Purchasing Contracts

Our talented legal trainer, Graham Fuller published a second edition of his authoritative book Purchasing Contracts: a practical guide. This book will be particularly appreciated by those working with contracts for the procurement of goods and services and is not just another contract law textbook. It is published by Spiramus Ltd and is available both in hardback and softback at £49.95 and £24.95 respectively.

"Graham Fuller’s book would be a useful addition to any purchaser’s library. It deals in a logical manner with all of the law a buyer is likely to encounter." Supply Management.

The value of the book goes beyond buyers and lawyers. "The topics covered are obviously of direct interest to those involved in the purchasing process but are also of huge importance to Project Controllers, who must at all times be aware of and respond to many aspects of purchasing cycles, in terms of equipment, materials and services .... This book is to be recommended as key reading matter and library reference for all those interested and involved in Project Controls." Tony Reid, IET. To see the full review click here.

This second edition contains additional chapters including one on the special rules governing purchasing by public bodies and utilities. The subjects of misrepresentation, exemption clauses and electronic contracting are amongst those that have been updated and covered in more detail. The bill currently going through Parliament on bribery is also tackled.

Delegates will receive a complementary paperback copy of the book. To register interest please contact enquiries@powerseminars.co.uk.
