Construction contract training covering contractual entitlements, variations, extensions of time, notices, payment claims, dispute resolution and commercial risk management.
Construction projects regularly involve changes, delays, variations, disruptions and commercial pressures that can significantly affect time, cost and risk allocation across the project. Understanding what a party is contractually entitled to — and how those entitlements arise, are evidenced and are enforced — is essential for protecting commercial outcomes and reducing dispute risk.
In practice, however, many project teams struggle not because the contract mechanisms are unclear, but because contractual entitlements are poorly understood, poorly documented or not managed operationally as issues emerge during project delivery. Missed notices, inadequate records and reactive contract administration can quickly undermine otherwise valid contractual positions.
Understanding Contractual Entitlements is a practical, implementation-focused training course designed to provide construction professionals with a clear understanding of how contractual entitlements operate in live project environments. The course examines the practical relationship between notices, records, programme impacts, variations, payment mechanisms and dispute resolution processes across construction projects.
Delivered by Steven Evans, the course draws upon extensive experience advising contractors, subcontractors and project teams across complex construction and infrastructure projects.
Topics include:
