Types of Contracts

Fixed-price. A type of contract that generally provides for
a firm price (lump sum). It obliges the supplier to deliver a
defined product and/or service to the customer at a
predetermined price.
Risk, especially the risk of rising input (labour and/or
material) costs, is shifted from the buyer to the supplier.
Can be written to allow for adjustable pricing under
changing circumstances, e.g., with incentive, escalation
or or redetermination clauses.
Fixed-price

7
Commencing on January 1, 2014 and on
every anniversary thereafter, the value of
the payment amounts shall be adjusted
upward by an annual rate of 2.50%.
Escalation

8
If any Unplanned Maintenance has a material effect on
the Work to be performed in connection with Planned
Maintenance Workscope, the Parties shall enter into good
faith negotiations in order to negotiate a pricing
adjustment to reflect the change in Planned Maintenance
Workscope.
If the Parties are unable to agree upon the adjustment,
then the dispute will be determined by arbitration in
accordance with Section XX Arbitration.
Price Adjustment

9
Fixed-price incentive. A fixed-price type of contract with
provision for adjustment of price based on supplier
performance, e.g., on-time or early delivery or superior
product or service quality.
Fixed-price with redetermination. A contract with an initial
negotiated fixed price and an agreement to adjust the price
under certain circumstances, e.g., a rise in input costs

10
Cost-plus. A contract in which payment to the supplier
covers total cost of completing the job (labour, material,
overhead) plus a negotiated percentage profit margin.
The risk shifts from supplier to buyer. In fact, technically,
the higher the total cost incurred, the greater the profit.
Cost-plus fixed-fee. A cost-type contract wherein the
supplier receives reimbursement for all relevant incurred
costs, plus a fixed fee for services rendered.
While the fixed fee does not vary with actual costs, it
may be adjusted due to subsequent changes in the
scope of work or services performed under the contract.

11
Shared-savings. A type of contract under which a
supplier installs an item (equipment, machine, or
system) at a customer’s premises free of charge,
but shares the subsequent savings realized as
compared with the period before the item was
installed. Title to the item is usually kept by the
supplier until its price is fully recovered from the

contract?

From the assigned reading Patel (2006), effective
contract management can:
Support assessment and mitigation of various risks,
such as price fluctuations and supply disruptions.
Facilitate validation of cost savings
Track compliance with regulatory requirements.

From the assigned reading Saxena (2005), contract
management should consider three domains of compliance:
Regulatory
governmental and legal
Procedural/Operational
within the functions of an organization
Contractual
between organizationsSaxena, Anuj (2005), Enterprise Contract Management:

Defines ECM as:
“enterprise-wide software plus professional services that
together give an organization the best practices and
technology to effectively and efficiently manage its
worldwide contractual agreements, thereby ensuring and
enforcing procedural, contractual and regulatory compliance
through all stages of the contract lifecycle.”

incumbent, in light of changing conditions.
3. Estimate potential cost savings (and service
improvements) achievable in the new contract.
4. If you go out for bid, do it right

Prior Assignment Comments
Report was to include ORIGINAL work, not cut paste from
other policies. Actual RFP language or policy is OK to
reference but, if included in report, needs to be identified as
such and should be included in an appendix so as to not eat
into the word count.
More credit was given for an unpolished original assessment
of current policy than for “textbook” explanations or
regurgitation of existing mature RFP policy.
Run your spell check, no excuses for spelling errors.
Acronyms, make sure to define them at their 1st appearance
in your paper, the reader may not necessarily know what a
BATNA is.

Prior Assignment Comments
Do not ignore the required elements of the assignment.
Some people gave very robust descriptions of the current
policy (worth 15 marks) but then were too brief in their
Analysis and Plan of Action, collectively worth 60% and
where the majority of reports words should be spent.
Like any change implemented, at any level (warehouse,
retail store, corporate office, power plant etc...) there needs
to be some thought given to specific steps required, who will
be responsible for these steps and rough timing as to when
these steps will take place. As this was worth 30% of the
assignment grade, you needed to supply some evidence of
consideration of this plan, although not anything as detailed
as a formal project execution plan.

Make sure all required elements are in your report and the
word count allocated accordingly. I don’t try and “outguess” the
