DAR AL RIYADH INSIGHT #64
Insight #64 What Are the Sources of Construction Claims?
Dar Al Riyadh Insights reflect the knowledge and experience of our Board, executives and staff in leading and providing PMC, design and construction management services. Dar Al Riyadh believes in the importance of broadly sharing knowledge with our clients and staff to improve project outcomes for the benefit of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
What Are the Sources of Construction Claims?
No listing of potential sources of construction claims will ever be complete, but some recurring reasons include:
- Incomplete or inadequate bid information
- Incomplete or poor quality drawings and/or specifications
- incomplete basis of design (BOD)
- conflicting requirements
- high level of Requests for Information (RFIs)
- work different then called for in drawings and specifications
- Changes to scope, including increases, decreases, and modifications
- Changes in means and methods of construction
- Intermittent operations required because of inadequate owner drawings or specifications; owner directed changes; limitations imposed by regulators; unforeseen or undisclosed circumstances; lack of coordination with other contractors or owners operations; lack of design information that is timely and complete; or supply chain performance
- Work in congested areas
- Defective or late owner-furnished equipment and materials
- Project acceleration to regain schedule
The balance of this series of Insights will look at each phase of the project more closely.
