Understanding Your Contract: The Foundation for Successful Projects

Understanding the purpose and content of a professional services agreement is an essential skill in project management. The contract establishes the intent and parameters of the project and confirms the roles, responsibilities and expectations of the parties. A fair and balanced agreement sets the stage for a productive relationship between you and your client and fosters a positive experience throughout the project.

This comprehensive program provides an overview of risk management fundamentals, the contract review process and the typical organization of the owner-design professional agreement. You will examine key contract elements: initial project information, scope of services, client responsibilities, cost of the Work, general terms and conditions, and compensation.

There is a brief review of the General Conditions of the Contract for Construction; and, depending upon the length of the workshop, a detailed look at up to 20 clauses in a professional services agreement including additional terms and conditions, specific disclaimers and exclusions, and special circumstances.
