The Most Highly Regarded Expert Witnesses 

What should you be doing to avoid delays and disputes in construction and infrastructure projects.

Staying Out of Trouble You know that the world of construction is notorious for delays, cost increase and disputes. The complexity of projects typically involves many parties, often with different agendas. You need to take steps at the outset to ensure that your risks are properly identified and that you have appropriate procedures in place to secure successful project delivery. This requires a proactive approach. Most dispute resolution procedures, however, tend to respond to a problem – by which time the problem is already likely to be impacting negatively on project delivery.

This is why we say to our clients, “… call us in as early as possible”. There are many possibilities early on in the project to reduce risk; however, frequently too little attention is given to plan ahead for how to both, avoid and resolve, the inevitable disagreements which will arise during the course of complex construction and infrastructure projects.

The highest areas of risk tend to occur when insufficient time is allocated to the initial design and procurement stages. While this gives an apparent advantage of an early start on site it leaves a disadvantage of a significant increase in the likelihood of an unresolved and uncoordinated design commencing on site, and changes being required during the course of construction. A project owner should always seek to avoid implementing changes after the design is ‘frozen’, if they are to avoid delays and/or cost increases an effective procedure within the contracts.

Discerning clients come to us for an early identification and resolution of disagreements before their escalation into formal disputes and for our extensive experience at assisting clients to navigate through these risks and implement appropriate procedures either at the outset, or during a complex construction projects.
