Introduction
Course overview
Traditional adversarial contracting often leads to disputes, defensive behaviour and poor outcomes for everyone involved. Partnering and collaborative contracting approaches aim to align the interests of clients, contractors, consultants and suppliers so that they work together to solve problems, share risk and reward fairly and deliver better value.
This Partnering and Collaborative Contracting training course explains how collaborative models work in practice and how to make them succeed. Participants learn about partnering charters and principles, collaborative contract forms, early warning and joint risk management, target cost and pain-gain mechanisms, alliancing, governance structures, behaviours and trust, and how to measure the success of collaboration.
The course is relevant to construction, infrastructure, engineering and long-term service contracts.
