Dear Students:

Please see enclosed the following documents:

(1) Project A: Clauses 41.1 to 41.8 of the Standard Form of Building

Contract for a private foundation works project, and other related
clauses.

(2) Project B: MSD Design-Build-Operate Contract for District Cooling

System: (a) Clauses 96 and 96A of the Conditions of Contract (b) Clause
90.1 of the Conditions of Contract (c) Appendices 16 and 17 of the
Conditions of Contract

Supposing you are working as a contract manager of an engineering

organisation, and your newly incoming project director is asking you
about the contractual provisions in the above projects regarding the
ways for resolving disputes in case they arise.

Please identify the various dispute resolution methods provided in

these two contracts and write a report to the project director:

(1) To briefly describe the nature and characteristics of each of

those dispute resolution methods as provided in the contract
documents for these two projects.

(2) To concisely describe the procedures to be followed in each of

these two projects once a matter of potential dispute becomes
apparent and until up to the stage when a final and binding result
on the matter is obtained.

Please also express your view to the project director on which set of
procedures is better and should be adopted in the future projects of
your organisation, and briefly state the reason why you think so.

The project director is very busy and he expects that your report is brief
and concise and the number of words should not exceed 2,000.
However, in order to have sufficient coverage of the matters to be
reported, he considers that your report could not possibly be shorter
than 1,000 words.
