<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Learn from this practical guide full of tools for managing contracts, specifically client-supplier relationships and big procurement contracts.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Contract management is a key management skill, yet it is underplayed in most organizations, which usually default to <i>project management</i> skills as a proxy for contract management skills. Whilst project management skills are equally essential, they are not the same thing. <b><i>Contract Management</i></b> looks at the wider contract management picture from an industrial-commercial perspective, and helps set-out typical structures and processes that assist the contract management task. The author uses diagramatic representations to depict complex ideas. <p/><i><b>Contract Management</b> </i>includes learning points in each chapter, looking at handling problems, procedural changes and enhancing commercial performance.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>'Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.' This quote of Confucius is of particular relevance in the world of corporate contracting - where surprisingly few businesses have enough visibility of such a critical component of their commercial engagements. It is the lack of active contract management, and how to fix it, that is brilliantly addressed in this book. The invaluable knowledge shared by Peter Sammons will arm any manager with the knowledge to reduce risk for their organisation.-- "Philip Allouche, CEO, Simfoni Analytics"<br><br>Good selling and good procurement requires the continued application of process discipline - not only before but also after the contract is signed. This book provides structured, straight-forward guidance about how to get those deals you have signed delivered and completed in line with expectations.-- "Alan Gotto, Managing Director, Constellia"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Peter Sammons</b> is a commercial/procurement specialist with 35 years in field. He is now a consultant who provides commercial support and develops/delivers training seminars
