Contracts need to be controlled very tightly to MAXIMISE the benefits and MINIMISE the risks so that your company reaps the benefits of the contracting process.
This occurs because administration personnel do not have sufficient knowledge or the necessary skills to recognise the risks and opportunities, and to properly manage the contracts.
- Lack of Attention to Detail During Tendering Process
- Poor Evaluation Techniques
- Poorly Administered Contracts
Arbitration is costly. Do you know how to resolve disputes in a less costly manner, and how to PREVENT them in the first place?
