                                                         The increasing liberalisation of the transport market lays within the current economic
                                                         and international transport policy as well as juridical and institutional framework of the
Dottorato di Ricerca in Urban and Regional Development

                                                         different transport modes in Europe. Following the liberalisation of air transport and
                                                         freight, local public transport is now subjected to call for tenders to deliver their
                                                         services. Furthermore, since 2020, all the national high speed sections will be open
                                                         to concurrence, with exception for non-rentable sections. Eventually, in 2033 all the
                                                         current contracts will be ended.
                                                         The opening of the markets at worldwide level challenges the companies both when
                                                         preparing the tender and when managing the contract. The contract management is,
                                                         today, a specific skill more and more requested by the companies working on big
                                                         orders both at national and international level.
                                                         The growing use of Design-Build-Operate-Maintain (DBOM) models to carry out big
                                                         infrastructural projects in Europe and worldwide introduces new specificities and
                                                         contractual complexity for the involved actors.
                                                         The content of the course deals with the organization of a multinational Corporation
                                                         and its functions, such as Bid Manager, Procurement Manager, Engineering, Contract
                                                         Manager and his/her role in today organizations, bids organization, procurement plan,
                                                         onshore activities, contract structures, models and templates for engineering projects,
                                                         main contractual issues, basics of negotiation techniques, claim management and
                                                         arbitration.
                                                         A section of the course is devoted to increase the soft skills through a deep insight in
                                                         the negotiation techniques, including a practical part.
