Details

Written by experienced and innovative projects lawyer, Arent van Wassenaer, this book explains what the critical success factors are for construction projects to be completed within time, within everyone’s budget, with the right quality, with all stakeholders satisfied and without disputes. In doing this, van Wassenaer discusses how such projects could be structured, tendered for, executed and completed, and what legal and non-legal mechanisms are available to achieve success in construction projects.

Using examples of real projects, A Practical Guide to Successful Construction Projects provides tools for those in leading and managerial positions within the construction industry to change - where necessary - their usual operational methods into methods which are aimed at achieving project success.
