Nivel 2 NEC4 Preparación de un ECC

Having a clear and well-structured brief has long been recognised to be fundamental to the success of any project. For NEC this means a clear and unambiguous Contract Data and Scope in conjunction with the correct use of additional conditions of contract (Z Clauses). Echoing good practice in each of these aspects will ensure that your NEC contract delivers the balance of flexibility and clarity which leads to successful outcomes. 

This workshop covers the practicalities of preparing the various documents that form the ECC4 including Contract Data, Scope, Site Information and the pricing document to clearly define the obligations and risk allocation as well as how to correctly identify if your requirement is better served through an additional condition of contract and, if so, how to prepare it. 

The workshop is suited for ECC contracts with the variations in requirements between main Options being detailed in the supporting materials. As a way of supporting NEC’s collaborative approach, it is aimed at Clients, Contractors and Project Managers.
