Description
Managing Subcontracts is a course that provides essential learning for project personnel responsible for managing the subcontracting arrangements in engineering and construction EPC projects.
Subcontracting construction and related work is a universally recognised engineering construction practice. With construction often representing up to 40% or more of the head contract price, subcontractors' performance and their ultimate prices for doing the work significantly affects the head contract outturn results.
Therefore, striking a balance between obtaining the required work performance for an affordable price requires prudent subcontract management and building effective relationships between the contracting parties.
