Partnering

Partnering fosters the kind of relationship that permits all parties to achieve their objectives. It creates a true team that comprises all the organisations and individuals involved in a particular project.

It evokes a powerful combination of an attitudinal change and a rigorous process to promote business relationships.

Importantly, partnering is not about entering legal relationships, it is a commitment by all the participants to treat each other with respect, trust and as a valued team member working together to achieve common objectives. It requires parties to recognise and accept responsibility for their contribution to achieving successful outcomes.

Partnering ensures that:

• A strong team commitment is created;
• Common goals and individual objectives are articulated and supported by all;
• Effective service delivery is achieved through teamwork, harmony and cooperation;
• Common objectives are pursued to the benefit of all concerned;
• Problems are resolved early and at the lowest management level;
• Time and cost goals are achieved

Partnering is of obvious value to consortia responsible for delivering major projects, teams embarking on design or construction projects or parties entering complex relationships.
