Fairway Far East (Fairway) provides dispute management services.

Construction projects can be demanding and difficult, often executed under changing circumstances. Stringent performance and contract requirements, confused responsibilities and complex interrelationships coupled with low profit margins place considerable pressures on the contracting parties.

These pressures create technical and contractual problems and uncertainties which are increasingly difficult to resolve. As a consequence there is a greater incidence of disputes leading to costly litigation and arbitration, particularly where programme and cost overruns have occurred.

Fairway's multi-disciplinary team of project managers, engineers, planners, cost engineers and quantity surveyors provides clear, objective advice to the contracting parties and their legal advisors. Key members of its staff are qualified, experienced and internationally recognised arbitrators, mediators, adjudicators, contract administrators and expert witnesses.

The company's analytical programming, contract and cost management skills, coupled with its knowledge and experience of projects and contracts world-wide, enables it to identify the causes of problems and their effect on programme and costs. This expertise is vital in establishing cause and effect relationships; an essential element in the successful resolution of disputes. The same skills, experience and knowledge of the issues that create disputes if applied during the life of a project can lead to the avoidance of time and cost overruns and minimise the risk of disputes.

Fairway provide a complete service in the administration and control of projects and the management and resolution of contract problems and disputes.
