A new third edition of Managing Reality by Bronwyn Mitchell and Barry Trebes is also now available. This set of five titles on using ECC has been fully updated for NEC4 and continues to offer practical tips and examples. Standard forms and checklists are included.

Lastly, a new NEC4 Roles and Responsibilities series was just launched to cover the various roles on NEC4 contracts and the specific requirements and challenges each presents:The Role of the Supervisor and The Role of the Project Manager, both by Mitchell and Trebes, are now available.
