About the Course
Contract Management is a complex process that often involves various claims that demand the attention of project leaders. Mishandling these claims can quickly escalate into disputes, making contract management exceptionally challenging. Consequently, the successful completion of contracts depends on implementing effective claims management strategies. Change orders and claims arising from alterations to the original scope of work are equally crucial for successful project completion, as they significantly impact project outcomes. Therefore, a thorough understanding of managing change orders and claims is vital to ensure the successful delivery of projects while mitigating potential risks such as time delays, budget overruns, and quality concerns.
