Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Dear James,

It depends on the Conditions of Contract that you have. If it is under FIDIC, then you need to apply clause (20/1). The following will apply:

1. Event Giving Rise to Claim
Action needed: with 28 days

2. Notice of Intention to Claim. If not notice is given within the period specified, then no entitlement to time extension or aditional payment can be considered.
Action needed: With 14 days and on a Monthly basis every 28 days. If the Contractor fails to comply with these submittal periods, then his entitlements shall be affected by the extent to which such failure has prevented or prejudiced proper investigation or the claim.

3. Interim/ Final Account.
Action: with 42 days the client has to reply and settle the account.

4. Partial or complete Payment as substantiated as part of Interim Payment Certificates.

If your Conditions of Contract are under FIDIC, you can review this chapter for complete details, in addition to any other specific conditions within the Contract.

With kind regards,

Samer

Hi James,

I think it would help if you were a little more specific in what advice you are looking for
-are you preapring an EOT claim, or analysing one?
Do you need help on what are valid reasons for a claimable delay event?
Or the method used to establish the delay impact?
Or the contractual implications?
etc

Cheers,

G
