Solvix International supports contractors, employers, subcontractors, joint ventures, and counsel in converting complex project events into claim-ready submissions. Our work combines fact finding, contractual entitlement review, programme logic, and commercial substantiation so that the final claim is coherent, professional, and decision-ready.
Review project records, notices, correspondence, instructions, meeting minutes, site diaries, cost reports, and programme updates to establish a reliable factual foundation.
Identify the claim events, frame the issues in the correct contractual context, and map the relief being sought, whether for extension of time, prolongation, disruption, additional cost, or a combination of remedies.
Develop a persuasive chronology and narrative that links cause, contractual mechanism, and resulting impact in a way that can be understood by project teams, executives, and legal advisers alike.
Coordinate the technical, delay, and quantum workstreams needed to support the submission, including critical path considerations, contemporaneous evidence, and the logic behind the valuation approach.
Produce polished claim documentation that is commercially robust for negotiation yet disciplined enough to support adjudication, arbitration, dispute boards, or litigation if the matter later escalates.
Our methodology is intentionally practical: we do not just assemble documents; we turn them into a disciplined claim position. That means testing causation, closing evidential gaps where possible, aligning the claim with the governing contract, and presenting the outcome in a way that supports commercial resolution.
A structured sequence that builds the claim from the records through entitlement, time, and cost to submission.
A claim normally includes the notices, a statement of the facts, the contractual basis of entitlement, the delay analysis, the quantum calculation and an index of the supporting records.
As soon as the event happens. Most contracts set a time limit for notice, for example 28 days under FIDIC 2017, so notices should be issued first and the detailed claim prepared after.
Yes. We prepare claims for subcontractors against main contractors, and for main contractors against employers, including back-to-back claims.
Yes. We review what exists, identify gaps early, use contemporaneous records such as daily reports, correspondence and programme updates, and state any limits on the analysis.
It depends on the size of the project and the records. We usually give an initial view within a few days and agree the timetable for the full claim at the start.
Claims preparation turns project events into a submission that the other party, a contract administrator, or a tribunal can assess. It links each event to a contract mechanism, the supporting records, the time effect, and the cost consequence.
Identify each claim event, the clause relied on, the notice position, and the relief sought.
Collect and organise the correspondence, instructions, programmes, and cost records that support each event.
Coordinate the delay, disruption, and quantum analyses needed to support the time and money claimed.
Claims are often weakened not by a lack of entitlement but by late notices, scattered records, and a narrative that does not link cause to effect. We help structure the claim so that each element is supported and traceable.
Preparation of the delay event narrative, programme analysis, and entitlement case for additional time.
Build-up of time-related costs linked to the delay periods established in the time analysis.
Substantiation of instructed and uninstructed changes, including scope, valuation, and time effect.
Support for productivity loss claims using methods suited to the records available.
Review and rebuild of claims that have been rejected or only partly accepted, addressing the reasons given.
Consolidation of outstanding claims and variations into a structured final account position.
Construction claims preparation can be deployed as a proactive project support function or as a focused response when a live issue is becoming contentious.
Ongoing assistance to preserve notices, maintain event chronologies, organise records, and prepare rolling submissions while the project is still moving.
Independent review of an existing claim to identify evidential gaps, strengthen causation, refine entitlement arguments, and improve the presentation of the submission.
Structured packages aligned for adjudication, mediation, dispute boards, arbitration, or litigation support where clarity and evidential discipline are critical.
