Claims and Dispute Resolution

Claims and dispute resolution is about establishing the facts behind delay and cost, quantifying entitlement accurately, and presenting it clearly enough that matters are resolved on evidence rather than assertion. We provide the independent forensic analysis and contractual expertise needed to prevent, prepare, evaluate, and defend claims across NEC, JBCC, FIDIC, and GCC forms of contract and to resolve disputes efficiently when they arise.

How we do it

We bring independent, forensic rigour to every claim. Our planners and cost specialists reconstruct what happened on the programme, isolate cause and responsibility, and value the time and cost consequences using recognised delay-analysis and quantum methods. Whether we are building a claim, defending against one, or advising before matters escalate, our analysis is structured to support negotiation, adjudication, and arbitration and to withstand the same scrutiny we apply to it. Drawing on the discipline of high-stakes engineering environments where the facts simply have to be right, we help clients protect their position and reach defensible outcomes efficiently.

Built on Delivery. Backed by Trust.

“I have worked with C-Squared for the past 10 years in the project management sphere. C-Squared provides professional project management services and have always been a go to organisation and a partner for the management of large, complex projects. C-Squared is a partner of choice which has the diversity of skills from strategic decision making to practical management of projects. Flexible enough to resource key positions alongside the clients organisation or provide a full turn key solution. I strongly recommend C-Squared.”

"My interaction with C Squared occurred during the execution of safety upgrade projects on the Koeberg Nuclear Power Plant. C-Squared acted on behalf of the client and project managed these interventions. Performing modifications on an operating nuclear power station is very complex and involved many additional dimensions such as radiation protection and nuclear safety. C-Squared personnel were very professional in performing the contract management, planning, site installation management and overall project management. They were very thorough and applied diligence to execute the projects on time and within budget - and safely!"

"Nuclear Consultants International, an EPC company, has completed various projects at Eskom's Koeberg Nuclear Power Station where C-Squared acted as the Owner's Project Management agent. They were consistent and effective in their performance and always acted in a spirit of trust and co-operation. NCI valued the professionalism and integrity that C-Squared added to the projects' and their successful completion."

"C-Squared has demonstrated the ability to successfully manage complex engineering and construction projects that many in our organisation thought could not be achieved within the challenging timelines. The company, through its leadership, acumen and drive for excellence, possesses strong project and contract management competencies that have added substantial value to our business through the successful realisation of plant improvement projects and programs.”

"We worked with C-Squared on a major complex retrofit project with ESKOM on Nuclear plant. My experience is that it is not so easy to find advanced project management skilled people on such projects. C-Squared did an exceptional job. Very professional and constructive which led to successful implementation and satisfaction from all parties."
