Administering PPP & BOT Projects to Completion

PPP and BOT Projects have been the Government Method of choice to enable Rapid Economic and Service Development even in the face of Limited Resources. While Drafted Contracts have provisions meant to ensure these projects meet the Intended Objectives including Local Community Development, Service Improvement, Efficient Operations and Reasonable Costs for the Users.

But often these projects face issues related to Delays, Disruptions, Cost Escalations and Project and Service Quality Problems.

This program is designed to help you Administer the Contracts such that the intended objectives are met without causing unnecessary additional recoverable and unrecoverable cost liability on the Project.

BOT & PPP projects are subject to many risks and unforeseen situations that may arise during the project implementation. This Program will show how these events must be mitigated, event documented, evidence of time and other impact recorded, and, cost and time claims resolved.

This program is intended for BOT and PPP Project Contract Administrators, Legal Staff, Supervision Professionals, Managers, Coordinators, Auditors & Project Managers.

This program can be used to Build and Train: BOT Project Planning Teams, Project Execution Teams, Project Management and Administration Teams.
