Identifying and Assessing your Contracting Options for Optimum Project Delivery

Why should you attend this Alternative Contract Selection Masterclass?

The balance of the construction industry has shifted. The GFC has seen a sellers market turn into a buyers and at least at present, this has heralded a change in contract strategies and risk allocation for major infrastructure and construction projects. Value for Money is king and with the release of the Treasury report – In Pursuit of Additional Value, Project Owners are realizing the value of relationship contracting but incorporating the advantages within more traditional and hard dollar contracts.

Alternative Contract Selection will give you the skills to correctly select and develop the best contract model for you to deliver the project/s that you are financially investing in, and embarking upon.

By selecting an appropriate model, whether that is traditional, hybrid, alliance or relationship style contracting, you will be able to better ensure the optimum delivery of your project.

Selecting and managing contracts throughout the project lifecycle is essential to realize the infamous Value for Money paradigm and by attending Alternative Contract Selection 2010 you can be sure to gain critical knowledge on:

  • How different contract models exercise Cost control from conception through to completion
  • ECI, ECE and ETI - what is the difference and when to use
  • Hybrid models – Dual TOC, ECI – How and when to use to create best value
  • Back to basics alternatives: Construct/D&C/DCM/Contractor Management with relationship/cooperative contracting
  • Strategic risk management for project owners
  • Alliance contracts for ongoing service contracts - when to use and issues to consider
