INTRODUCTION
While South African construction professionals may, in the past, have “got by” with a knowledge of our local construction contracts such a knowledge is no longer sufficient. The construction arena is becoming more global as professionals look beyond our borders for work and as increasing numbers of employers use international forms of contract such as FIDIC and NEC/ECC.
In this two day seminar we examine the key differences between the standard construction contracts currently in use and compare the approaches taken by these contracts to important issues. Advice on fitting the contract to the project will be given and the advantages and disadvantages of the various forms of contract discussed.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
- Construction Professionals: Engineers, Architects and Project Managers acting on behalf of Employers
- Construction Contract Administrator and Contract Managers
- Employer organisations including local government
- Anyone involved in advising on procurement strategies in the construction industries
