IACCM Releases Exclusive Interview with Erik Nordling: Why Contract Management Is Becoming a Top Management Focus?

LONDON, February 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

As businesses face a growing range of complex projects  and trading relationships, the importance of developing a more structured, reliable and internationally accepted approach to contracting and commercial process  is growing.

In the exclusive interview with International Association for Contract and Commercial Management (IACCM), Erik Nordling, Head of Contract Management at Ericsson, explains why contract and commercial management have risen to become a top management focus - and the steps being taken to ensure balanced benefit to both sides in any agreement.

'In the past, business complexity was all about operations and logistics; today, it is more about business models, demanding greater precision and more flexibility at the same time. That has placed a premium on good contract management capabilities.'

Erik will be presenting at The 9th IACCM EMEA Forum, 'Mastering Change - Complex Projects & the Role of Contracts' in London, April 24th- 26th. In this 5 minute interview, he also outlines his reasons for attending and why he believes every organization that aspires to high performance should be ready to discuss, learn, share and contribute to the development of contract management capabilities.

The IACCM EMEA Forum will offer in-depth insights to these challenges and a road-map for their resolution. Executives and senior practitioners are invited to come together and explore how simpler contracting can help them to master complex project delivery.
