Business case
Our client, a major player in telecommunications and the project owner in this case, entered into an EPC agreement to build a data centre in France. The main contractor for the project failed to achieve contractual milestones, and the project incurred an eight-month delay and cost overruns. The contractor initiated court proceedings against the owner to obtain additional compensation for prolongation costs and additional work performed during the course of the project.
Although our analysis was based on a very limited volume of data, we provided a complete assessment of the critical delay and the claimed amounts by each party based on the facts and figures.
we were engaged to provide independent delay and quantum reports on the causes of critical delays to the completion of the project, as well as the quantification of the contractor’s claims and the owner’s counterclaim.
