Global Construction Disputes

Mike Allen, Global Leader of Contract Solutions, Arcadis

The Sixth Arcadis Annual Global Disputes Report 2016 reveals key themes and insights into the global construction disputes market. Any dispute is case specific, so to endeavour to group causes and develop averages can risk omitting critical information related to the overall nature of the dispute. However given our range and depth of our coverage, dispute trends, both globally and regionally, are indicative of market trends. We have taken an in-depth, data-driven review of our projects and disputes globally in 2015 and focused on five key areas: the length of disputes, average value, common causes, most popular methods and region-specific nuances. This report also includes an overview of the macroeconomic market position and goes on to cover all regions in which the Arcadis Contract Solutions team operates, including North America, UK, Continental Europe, Middle East, Asia and a new section on Australia.
