Construction Contracts: Best Practice in Uncertain Times

Join Harrison Humphries and Sarah-Jane Hunt to discover the best strategies for managing a project from start to finish.

In this session, Harrison Humphries and Sarah-Jane Hunt will offer practical advice on establishing a solid foundation for success, covering issues ranging from contract preparation, negotiation and administration to dealing with disputes concerning non-payment, defective or incomplete works, or early termination of the contract.

Their guidance will equip you with essential best practices to ensure a well-managed project, helping you maintain clarity and control throughout its lifecycle. You will learn how to address potential challenges, minimise risks, and avoid common pitfalls that can impact project outcomes.

By adopting these practices, you should reduce the likelihood of disputes, position yourself better if another party to the contract becomes insolvent and promote smoother collaboration among all stakeholders, including owners, head contractors, sub-contractors, and investors. Don’t miss this opportunity to enhance your understanding and improve your contract management in these uncertain times.
