What we provide

Solvix International supports employers, contractors, subcontractors, developers, project managers, and legal teams in defending or independently evaluating construction claims. We test whether the claim is contractually and factually supported, identify weaknesses or overstatements, and help shape a clear response strategy grounded in records, programme logic, and cost evidence.

Typical claim scenarios
we assess

  • Extension of time, prolongation, and concurrency positions
  • Disruption and loss of productivity allegations
  • Variation, change, and instructed re-sequencing claims
  • Acceleration, mitigation cost, and critical resource deployment claims
  • Loss and expense, preliminaries, and site overhead recovery

What the defence package can include

  • Executive review of strengths, weaknesses, and risk points
  • Clause-by-clause entitlement analysis and notice compliance commentary
  • Chronology, document register, and contradiction map
  • Delay or quantum challenge points aligned to the case theory
  • Draft rebuttal wording and negotiation talking points

methodology

How we defend and evaluate a construction claim

Our approach moves from allegation to tested position in a disciplined sequence. We challenge the claim on contractual entitlement, factual record, programme mechanics, and cost substantiation so decision-makers can respond with confidence.

service scope

What this service covers

Arbitration and litigation support typically sits at the point where project facts, contract rights, schedule impact, and financial consequences must be translated into a coherent case theory supported by records. Depending on the matter, our support may be narrow and targeted or integrated across several workstreams.

WHERE THIS SERVICE ADDS VALUE

Where this service adds value

Claims defence and evaluation is most effective when engaged early, but it is equally valuable when a fully formed claim has already landed and a response must be prepared quickly. The service can be scoped as a short diagnostic review or expanded into full dispute support.

Live project
support

Rapid review of ongoing claim notices, interim submissions, and emerging issues so the response strategy can be aligned while the project is still moving.

Formal claim rebuttals

Independent evaluation of an existing claim to identify evidential gaps, refine defence arguments, and prepare a stronger written response.

ADR and dispute readiness

Structured packs suitable for negotiation, mediation, adjudication, arbitration, or litigation support where clarity and documentary discipline matter.

FAQS

Frequently asked questions

Claims preparation develops and substantiates a party's affirmative claim. Claims defence focuses on challenging an incoming claim by testing entitlement, notice compliance, causation, programme impact, and quantum before a response is issued.

Yes. Engagements can be targeted to a single discipline such as delay analysis, quantum review, EOT assessment, or contractual entitlement. We can also provide an integrated review where the issues overlap.

Ideally, as soon as a notice, interim claim, or formal submission is received. Early review improves record preservation, narrows the real issues, and reduces the risk of reactive or inconsistent responses.

Yes. Our outputs are structured so they can support negotiation strategy, ADR, adjudication, arbitration, and litigation teams, while remaining grounded in project records and technical analysis.
