Overview
Commercial contract management is the process of negotiating formal business agreements between 2 (private and/or public) companies. In commercial contract management, it is the duty of the contract manager to organise the entire process and ensure that all parties involved are aware of their deliverables, rights, and responsibilities.
Commercial contract management is becoming a globally recognised discipline within both the private and public sector. Many employers find the effective management of contracts critical for the success of their organisation and want to equip both individuals and teams with the knowledge and methods needed for successful contract management.
