Course overview
NEC4 PSC – Beyond the Clauses is for teams delivering and managing services under the NEC4 Professional Service Contract. It focuses on successful service delivery and what your team has to do, rather than working through the clauses one by one.
NEC4 can be misunderstood and has a reputation for being complex and creating too much administration. This course will dispel those myths and look at what the contract actually requires and where unnecessary administration can be avoided.
The course uses realistic project scenarios and operational examples. Participants discuss the decisions they would need to make and the information needed to make them.
