NEC - 30. What happens when the PM doesn't reply properly either to a notification or a quota
Переглядів 4527 років тому
There are a number of stages that a compensation event needs to pass through before it becomes implemented under the contract. Is it possible for the Project Manager to de-rail the process by refusing to engage in it? If there is a lack of engagement what happens ideally and practically?
NEC - 29. Do the 63 7 assumptions work in practice?
Переглядів 4827 років тому
Clause 63.7 allows the Project Manager to give some working assumptions to the contractor where there is not enough detail available for a proper quotation for a compensation event. Are assumptions often given and if they are, do they help the contractor or just cover the Project Manager?
NEC - 28. Does clause 63 1 apply to assessing time as well as money and what are the consequences
Переглядів 6197 років тому
Clause 63.1 provides a dividing line between using the cost incurred and using a forecast of cost plus risk for future operations. Given that the compensation event process deals with all aspects of an event in one go does the dividing line established in 63.1 apply equally to delay caused by the event or is there some other mechanism that has to be used? If some other mechanism applies, does t...
NEC - 27. Compensation events tie together the consequences of events. Does that really work?
Переглядів 2437 років тому
The theory behind compensation events in the NEC is to take an event and deal with all of its consequences. Does that produce a better result or just a more complicated process? Is it really any different to other contacts in any event?
NEC - 26. How do the time bars in 61.3 operate? Do they sit well with 10.1 (mutual trust etc)?
Переглядів 5697 років тому
Clause 61.3 provides that, for certain compensation events, if the contractor does not notify them within 8 weeks of becoming aware of them it will lose the right to a change in the total of the prices and a revision to the completion date. This does not sound much like mutual trust and cooperation does it? Is it appropriate to have time bars in this contract and do they work?
NEC - 25. Which compensation events are most common and which are incorrectly claimed most often?
Переглядів 1,1 тис.7 років тому
The compensation event mechanism is intended to be a sole remedy under the contract. Therefore, the list of what can be a compensation event has to be all encompassing. Despite that breadth, are there trends for which ones are most common and are there particular events which rarely seemed to be claimed properly?
NEC - 22. Float and time risk allowance are the same aren't they?
Переглядів 2,3 тис.7 років тому
Both time risk allowance and float are provided within the requirements for the content of an NEC programme. What are the practical and programming differences between the two? How do you make sure you show them and use them effectively?
NEC - 24. Are the programmes requirements of NEC too complicated?
Переглядів 2197 років тому
Clause 31.2 contains a long list of what must be included within a compliant programme, as a minimum; and 32.1 adds to that for each update. Is this overly burdensome, particularly if the project is a relatively simple one?
NEC - 23. Is the programme I submitted with a CE a revised programme under 32.2?
Переглядів 4297 років тому
The contract requires that any compensation event that is said to have an impact on planned Completion must be supported by the alterations needed to the Accepted Programme (62.2). Does that mean a new programme has to be submitted and if it does is that then the new Accepted Programme?
NEC - 21. Is there an implied acceptance of programmes?
Переглядів 2117 років тому
Given how central the programme is to the NEC it must be important that everyone works to the same, up to date version of it. What happens then if a contractor submits a programme and hears nothing back? Is it accepted or not and does it make any difference?
NEC - 19. How much detail should the Programme include?
Переглядів 4367 років тому
For long and complex projects the programme can itself be complicated. How much information should anyone reasonably expect to see on a programme and does the distance away from “time now” matter? If activities of work are further in the future is it acceptable to provide less detail?
NEC - 20. Is an NEC programme just a bar chart?
Переглядів 2307 років тому
The programme is central to most processes under the NEC but what exactly is the programme? If it is not just a bar chart what exactly is it or what could it include?
NEC - 17 How do I recover my subcontractors overheads
Переглядів 3887 років тому
The NEC allows recovery of “Defined Cost” plus fee with each contract having a slightly different approach to the calculation of Defined Cost. How do you make sure that those definitions tie up with the supply chain so that no one is recovering extra percentage uplifts and therefore extra profit but equally no one is exposing themselves to risk of the unknown in pricing someone else’s fee.

NEC - 18 Does the payment mechanism under NEC work efficiently
Переглядів 7327 років тому
Most contracts assume the contractor will lead the payment application cycle with the certifier reviewing the application. Why is the NEC different in this regard in having the process led by the PM? Does that actually happen in practice and is the distinction important in any event?

    I wish the camera angle was chosen better. Focus should have been on the screen.

    Many thanks. I want to ask who determines which approach to be used?

    • @ewenmaclean7
      @ewenmaclean7 4 роки тому

      There is no set person who determines the approach, but a good expert should be able to advise on a particular case. Indeed, there are various factors that can influence the approach or choice of methodology. These can include, inter alia, any requirements in the Contract; the records available; the timing of the analysis, i.e. during the currency of the project or post project; and the complexity of the matter etc. However, post project, my experience is that courts or arbitration tribunals prefer retrospective analyses where it is known what actually happened. To this extent, the as-planned versus as-built windows analysis has proven to be reliable in such forums.
