What is Adjudication?

Introduction to Construction Adjudication

Definition:

Adjudication is a quick, interim dispute resolution process primarily used in construction contracts to resolve disputes on an ongoing project.

Objective:

Provide a binding decision within a short timeframe, allowing project progress to continue without lengthy delays.

Why Adjudication?

  • Speed: Typically concluded within 28 days (PPDA), 84 days (FIDIC) offering a rapid resolution compared to arbitration or litigation.
  • Cost-Effective: Generally less expensive than court proceedings/Litigation.
  • Flexibility: Adjudicator has discretion in procedures, making the process adaptable to the specifics of the dispute.
  • Interim Binding: The decision is binding until the dispute is finally resolved by arbitration or litigation, if necessary.
