Claim and Change Request Management
Understand contracts, manage deviations and changes
It is essential for project managers and project team members to know the basic terms of contract, claim and change request management.
If changes in the project are not clarified before they are implemented, consequences have to be negotiated and allocated afterwards. In the case of deviations, this is referred to as claims. In the project business, claims management is part of the toolkit of both the client and the contractor. The aim is to clarify by mutual agreement the commercial consequences of events in the course of the project that could not be foreseen when the contract was signed. If a deviation or change causes additional costs, the project result is altered or the final deadline is postponed, the disadvantaged project partners will usually make subsequent demands (claims) to the parties responsible. In this training, you will learn to enter into a claim negotiation in a structured manner and to conclude it with a good negotiation result.
