IPA Institute - Contracting in the Changing World of Projects July 24, 2012

Contracting in the Changing World of Projects is 2-day seminar during which knowledge on how contracting approaches and strategy are linked to business value will be shared. Contracting strategy is an important element of any project execution plan. Owners are tasked with selecting appropriate and effective contracting strategies for their capital projects. However, owner teams often lack data and a process to guide this selection. IPA’s contracting research over the past 20 years shows that the misalignment of contracting strategy with project specifics is often the root cause of project failure. In fact, problems with contracting strategies add 20 percent to cost and 18 percent to schedule relative to those projects that make more effective use of contract types. Contracting in the Changing World of Projects is officially registered with the Project Management Institute (PMI), allowing attendees to claim 16 Professional Development Units (PDUs) upon completion of the course.
