What is Covered in this Program
Project Plans have Many Associated Risks that cause uncertainty in ultimate time and cost. Most of the Risks are known but the probability of occurrence varies with the actual project details and circumstances. Some party has to take these risks and allow contingencies for them in his budgets and plans.
Who takes which risks and to what extent is defined in the drafted contract conditions. Standard Contract Conditions for Particular Type of Works have been prepared by various professional organizations (like FIDIC) and large Organizations (like Worldbank) that assign the known usual risks between the parties based on criteria including: fairness, practical quantifiability, capacity to bear the risk and company contracting policy.
Generally higher the risk assigned to the contractor higher the bids one receives.
Then there arise issues regarding enforceability of the Contract Conditions. Local Laws and Legal Interpretations may not allow certain risks to be transferred on the contractor, or may require special tests to determine whether the actual risk was enforceably transferred. Any drafted contract risk transfers must meet these legal tests.
This program aims to develop understanding, competencies, and skills in the above areas.
This program will help the drafter make decisions about the risks to be transferred to the other party based on Capacity of Parties to Bear the Risk and Motivation of the Owner to pay more through the bidding process for more risks taken by the contractor
