Drafting Contracts for Procurement Professionals

Drafting Contracts for Procurement Professionals


OVERVIEW

This webinar is geared toward informing participants about important terms and conditions to know when drafting a contract for your organization. This is presented from a pier perspective based on years of experience drafting contracts and not a legal review presentation by an Attorney. 

Understanding the terms of a contract is especially important when problems arise with a contractor or with organizational priorities. The object of the webinar is to make you a better advocate for your organization when contracting with a vendor. Sample language will be reviewed that may assist you in strengthening the next contract you are required to draft.

Attend this webinar to gain an understanding of the documents and section types necessary to draft a procurement contract. Use clauses to prevent getting locked into a bad contract. Learn about tools to control cost escalations.
