Productivity Claims
Construction Claims
Assumed
subcontractor and labor productivity rates are
important in determining the
financial success of a project
for both contractors and owners.
When losses are suffered,
additional labor costs (profit
losses) can be
the largest element of those
shortcomings. Subcontractor and
labor cost overruns can be
attributed to numerous causes
and factors. One such cause
which is commonly a point of
contention between owners and
contractors is direct labor
productivity loss claims.
Proving and pricing lost
productivity claims can be a
difficult task. However, if
certain basic fundamentals are
present, accepted methods of
analysis do exist. Additionally,
from an owner's perspective,
analyzing and responding to a
contactor's productivity claim
can be a difficult process.
