Our Quantum Experts Services

Rimkus experts can help provide clarity on administering construction contracts from a time, cost, and technical perspective. We prepare advice on the parties’ obligations to notify, compile, and assess the impact of events in accordance with the contract and guidance on how tribunals will likely assess the matters in dispute. Other services from our quantum experts include informing on standard practices within the construction industry in a particular jurisdiction, assessing the damages incurred or entitlement due, and scrutinising the reasonableness of actions taken under the contract’s purview. The opinions of our experts guide the resolution process and help align the outcomes with the principles of reasonableness and industry practice.

Our quantum experts evaluate construction defects, assess workmanship against industry standards, and analyse delays and disruption. We opine on the quantification of damages, including repair costs, loss of use, financing, and third-party claims, as well as the interpretation of construction contracts and the impact of changes or deviations from the original plans.

Rimkus quantity surveying experts evaluate the cost planning and estimation, accuracy of bill of quantities, and financial impact of variations to the contract. We can also provide opinions on the reasonableness of costs submitted in claims, the adherence to industry standards in cost control, and the assessment of final accounts. This service includes auditing cost control systems and substantiation to validate the veracity of costs.

Rimkus quantum experts perform a detailed examination of financial claims and valuations. We evaluate the accuracy and reasonableness of cost estimates, pricing, and the overall financial impact of a dispute. By reviewing contractual terms, project documentation, and industry standards, our experts offer an informed opinion on the legitimacy of claims and whether they adhere to the contract provisions. These analyses often include the assessment of additional costs, valuation of work completed, and the financial consequences of project delays or disruptions.

Rimkus experts in loss and expense claims provide comprehensive opinions on the financial aspects of a dispute. We can assess the validity and extent of claims related to project overruns, unanticipated costs, and expenses incurred due to delays or disruptions, in relation to the contract protocols. We can analyse contractual obligations and project documentation to evaluate the reasonableness of claims brought by either an employer or contractor, assisting the court and tribunal in quantifying the financial impact of disputed actions.
