This one-day workshop is a closer review of the tendering stage of a project, and how then risk is managed throughout the life of a project. It will review the documents that the Client puts into a Contractor’s tender, as well as the considerations that the Contractor should consider when they are preparing their tender return. It is very important that a Contractor understands the risks and obligations that they are signing up to with any new contract and be able to price accordingly. It will consider any elements that are new or different compared to NEC3 contracts that people will have used previously.
The session will consider definition of risk and risk management before looking at the traditional risk registers that often get produced and reviewed generally across construction projects. This will be compared with the Early Warning Register, which is a key aspect within the NEC suite of contracts as to its use and understanding in identifying and managing the risks associated with a project. The session will consider the different ways that risk can be altered throughout the contract and the considerations that the Parties should make when allocating risk or pricing risk accordingly.
You will learn about:
The main ECC contract documents that make up a signed contract
Choice of primary and secondary options and associated pricing document and how they alter Contractor’s risk
Ways of allocating risk through the different contract documents
