By referring to past experiences on the causes and the suggested solutions, this research reckons that it can assist in avoiding or resolving similar situations at the onset of the dispute occurrence. Therefore, the objectives are: (a) to propose and develop a practical database system that can be employed by organizations to manage the past experiences, particularly for contractual issues, and (b) to validate and evaluate the database system from related organizations. Two actual projects were referred prior to finalizing the database system's structure.
