Course Description:

'' Success in delivery of a project or as some term them deliverable(s) depends on your position in the contracting relationship. Whether you are the owner (employer), contractor or consultant you each look on profit as a successful outcome. Each party is willing to accept some risk but the type of contracting relationship you select and the contract you sign will determine if you will be asked/able to accept/transfer risk.
