Background
Contract management is a continuous procurement process that ensures suppliers adhere to their agreed contractual obligations along with negotiating any future changes that need to take place. Contract management is a major activity in most of the development projects of Nepal. In fact, almost about three fourth of the development budget is spent on procurement and this is even higher in case of construction projects. Hence, success of development activities largely rely on effective contract management to a large extent.
ADB’s Nepal Country Partnership Strategy has emphasized the need for improvement of portfolio performance of projects funded by it. There is an urgent need of developing capacity in key agencies and to meet an immediate requirement for better contract management in those agencies.
In this regard, the training program on contract management has been designed to impart contract management related knowledge and skills of the participants to improve portfolio performance.
