Project and Contract Management – Programme Overview

In developing countries, a large number of projects are being implemented not only to increase the existing capacities but also to create additional infrastructure and improve the technological capabilities of organisations in all sectors of the economy. The projects once initiated need to be completed on time, within the budgeted cost, and to a desired level of quality. To achieve this, conscious and deliberate decisions have to be taken to plan, monitor and control the elements of time, cost and quality, through an effective blend of organisational, commercial and systems-oriented methods.

The Administrative Staff College of India (ASCI) is conducting a comprehensive training programme to help practicing executives adapt the modern approach to project and contract management. The programme is structured to expose project executives to the concepts, tools, and techniques of project and contract management with a view to broaden their outlook on projects and thereby sharpen their skills to address the critical parameters of a project.

The programme focuses attention on sharing of experiences and ideas relating to projects among the participants, with an aim to give them a broader perspective on project situations in developing countries like India, and to develop the tact and discipline required in systematically planning and managing projects and contracts.
