Quantifying and ManagingDisruption ClaimsHamish Lal, Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer,Construction and Engineering Group

Claims involving disruption are commonly accepted tobe the most difficult to quantify. Disruptions that occurduring a working day can lead to productivity loss,which in turn, can lead to time and cost overruns. If thedisruption consumes the entire float in an activity,then disruption can cause a delay to project completionand lead to claims for extensions of time. Contractorsof all tiers, concerned that they have lost money,troubled by the threat of liquidated damages or simplybecause the conditions of contract allow, submitclaims for loss/expense and (in the worst-casescenarios) extensions of time. The accuratequantification of the time and cost effects of suchdisruption is typically prevented because the role oflabour/resource productivity is not fully recognised,site labour productivity is not correctly measured (if atall) and, finally, because the relationship between thebill of quantities items (cost) and programme activities(time) is not direct or transparent.

The solution proposed in this book is to integratecost and time to develop a site labour productivitymeasurement system whereby claims involvingdisruption can be objectively and automaticallyquantified. It is a practical text that challenges thecurrent construction industry cost and timeestimating methods, demystifies the measurementof site labour/resource productivity and – in linewith the Society of Construction Law Delay and

Disruption Protocol launched in October 2002 –puts forward a rational and sufficiently accuratemethod of quantifying the effects of disruption interms of both cost and time. Through the use of thesolution on four very different demonstrationconstruction projects, this book provides workedexamples and tangible evidence of how the solutionis designed to operate in practice.

Disruption claims often impact on the whole of theconstruction industry and so this book has beenspecifically written for anyone who is involved insubmitting, evaluating, awarding, managing andresolving disruption claims.

Scottish EngineeringContractsGareth Parry and Scott Johnston,McGrigor Donald

This book provides – in one concise, practicalvolume – a basic guide to the principles of Scotslaw as they relate to engineering contracts andfocuses on those clauses most frequentlyencountered in everyday industry life. Avoidinglegalese and jargon, the book also reviews keyfeatures of commonly used standard forms ofengineering contracts, such as the ICE Conditionsof Contract 7th Edition and the CECA Form of Sub-Contract.

An important feature of this book is its detailedchapter on environmental law, one of the fastestgrowing and increasingly legislated areas of law inthe United Kingdom. A rudimentary knowledge ofenvironmental law is particularly important in theengineering sector where the interface between theenvironment and engineering works is often acute.

Scottish Engineering Contracts will provide professionalengineers, surveyors and commercial managementstaff in construction and engineering companies orclient organisations with a readable, accurate andpractical guide to the law. It will also prove to be aninvaluable aid for anyone who is involved in thepreparation of, or has to provide comment or guidanceon, engineering contract documentation.

A Users’ Guide to AdjudicationUnder the Scheme forConstruction Contracts(including paymentprovisions) 2nd Edition

Guy Cottam, Consulting Engineer and past Chairmanof the Arbitration Advisory Panel and the Conciliationand Adjudication Advisory Panel at the ICE

This book is a simple, practical guide to the effectsof the Housing Grants, Construction andRegeneration Act 1996, and the Scheme forConstruction Contracts, a regulation producedunder the Act. It does not go through the Schemeclause by clause, but clearly and concisely explainsthe actions required by the Scheme stage by stage.It is not a legal treatise, instead it is a simple,straightforward guide specifically written to helpthose people who have a dispute that is referred toadjudication, or who have difficultiesunderstanding the payment terms.

In one, handy, concise volume, this book deliverspractical advice and guidance on how to presentyour information to the adjudicator, what to expectfrom the other parties involved and how to enforcea decision if the other party does not implement it.

Since the first edition of this popular book waslaunched in 1998, adjudication has become anoutstanding success and there have been over 200court judgements, mostly on enforcementproceedings and four decisions of the Court ofAppeal. The effects of these judgements have beenreflected in this new edition. Experience has alsoshown that probably the most important feature ofthe Housing Grants, Construction and RegenerationAct 1996 has been the payment provisions. Thesection on the payment provisions has thereforebeen expanded to take account of betterunderstanding of their effects.

The New Engineering ContractA legal commentary

Dr Arthur McInnis, Solicitor, Hong Kong; Barristerand Solicitor, British Columbia; Consultant, CliffordChance

“In his thorough and perceptiveresearch, culminating in thisbook, Arthur McInnis has provideda much needed tool...The bookspeaks clearly to lawyers andmanagers in terms which both willreadily absorb. I foresee that itwill rapidly become the standardlegal work on the NEC. McInnis onthe NEC will be used by managersas well as by lawyers, and it willbe used in the avoidance ofdisputes much more than in theconduct of them.”Dr Martin Barnes, Member of the NEC Panel

This book examines the background to the NEC, itsdesign objectives, structure, procedures and likelyjudicial interpretation to determine whether itimproves upon the traditional standard forms ofcontract.

