This Good Practice Guide arms the architect and contract
administrator with everything they need to know to make fair
determinations of loss and expense. It explains the principles of
evaluation so that claims can be assessed quickly and safely, in
many cases without costly third party involvement. In clear,
accessible language, it examines why claims commonly arise (both
under the contract and for breach of the contract), explains the
certifier's obligations, and shows the contract administrator how
to establish liability so they can determine the true value of loss
and expense themselves. If, despite following the author's
practical and pragmatic approach to resolving claims fairly, there
still remain any issues to be resolved, there is also helpful
guidance on how to choose the right dispute resolution method.
Concise, readable, and full of practical tips such as when to seek
expert advice and how best to negotiate your position, this is the
ideal companion for the busy practitioner facing a claim for loss
and expense.

the practice of public management and to our understanding of the
politics and organization of public institutions. As a study of the
practice of public management, the literature of public financial
management closely scrutinizes developing trends and standards in

examines the salience of financial resources and their management
in the allocation and use of political authority. This four-volume
set aims to address the sophistication and breadth of issues in
this fast-developing area of study, bringing together seminal works
on both practice-centric research and research that speaks to
broader public management concerns. Above all this major work
represents an invaluable resource which can be used to educate
readers toward the practice and institutional affects of public
financial management.

It is critical to improve the asset management system
implementation as well as economics and industrial decision making
to ensure that a business may move smoothly internally. Maintenance
management should be aligned to the activities of maintenance in
accordance with key business strategies, which must be designed
under the comprehensive approach of an asset management process.
After transforming the priorities of the business into priorities
of maintenance, maintenance managers will use their medium-team
strategies to tackle potential weaknesses in the maintenance of the
equipment in accordance with these objectives. Cases on Optimizing
the Asset Management Process explains and summarizes the processes
and the reference frame necessary for the implementation of the
Maintenance Management Model (MMM). This book acts as an overview
of the current state of the art in asset management, providing
innovative tools and practices from the fourth industrial
revolution. Presenting topics like criticality analysis, physical
asset maintenance, and unified modelling language, this text is
essential for industrial and manufacturing engineers, plant
supervisors, academicians, researchers, advanced-level students,
technology developers, and managers who make decisions in this
field.
