Battle of the forms concept in contracts management is noted to “occur when organisations and a supplier having their unique terms and conditions which are different in various clauses” (Lexis, 2024). A case study organisation is provided in the CIPS Module notes of a negotiation and procurement relationship involving Butler Machine and Ex-Cell 0 which happened in 1979. A common agreement was made for supply of machines using the supplier standard teams. The area of misunderstanding in the contract was in regard to honouring the costs where the conflict headed upto court of law successfully. In managing the battle of the forms, the contract terms and conditions note that;
The terms and conditions highlight that being the buyer, ROSHN is at all times ready in managing any instance where the suppliers fails in embracing the contract terms and conditions. This is by understanding the role of the terms and conditions and align their PS&M in line with these terms and conditions.
Further, for ROSHN terms and conditions which are in place and actively being used, their management is best achieved by aligning this with KSA laws and all stakeholde3rs relations. The rationale of this us to make sure any conflict which emerge are through coordination successfully managed. At the stage of implementing the contract successfully, terms and conditions are prioritised with purchase order which highlight the entire requir3ements to be put into account. At the implementation of the contract stage, all the terms and conditions are in mutual agreement and understanding for all stakeholders positive relations. Hence, the contracts are successfully harmonised with any misunderstanding successfully managed to the benefit of the buyer and all the other stakeholders with success.
