Our Service

Contract Management

Contract Management

Acton & Albury can offer comprehensive commercial strategy and contract form recommendations during the pre-contract and post-contract phases of a project. Early involvement in the pre-contract phase helps clients maximize risk reduction and optimize contract terms and conditions. Additionally, we assist clients in developing claims management strategies and project execution plans early on.

After contract signing, Acton & Albury provides a full range of contract and commercial management services, including quantity surveying consultancy, expert consultation, and professional training and development. This includes interpreting and applying contracts, ensuring compliance with contractual and legal requirements, establishing complete records and communication and documentation procedures as required by the contract, change management, commercial management, and contract risk tracking. These services can be provided remotely or through secondment of personnel to meet the needs of specific projects.

Acton & Albury provides consulting, management services, advice, and support at all stages of construction projects for both public and private sectors. Our in-depth understanding of the entire industry ensures that we deliver valuable forward-looking feasible solutions to our clients.

Construction Claims and Risk Management

Construction Claims and Risk Management

Our consultants possess extensive experience and expertise in contract claims and counterclaims. They formulate reasonable claims requests based on express or implied contract terms, legal entitlements, causation (delay analysis), and quantification (claim amounts) under the contract’s terms. Our consultants have successfully represented owners, main contractors, subcontractors, and arbitration panels (serving as experts appointed by the panel) in spearheading claim analysis, preparation, defense, and reporting in numerous cases.

Project Scheduling Management

Project Scheduling Management

Acton & Albury utilizes recognized planning software to prepare, update, and optimize anticipated construction project management. This allows for a hierarchical breakdown of the entire project scope (using a work breakdown structure) to achieve project objectives and deliver necessary deliverables. The work breakdown structure also provides the essential framework for detailed cost estimation and management, as well as guidelines for scheduling and management.

Additionally, our expert planners can conduct detailed delay analyses for complex projects using industry-recognized prospective and retrospective techniques. These analyses can support or defend claims in arbitration or litigation settings.
