Course Content
Our NEC3 Collaborative Project Management under the ECCcourse is designed to help project teams deliver contracts that achieve — and better — their time, cost, and quality objectives. The NEC3 family of contracts was created to encourage collaboration and stimulate good project management practices. This course explains what you actually need to do in practice to meet these objectives and, crucially, how to exceed them through effective use of the NEC3 Engineering and Construction Contract (ECC). It is ideally delivered at the start-up phase of a contract to ensure all parties gain a shared understanding and commitment to successful collaboration.
