These risks can cause substantial increase in time and cost of contract performance if not adequately mitigated. Thus, claims for increased time of performance and increased direct and indirect costs may be inevitable on complex engineering and construction projects. This text identifies the most common reasons why construction claims occur and what owners and contractors can and should do to prevent them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTopics discussed include the following:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Situations causing costly claims\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Why construction disputes occur and how to promote early and amicable settlements\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Assessment of problems associated with poor project management performance\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Typical problems leading to delays, cost overruns, and claims on process plant and offshore oil \u0026amp; gas projects\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Claims prevention-early mitigation steps\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Project reviews\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Site investigation\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Claims mitigation during construction\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Cost control for the project manager\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Effective change order management\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Keys to successful major project execution\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Project team motivators and demotivators\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Claims can be mitigated if the owner coordinates and cooperates on multi-prime construction projects\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Commercial awareness training for EPC projects\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Contractor's risk analysis to reduce the risk of claims\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Owner and contractor guidelines to prevent claims\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"\u003e·       Construction claims analysis checklist\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Richard J.
