WEBINAR: An insight into claims for disruption on construction projects

We have first-hand experience of how contractors’ can spend significantly more than planned on labour and equipment during the course of a construction project.

When we think about how competitive the pricing of tenders can be, especially in tougher market conditions, a contractors’ overspend on labour and equipment can extinguish a projects profit margin. Through our experience of assisting contractors in the Middle East region over recent years, contractors are looking towards disruption claims more frequently now as a means to recover these overspends.

Driver Trett are pleased to invite you to their free webinar on an insight into claims for disruption on construction projects in the Middle East, which will take place on Tuesday 24 November 2020 at 11AM UAE time.

DISCUSSION POINTS:

1. An increase into the preparation and submission of disruption claims in the region during the past 24 months.
2. The difference between delay and disruption claims – differentiating between the methods that are used to assess the heads of claim and also the costs claimed that are very different.
3. The limitations in respect to demonstrating loss of productivity, and evidencing this head of claim.
4. Identifying the cause and demonstrating the effect.
5. The various methods for evaluating loss of productivity, and
6. What a typical disruption claim should contain.
