Law and Legal Aspects of Project Management_2

IntroductionConstruction projects are often complicated and needs to be properly handled in order to ensurethat the contract is successful that helps the project as well. The project management is a processthrough which an activity is effectively organised, planned and controlled and executed toachieve the key objectives of the project (Kötz, 2017). There could be number of problems in theproject management and hence it is extremely important to manage them effectively to makesure the project is successfully completed. The present case of A Rive Venues is quite clear.There are no problems understanding that the organisation has suffered issues due to theorganisations it hired and they did not deliver. It is extremely important to note that in projectmanagement each and every organisations or entities have to perform in order to achieve theoverall objectives of the project and in this case companies hired by A-Rive Venues have notoperated well. The organisation A-Rive Venues have faced negligence in deliverance ofobjectives because the sub contractors like Construct it quick and “Brights” have not performedwell. In this scenario the legal aspects that A Rive could implement to safeguard them fromliability is discussed. Evaluate the common challenges faced by the Procurement and Supply chain managers and how to overcome themThe organisation A-Rive Venues were to focus on developing few temporary spaces for theOlympics and the organisation received Government contract to do so with revised contracts andnegotiated price but the organisation was not able to complete the project at the given timebecause the organisation faced several problems and one of the major being procurement andsupply chain problem. The managers of A-Rive Venues focused on getting its supply chain tooperate in the best possible manner to achieve the objectives but it failed because theorganisations with whom the organisation contracted failed to deliver the product on time. Thisis where the law and legal aspects come into the picture (Boyle, 2017). One of the majorsupplier and procurement problems that the organisation failed to pick up was the ability toensure that the suppliers were completely legally and financially qualified to deliver the product.It is extremely important to note that in project management supplier relationship is consideredextremely important but it is also important to have a professional relationship with them whichthe organisation in the present case completely failed to have which clearly affected the entire

project. From the case it could be said that there have been number of problems that theorganisation faced and did not make an attempt to change them even though there wassignificant possibility of facing disastrous results (Heldman, 2018). Having a good relationshipwith the supplies means the organisation will be able to stretch itself to take risks because it willhelp the organisation to make suitable decisions for the project and also support it effectively. Inthis case A-Rive did take effective risks but it was unfortunate that the organisations taking partin the project have not shown complete transparency while taking the project in the hands. Another major aspect which comes into the picture in this case is there was not proper projectrisk planning done by the organisation A-Rive because when one organisation was announcedbankrupt and was not in a position to continue the operations it took the organisation significantamount of time to manage another new supplier of services and in elevated prices which alsoadded to the problems in the project. It is important to consider the position of the organisation inthis scenario because it would largely help the organisation to ensure the company is able to getthe best possible team to work for them. Risk management is extremely important for everyorganisation and for project management it becomes a priority because it is the stakeholders’investment at stake (Turner, 2016). Strategy selection is another major problem that the supply chain managers of the organisationhas had to face because it clearly showed that the organisation A-Rive hasn’t experienced thisbig a tender and hence has lesser experience to manage projects like this. It is important to notethat the organisation would require taking more responsibilities which would help theorganisation to get the entire project done responsibly and successfully. The professionals of A-Rive have suffered to make effective decisions for the organisation which is because theorganisation has not been able to decide on their strategic system properly (Heagney, 2016). Thiswas a bigger contract and the organisation had to be extremely focused on making the rightdecisions which they did not do. It is extremely important for the organisation to make sure thatlegally the paperwork should have been done in the best possible manner which would havehelped the organisation to at least avert this kind of scenario. Another major problem that the supply chain managers of the organisation A-Rive have faced ismanaging the stakeholders. The end result for the organisation has not been good because thecompany has not been able to manage the project successfully which has led to minor injury to
