Contract Fundamentals & Legal Foundations
- What Makes a Contract Binding
Give your team a working knowledge of what constitutes a valid contract, including intent, acceptance, and consideration, plus the implications of verbal, written, and electronic agreements. - Core Legal Concepts in Procurement
Understand contract components like counteroffers, framework agreements, invitations to treat, and more. Learn how these show up in real-world scenarios, not just in textbooks. - Statutory Rights of the Buyer
Explore buyer protections under law, including payment terms, delivery, title of ownership, and warranty breaches. We cover what to do when key terms are missing or disputed.

- Navigating High-Impact Clauses
From exclusion clauses to silent renewals, learners will build fluency in spotting red flags and negotiating critical terms, including delivery schedules, Incoterms, penalties, and IP. - Ending Contracts the Right Way
Master practical exit routes, including mutual agreement, breach of contract, and performance failure. We'll show how to use remedial clauses and liquidated damages the right way without escalating friction. - Working With Legal Documents
Familiarise your team with binding legal documents, including NDAs and Letters of Intent, and learn how to align contractual language with organisational needs and stakeholder expectations.
