PM Debate: Contracts and Project Managers

 

Contracting is often considered a huge challenge for project managers. Some even consider it a waste of time. Developing a rich, detailed understanding of the contract's terms and conditions is vital to ensuring that the organization is protected. Asking the project manager to know all the details can be a bit of a stretch, or is it? This week we explore whether the project manager should be responsible for the contract or whether it is someone else's job. Listen to the debate and take part in the discussion.
