The FAC-1 Framework Alliance Contract - Typical Pitfalls and New Solutions

  Governance   New Practitioners  

An in-depth exploration of the new FAC-1 Framework Alliance Contract, highlighting new ways to create integrated frameworks whilst improving value and working effectively with the supply chain. Case studies from the UK Ministry of Justice, Surrey County Council and Futures Housing Group (the first adopters of the FAC-1 form) will help you learn why this new contract is becoming the contract of our time and was described by delegates in a previous PMI webinar as “state of the art”.

 

King’s College London Centre of Construction Law created the new FAC-1 standard form after 12 months of consultation with over 120 organizations in 14 countries, leading up to its publication in June 2016. The published form is already in use, has been presented at many international forums and is being translated for use into 5 other languages.

 

Case studies will show you how clients and teams can improve value under a framework or alliance, using connected projects to build on their experience and establish more integrated systems. FAC-1 makes this easier for all parties and creates a transnational basis for improved working practices.

 

FAC-1 is not a new building contract form, and instead is designed to connect any one or more existing building contract forms including:

• any national or international building and engineering contract forms including FIDIC
• any national or international consultant appointments.

 

Project Management topics covered:

• Procurement Strategy
• Contract Management
• Project Governance
• Collaborative Working & Effective Communication
