Without a proper Contract Planning process, there is a strong risk that the Contract will not meet the organisation's needs or adequately protect them from risk.

This Checklist sets out - step-by-step - the information that an Instructing Officer will need to either draft the Contract themselves based on a precedent or template, or to work with their Lawyer to draft the Contract.

Why do I need a Contract Planning Checklist?

Contract Planning is a crucial step that takes place at the beginning of any project, and it is an essential process that every Contracts Professional and organisation should embrace.

This process helps to ensure that each Contract, when drafted, will be fit for purpose and will protect your organisation from risk.

Without a proper Contract Planning process, there is a strong risk that the Contract will not meet the organisation's needs and will leave it open to problems in the future.

But as a Contracts Professional, it can be challenging to know where to start with the Contract Planning process. That's where the Contract Planning Checklist comes in.


The Contract Planning Checklist:

  • will help you save time and money over the Contract Planning and Drafting process
