The chance of being claimed against is now a major risk factor for every building designer, engineer, quantity surveyor and project manager. Apart from the cases that go to court, many other claims are settled before they reach that stage. The cost of insurance to meet claims is now a substantial component of every practice's overheads. Sensible risk management can identify the potential sources of claims, reduce their likelihood, warn of impending trouble and control how the claim is to be defended. This book explains how to plan a risk management strategy and suggests techniques that can supplement the practice's existing management procedures without imposing unnecessary bureaucracy. It attaches as much importance to the interaction of risk between members of the design team as to the risk profile of the practice itself. The first part defines risk and its origins, discusses how risk can arise in the various professions and types of practice, and how it interacts between the professions, compares quality assurance with risk management, and advises on the relations between the practice, its insurers and its lawyers. It concludes with advice on how to create a risk strategy and system for the office. The second part is devoted to techniques and covers: setting up the appointment; creation of the team; managing the project; the risks of CDM; the complications of procurement; and drafting, awarding and administering the building contract. Risk implications of the major contract forms are discussed in detail. It concludes with advice on the handling of claims. The book contains references to a number of legal cases to illustrate the risks discussed. It is recommended reading not only for the individual professions (architect, engineer, QS, project manger), but for all of them collectively in understanding how the risk of one profession can become the risk of any of his fellow team members.

Avoiding Claims in Building Contracts is a detailed guide on how to avoid and deal with the costly and damaging disputes which are increasingly occurring under building contracts. It is a study of the practical implications of claims in which the author has had extensive experience. Contractual disputes can put the parties involved, who are sometimes dragged in through no fault of their own, under enormous financial strain, even forcing some into liquidation. As well as being costly to resolve they are recognised as being generally damaging to the national economy. This book is divided into sections addressed to the various participants in building contracting, each section recommending the steps which that participant should take in order to avoid the necessity for the making of claims or, if they do occur, how to mitigate their effects. It provides a much needed reference and information source.
