Why you should attend this workshop?

This one-day workshop introduces you to the key aspects of producing and managing a programme during the life of a project. NEC contracts have raised the bar compared to other forms of contract in terms of the importance, quality and level of detail of programming expected and the contractual part it plays in assessing change and delays. The workshop will demonstrate that administration of the programme is pivotal to the success of any NEC project.

This workshop will provide a thorough review of general planning aspects and provide detailed information on how to manage the key programming matters in accordance with the contract. It will also identify specific new clauses that have been introduced with NEC4 that relate to programme, early warnings and compensation events Attendees of this course will have a much clearer understanding of the intent of the specific clauses related to programme and compensation events and in practical terms how they should administer them for the benefit of all parties on a particular project.

You will learn about:
• programme requirements within ECC contract
• the acceptance process and its contractual significance
• different types of float that are required to be demonstrated and who owns them
• early warning process in relation to programme
• compensation events and effect on Completion Date
• programme submissions + reporting Recommended for This workshop is recommended for anyone who would come in contact with the contract programme, including in particular project managers, contract managers, quantity surveyors, planners, consultants, within any employer/contractor/subcontractor/consultant organization.

Whilst each workshop does have handout notes issued in advance, it is beneficial for attendees to have access to an NEC contract so that they can check wording of the actual clauses in line with the presentations and case studies. Ideally this would be the NEC4 version of the Engineering and Construction Contract (ECC) or Engineering and Construction Subcontract (ECS) but access to an NEC3 version would alternatively still be useful.”
