4.1.19 Management of contracts usually requires some flexibility on both sides and a willingness to adapt the terms of the contract to reflect a rapidly changing world. Problems are bound to arise that could not be foreseen when the contract was awarded. Often, this requires a structure in place for the management of both the GPE and the PPP provider to manage the relationship between both parties on an ongoing basis.
4.1.20 Contracts should be capable of change (to terms, requirements and perhaps scope) and the relationship should be strong and flexible enough to facilitate it. Good contract management is not reactive, but aims to proactively anticipate and respond to business needs of the future.
