Prolongation and Disruption Cost Claims
A comprehensive 3-day technical workshop for contract managers, project controls specialists, delay analysts, and legal practitioners with a minimum of 2 years of relevant industry experience. Learn practical techniques for prolongation cost assessment (Hudson, Emden, Eichleay formulae) and disruption cost assessment (Measured Mile, Total Cost, Productivity Factor), aligned with the SCL Protocol and AACE International Recommended Practices.
What this program covers
Prolongation and disruption are central components of construction claims, arising when projects face extended durations or reduced productivity due to unforeseen events. Prolongation relates to time-related costs incurred when compensable events push a project beyond its planned completion date, including extended site overheads, staff retention, plant and equipment costs, and prolonged resource deployment. Disruption occurs when work is executed less efficiently than planned due to factors such as design changes, restricted access, or late information, increasing the cost of performing the same scope of work without necessarily extending the project duration. This 3-day capacity building program equips participants with industry-accepted techniques including the Hudson, Emden, and Eichleay formulae for prolongation, and the Measured Mile, Total Cost, and Productivity Factor approaches for disruption, aligned with the SCL Protocol and AACE Recommended Practices, to establish entitlement, quantify impacts, and build evidence-based, arbitration-ready claims.
