Dispute Resolution

The best way to manage construction claims is to stop them before they happen. Hill is a pioneer in dispute resolution services, leveraging the lessons learned from our decades of claims consulting on all sides of the construction project to help identify and rectify potential areas for claims, work with all involved parties to find equitable solutions to existing disputes, and keep your project progressing as planned. We begin our dispute resolution services by establishing clear lines of communication among the various participants in the project team. This includes the owner’s representatives, designers for the owner, designers for the contractor, and any other parties that can impact decisions throughout the project. We emphasize issue tracking to identify potential disputes early and make certain that they are dealt with in a timely manner. Hill can also help establish dispute resolution boards, set up through an equitable process between the owner and the contractor. Whatever resolution services you require, Hill’s claims personnel have served as testifying experts, mediators, and arbitrators, and stand ready to play an active or behind the scenes role to resolve disputes by blending technical analysis and mediation services to help reach a fair, negotiated settlement.

Troubled Project Turnaround

While project management is most effective when implemented before construction begins, our PM support can also help clients regain control after problems have caused delays or overruns. To “turnaround” a project, Hill’s teams design new schedules, create new plans, and implement procedures to get the project back on track and realize project goals.

Commissioning

Hill’s approach to commissioning starts with developing a strong understanding of the owner’s requirements, the design intent, the systems installed, and the project goals. Hill then develops a plan that integrates this understanding, commissioning communications, a complete outline of testing to be performed with the acceptance criteria, documentation required, and a training outline. The result is systems that function as specified, from start-up to the end of their life cycle.
