Frequently Asked Questions
Contra-charges are deductions made by a client claiming you owe money for issues like defective work or delays. To defend against them, you need strong evidence, such as accurate records, to demonstrate that the charges are unwarranted.
An extension of time (EOT) is a contractual provision that allows a project timeline to be extended when delays occur due to factors outside the contractor's control, such as late instructions or unforeseen events.
Pay-less notices inform a contractor or subcontractor of the client's intention to pay less than the amount claimed. Issuing or responding to these notices correctly is critical to avoid disputes or losing payment entitlements.
Accurate records, such as site diaries, RFIs, progress reports, and notices of delay, provide the necessary evidence to substantiate claims for extensions of time, loss and expense, or to defend against contra-charges.
Payment disputes can be resolved through steps like negotiation, adjudication, arbitration, or litigation. Well-prepared interim applications and final accounts increase the likelihood of success.
To ensure success, follow the contractual procedures for notices, identify relevant events and matters, and provide well-organized supporting documentation to justify the claim.
