The basis of a successful project is a first class contract, one that defines clearly what work is to be done, by whom, when and to what standards. Contract Strategy for Successful Project Management enables the creation of contracts which record the obligations of the signatories, allocates risk in the most appropriate manner and is seen as fair by all parties. When anticipated and unanticipated problems arise, or when variations are necessary, or when schedules overrun, a well written contract is invaluable to resolving difficulties as painlessly as possible. The guidance in this publication has been drawn up by the Association for Project Management's Special Interest Group on Contracts and Procurement. It is designed for Project Managers working in all industries and on all sizes of project. Issues covered include the following:
- Procurement and Contract Strategy
- Number and Scope of Contracts
- Risks
- Terms of Payment
- Contract Planning Contractor Selection
- Contract Management
- The Lessons of Contracts
