Synopsis
Contract managers, project managers and other professionals involved in construction projects must be able to work effectively together with their Employers, contractors and sub-contractors in order to accomplish key objectives of timely completion with no cost over-run.

Therefore a good understanding on how contracts are legally formed and how should the contract be administrated are essential for anyone who perform the role of contract administrator. A thorough understanding of the principles and the working mechanisms is crucial for one to be well equipped and be able to administer the contract confidently.
