When delay claims reach court, one question dominates: what truly caused the delay, and can it be proved? In V601 Developments v Probuild, Justice Digby set the benchmark.

The dynamic critical path method makes demonstrating delay after the fact much easier. It negates the need to reconstruct the as-built programme so that a clear critical path can be demonstrated to prove Extension of Time entitlement.

Disruption is an interference that disturbs or slows down a Contractor's usual working methods, leading to reduced efficiency. Disruption is not the same as delay, however a disruption can be the cause of a delay.

Two Australian cases have reshaped how tribunals view expert evidence in delay and quantum disputes. They set a clear benchmark for how quantum experts (quantity surveyors) must present evidence today.

Recent Australian mega-projects have experienced significant cost overruns due to unsuitable procurement methods, particularly fixed-price lump sum contracts that fail to accommodate project complexities and risks.

There’s been a quiet shift in how some delay practitioners interpret “cause and effect” analysis, and not always for the better.

Choosing the right methodology for forensic delay analysis is critical to accurately evaluating project delays and resolving disputes.

Claims advisory represents an opportunity to turn potential problems into opportunities for resolution, keeping construction projects on schedule and within budget.

Recent Australian mega-projects have experienced significant cost overruns due to unsuitable procurement methods, particularly fixed-price lump sum contracts that fail to accommodate project complexities and risks.

Dispute resolution is the process of resolving conflicts efficiently and effectively, ensuring your project stays on track and forensic quantity surveyors and delay experts play an important role.

Expertise is the cornerstone of effective project advisory services. Quantum Experts and Delay Experts are at the forefront, bringing unmatched precision and insight to every stage of a project. 

The cost and scale of construction projects today is seemingly ever-increasing as governments and companies respond to the needs of society. With more projects at greater scale comes the more critical need for highly skilled resources.

The construction industries in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Saudi Arabia, and Australia encounter distinct challenges in dispute resolution.

Delay expert, Andrew McKenna explores why records are crucial and what types of evidence are most effective to support delay analysis. 

Delay expert, Andrew McKenna highlights the key hurdles faced by delay experts and planning experts in analysing construction delays, alongside practical lessons to overcome these issues.

For Forensic Quantity Surveyors acting as Quantum Experts, understanding the difference between cost incurred and accrued cost is paramount.

Delay expert, Andrew McKenna discusses the importance of baseline programme integrity, common challenges, and strategies for maintaining robust baseline programmes in Australian construction projects. 

Claims advisory services can help you save money and foster trust among stakeholders by handling disagreements professionally. 

Understanding how to calculate the cycle time of an excavator in a simple and clear way helps us figure out how efficiently an excavator works and how much it costs to move material.

Pacing in the context of construction delays refers to a strategic decision by a contractor to slow down the project progress.
