Quantum Analysis 

We have a detailed understanding of the factors that can give rise to delays and cost overruns and how claims for compensation need to be made if they are to be successful.

We are regularly commissioned to carry out the identification, assessment and presentation of quantum entitlements. This can be done as an independent exercise or by the management of our clients’ in-house resources.

We are highly experienced in addressing the quantum attributable to the following heads of claim:

• Prolongation of the works on site
• Liquidated damages for delay
• General damages for delay
• ‘Thickening’ of resources/preliminaries
• Valuation of changes/variations
• Rectification of defects (incurred and future)
• Valuation of work on the basis of quantum meruit
• Additional overhead costs
• Loss of contribution to overhead recovery
• Loss of profit
• Disruption / loss of productivity / uneconomic working
• Third party claims and settlements
• Diminution in value
• Reduced life cycle
• Loss of facility/process time
• Inflation/price fluctuations
• Finance charges
• Currency fluctuations
• Interest
