What’s it about?

This one-hour webinar provides a quick and easy walk you through programming obligations work under NEC3 ECS and provide an overview of the main provisions of under section 3 of the ECS Contract: producing a programme, updating the programme, programme acceptance and how float is incorporated into the programme.

Attendees of this webinar will have a much clearer understanding of the intent of the specific contractual clauses and in practical terms begin to see how they should administer them for the benefit of all parties on a particular project.

After attending this webinar, you should be able to:

  • Understand the subtle yet definitive difference between planned Completion and Completion Date.
  • Explain the reasons under the contract for which a programme could be not accepted,
  • Outline the fundamental importance to both Parties of the regular acceptance of the programme,
  • Explain the different types of float that will be created within the programme
