small problems build up over time (unclear contracts, processes not being followed, lack of records, etc.), which can result in risks not being effectively managed, relationships deteriorating and, ultimately, disputes.

This webinar focuses on helping parties recognise and manage risks, understand their contractual obligations and operate contracts in a way that reduces the likelihood of disputes arising. It is practical and experience led, aimed at giving attendees greater confidence in day to day contract management and helping them avoid common pitfalls on live projects.
