Dispute Resolution
Construction projects are complex and often lead to claims on both sides.
Out-of-court dispute resolution is often the most economical and best way for both parties to avoid lengthy court proceedings.
We would be pleased to advise you on how we can support you in a dispute resolution process.
Support in Dispute Resolution Proceedings
Construction operations expertise for out-of-court and court proceedings
Construction projects are complex. Differing interests, tight schedules, technical challenges, and economic pressure often lead to conflicts. When change orders, disruptions, extensions of time, or additional costs become disputed, a well-founded construction operations analysis is decisive.
As engineers specializing in construction operations, we support clients, contractors, investors, and legal advisors with well-founded expertise in dispute resolution proceedings — structured, comprehensible, and with a clear focus on the essentials.
Our Role in Disputes
We combine technical understanding with construction economic expertise.
We analyze projects not only on the basis of contracts and construction processes, but evaluate them holistically in the context of schedule planning, resources, cost development, and project organization.

Methodologically Sound – Documented in a Comprehensible Manner
Our work is based on a structured evaluation of project documentation such as construction contracts, schedules, site diaries, minutes, and billing documents. Using recognized construction-operational methods, we analyze cause-and-effect relationships and quantify their impact on construction time and costs.
Transparency and traceability are central to our approach. Our findings are clearly documented and supported by argumentation — both for out-of-court negotiations and for arbitration or court proceedings.
