The book is succinct, comprehensive and a practical introduction to the use of arbitration and ADR, written by leading practitioners and scholars. The Handbook begins with chapters on specific strategies and tools to help manage risks and avoid disputes in the construction field. It discusses ADR as it relates to subcontracting and labor disputes, the use of a neutral architect, the importance of site visits, and the significance of understanding ADR procedures before agreeing to them. The option of using mediation to resolve disputes is explored, including guidelines and tools for successful mediation, the expert’s role in construction mediation, and what works and what doesn’t work in construction disputes. The use of arbitration is also looked at in depth and guidance is provided for both the arbitrator and for the advocate. There is an entire section devoted to partnering (the creation of a working relationship between a building owner and a contractor which further involves subcontractors, design professionals, and other agencies), discussing its benefits and providing useful tips. Lastly, advice is provided for both small and complex construction claims, and the use of Dispute Review Boards (comprising panels of three technically qualified neutral individuals). The chapters were selected from an extensive body of writings and, in the main, represent world-class assessments of arbitration and ADR practice. All the major facets of the field are addressed and provide the reader with comprehensive and accurate information, lucid evaluations, and an indication of future developments. They not only acquaint, but also ground the reader in the field.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dispute Resolution Boards (DRB)s are a "job-site" form of dispute avoidance and resolution. DRBs have proven an effective, economic and user-friendly method of avoiding the extensive costs and diversions of resources usually associated with dispute resolution in the construction and engineering industries. Usually consisting of three experienced, respected and independent Adjudicators, the DRB is the generic phrase used to include Dispute Adjudication Boards, Dispute Review Boards and Panels and Dispute Conciliation Boards. The DRB is established at the commencement of a project. The Members are kept abreast of project activities by receipt of routine reports and periodic visits to the job-site. When inter-party negations reach deadlock disputes and claims are referred to the DRB at project level. The ICE has drafted this procedure to be used in conjunction with all standard forms of contract and for use both within the UK and internationally. Two alternative procedural rules are contained in this document. One has been devised for use on international projects and UK contracts which are not subject to the provisions of the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 (the Act) and the other is in full compliance with the Act. These procedures and rules may need to be modified to comply with any statutory requirements in the applicable jurisdiction. The ICE maintains a list of DRB Members, each of whom has been suitably trained and assessed by the ICE's Conciliation and Adjudication Advisory Panel (CAAP) as being qualified, experienced and capable of acting on DRBs in the UK and/or overseas. This List is available from the ICE website at: www.ice.org.uk/law Upon application, the ICE will appoint DRB Members from the published list. Application forms for such appointments are included within this document and are also available from the DAS or from the above website. Contained in these procedures are the following documents: - ICE Dispute Resolution Procedure Rules: Alternative One: For use on International Projects and UK Contracts which are not subject to the provisions of the UK Housing Grants Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 - ICE Dispute Resolution Procedure Rules: Alternative Two: UK Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996 (Act) Compliant - Dispute Resolution Board Agreeement - Tripartite Agreement (TPA) - Application for the appointment of a DRB Member or chairman - Requirements and application procedures for persons wishing to be considered for inclusion in the ICE's List of DRB Members - Requirements for DRB Member's Continuing Professional Development Criteria for entry to the ICE List of DRB members are available by application to the Disputes Administration Service (DAS) of the ICE or can be downloaded from the above website.

Download or read book Completing the "Big Dig" written by Transportation Research Board and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2003-03-21 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boston's Central Artery/Tunnel Project, a 7.8 mile system of bridges and underground highways and ramps, is the most expensive public works project ever undertaken in the United States. The original cost estimate of $2.6 billion has already been exceeded by $12 billion, and the project will not be completed until 2005, seven years late. The Massachusetts Turnpike Authority (MTA), the public steward of the project, requested that the National Research Council carry out an independent assessment of the project's management and contract administration practices, with a focus on the present situation and measures that should be taken to bring the project to a successful conclusion. This report presents the committee's findings and recommendations pertaining to cost, scheduling, and transitioning from the current organization dominated by consultants to an operations organization composed largely of full-time MTA staff. The report recommends that MTA establish an external, independent, peer-review program to address technical and management issues until the transition to operations and maintenance is complete; begin a media campaign now to teach drivers how to use the new system safely; and develop, immediately implement, and maintain a comprehensive security program.
