Our EPC Project Management Training Programs
EPC Contract Management Training
Every large infrastructure project runs on an EPC contract. Managing it poorly leads to disputes, delay claims, cost overruns, and arbitration. This program gives professionals the skills to manage EPC contracts confidently from pre-award through closeout.
Training covers pre-bid risk assessment, conditions of contract under FIDIC and Indian formats, tendering and bid evaluation, post-award administration, variation and change order management, extension of time claims, subcontract administration, dispute prevention, and contract closeout.
Who attends: Contract Engineers, Project Managers, Commercial Managers, Package Managers.
Key topics: FIDIC and Indian contract formats, pre-bid risk, variation management, EOT claims, subcontract administration, dispute prevention, and contract closeout.
Mode: Onsite, Online, VILT | Duration: 2 to 3 days
Project Risk Management Training
Unmanaged risk in EPC and construction projects turns into a claim, a delay, or a cost overrun. This program teaches professionals to identify, assess, and respond to risks across the full project lifecycle.
Content draws on real EPC risk scenarios from infrastructure, power, and energy projects. It is aligned with PMI PMBOK risk processes and ISO 31000, taught through the lens of what happens on an actual project site and risk register.

This program delivers complete project management training for engineers using infrastructure and industrial construction case studies. It covers the full PM lifecycle aligned with PMI PMBOK and is positioned as a practical PMP alternative training for EPC and construction engineers in India.

Prof. Rajeev Sharma imparted unique perspective and knowledge on a course for us named “Effective Supply Chain Management and Strategic Sourcing”. While this information existed in the common pool of knowledge at our department of Strategic SCM, Prof. Rajeev Sharma brought it to life through many interactive examples from his own diversified and unique experience in the EPC and SCM field. At least five individuals from my department joined the course, and speaking on their behalf, we benefited immensely by the simplistic approach Prof. Rajeev Sharma took to explain the most complex concepts in SCM.

All the best Rajeev ji. Your training on Contract management for EPC Projects was “the best” and most engaging program I have ever attended on the subject. There was something for everyone.

The online SCDM Program organized on the topic of Contracts and Claims Management was highly enlightening. The program gave special emphasis on the core contents of the Contracts discipline which was supported by well formulated case studies. The group activity conducted on the case study gave good insight of the topic being discussed during the session. As the session was interactive, we never really felt distracted, and our queries were cleared there and then instead of waiting for question-and-answer round at the end. Would like to attend more such session on live topics.

Connects the knowledge we are learning to the real-life examples and cases. The exercises, case studies, and interactive activities were excellent. The workshops took on the actual feeling that I was selling/buying. Great course, excellent trainer Mr. Rajeev. I strongly believe that my team gained vast knowledge on the subject. Highly recommended
