With increasing financial pressures and new regulations, effective contract management has never been more important for local authorities.

In response, APSE offers our course in Principles of Contract Management. Our trainer will take you through the full contract management cycle – from tendering and awarding the initial contract, through creating the contract itself, through ongoing reviews and monitoring, to assessing and learning from the results.

The course balances expert input on legal requirements (including up to date procurement compliance) with practical techniques for key skills such as negotiation, risk assessment, and managing change.

 

Learning Outcomes

By the end of this training you will:

  • Understand the key principles, aspects and purpose of contract management
  • Acknowledge your responsibilities to provide effective value-for-money services in a contract
  • Appreciate the need to manage the performance, administration and delivery within the contract
  • Identify and manage the risks in contract management  
  • Sustain the mutually beneficial relationship with suppliers

This event will also include case study examples of local authority contracts.

 

Who Will Benefit?

Operational managers, service managers, health and safety advisors, finance officers, trade union officials, elected members or anyone seeking to improve their knowledge and understanding of contract management.

Continuous Professional Development (CPD) 

This course has been independently certified as conforming to accepted CPD guidelines. Delegates will earn 5 CPD points from attending the full course and will be issued with a CPD certificate for their personal records.