Special attention is given in the commentary to thedevelopment and the significance of the principlesunderlying preparation of the NEC as well as thearguments in favour and against them. Throughoutthe detailed commentary on the NEC clauses,comparisons to the traditional forms are also madeto highlight unique features and principles ofgeneral application.

NEC ContractThe philosophy and objectiveof the NEC is to create an open,cooperative, no blame, non-adversarial, team approach to

managingcontracts.

Launched just over adecade ago and

recognised by SirMichael Latham as the

style of contract thatmost closely matched his

vision for futureconstruction, the NEC was

clearly ahead of its time – itis now a contract of its time, the innovative wayforward for 21st century construction.

Users’ experience of the NEC – on thousands ofcontracts, large or small – has identified thefollowing key strategic reasons for its use:

■ NEC provides a single modern commercialplatform for the whole engineering andconstruction industry.

■ Working as a team – with the architect,quantity surveyor, and civil, structural,mechanical and electrical engineers – allusing the same form of contract makes anincredible difference to the process ofmanaging a project .

■ NEC is built around good contractmanagement practice.

■ Correct application of the NEC will ensure thatclients’ affairs are managed proactively.

Among the many notable users are the HighwaysAgency, the Environment Agency, CTRL, BAA,Sainsbury’s, National Power, Transco, Boots, London

Underground, NHS Estates, The Welsh Assembly,London Electricity and many other utilitiescompanies and local authorities. The NEC has giventhem far greater control of time, cost and qualityissues and better working relationships with theirconsultants and contractors.

ICE Conditions of ContractTerm versionICE, ACE and CECA

The concept of a term contract will be familiar tomost engineers. Local authorities and utilities haveused this type of contract for many years to carryout routine maintenance and remedial work withina set geographical area. A contractor is appointedto carry out such work for an agreed period of time(the term) carrying out such packages of work asmay be required by the Employer under conditionsset out in the Term Version.

The ICE Term Version is drafted bearing in mind thebenefits of team working and current procurementinitiatives. Therefore, it should be suitable forplanned maintenance or refurbishment work aswell as for emergency works where a contractormay be on call. It may also be suitable for theappointment of a short list of contractors under aframework agreement where a secondary biddingprocess may be used to choose one of thecontractors for larger packages of work.

Like the Measurement Version of the ICE Conditions ofContract, the Ground Investigation Version is based onthe traditional pattern of an investigation designed byan Engineer and carried out by a SpecialistContractor.

297 x 210 mm 0 7277 3237 4 £15.00

An Archaeological Investigation is usuallyundertaken to provide information:■ In response to a proposed development which

could cause damage to Archaeological Remains ■ As part of the planning process (within the

framework of appropriate national planning policyguidance notes) and/or development plan policy

■ As part of an Environmental ImpactAssessment

■ In connection with management plans andmitigation strategies of private, local andnational or international bodies

■ Outside the planning process (e.g.infrastructure projects, ecclesiasticaldevelopment, coastal erosion, agriculture,forestry and countryside management, worksby public utilities and statutory undertakers).

Where the Investigation finds Archaeological Remainsthey are recorded, analysed and interpreted and thefindings disseminated as appropriate.

These Conditions of Contract, the first of its kind,regulate the business relationship between theEmployer (e.g. Land owners, developers) and thespecialist Archaeological Contractor during the courseof an Archaeological Investigation. The Contract retainsa pattern traditional in civil engineering contracts, withan investigation commissioned by an Employer,designed or approved by an Engineer and carried outby a specialist Archaeological Contractor, only that theterm ‘Consultant’ is used instead of ‘Engineer’.

Its advantages include:■ Providing parties to the Contract with an

"advanced warning" of circumstances that maygive rise to additional costs or delay or whichmay warrant a significant change to the scopeof the Investigation

■ Enabling the minimisation of additional costand/or delay as well as potential for dispute

■ Minimising the incidence of disputes andresolving those that may arise in a speedy andnon-confrontational manner.

On the basis that many archaeological contractswill fall within the provisions of Part 2 of theHousing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act1996, this Contract has been drafted to complywith the legislation with the intention that thevarious Statutory ‘Schemes for ConstructionContracts’ should not apply.

Risk Assessment:Questions and AnswersA Practical Approach


The term ‘risk assessment’ is all too familiar inbusiness and applies not only to health andsafety but also other business processes. TheTurnball Report focused the minds of manybusinesses on risk management, but while wemay know that we must undertake riskassessments in health and safety, there is oftena lack of knowledge and understanding on howto do it and what is “suitable and sufficient”.

Each chapter covers a key health and safetyarea and the approach to risk assessment isoutlined in a series of questions – how, what,why, when? – and solutions and approachesgiven to understanding the legal requirementsand how to implement them. References aremade throughout to HSE approved codes ofpractice, best practice guidance and industryspecific guides. The book is aimed at everyonefrom company directors through to someonewho needs to assume the competent person’srole in undertaking health and safetyresponsibilities.
