Training Construction Contract Management 

Empower Your Teams: Kiltoom Advisory's Construction Contract Management Training (Ireland & UK)

Successful delivery of construction and infrastructure projects in the dynamic Ireland and UK markets hinges on effective contract management. Misunderstanding contractual obligations, failing to adhere to procedures, or poor administration frequently lead to costly disputes, project delays, and eroded profitability. Investing in your team's contractual and commercial awareness is therefore not just beneficial – it's essential for mitigating risk and achieving project success.

Kiltoom Advisory offers specialised Construction Contract Management Training & Workshops, designed to equip project teams – including Project Managers, Quantity Surveyors, Engineers, Commercial Managers, Employers, and Contractors – with the practical skills and knowledge needed to navigate complex contracts confidently across both Ireland and the UK.

Why Invest in Contract Management Training?

Empowering your team with expert contract knowledge delivers tangible benefits:

• Reduced Dispute Risk: Enhanced understanding of contract terms, procedures (like notices and change control), and risk allocation minimizes misunderstandings and procedural errors that often trigger disputes.

• Improved Commercial Outcomes: Better identification and management of variations, claims (EOT, cost), and payment processes lead to improved cost control and recovery of entitlements.

• Enhanced Compliance: Clear understanding of relevant payment legislation (CCA 2013 in Ireland, HGCRA payment rules in the UK) and adjudication processes ensures compliance and protects against statutory pitfalls.

• Increased Efficiency & Confidence: Teams equipped with the right knowledge administer contracts more efficiently and make decisions with greater confidence.

• Stronger Collaboration: A shared understanding of contractual roles, responsibilities, and processes (especially under collaborative forms like NEC) fosters better communication and teamwork.

Kiltoom Advisory's Training Expertise

Our training is built upon deep, practical expertise gained from years of hands-on advisory and leadership experience in the Irish and UK construction sectors. Led by Principal Traoloch Collins (LLB), our workshops offer:

• Real-World Application: We focus on practical application, using real-world scenarios and case studies relevant to the Irish and UK environments, rather than purely theoretical lectures.

• Interactive Learning: Our workshops encourage participation and discussion, allowing attendees to address their specific challenges and questions.

• Tailored Content: We customise workshops to meet your organisation's specific needs, focusing on the contracts you use and the challenges your teams face.
