Conflicts and Disputes in Construction Projects: An Overview

Abstract

Construction industry showing remarkable progression throughout the country, due to increasingly complex and fast-track construction projects; several projects are facing major problems like conflicts and dispute occurrence. These problems have become a widespread feature of the construction industry; if these are not resolute quickly they can worsen causing delays in schedule which results to claims that needs lawsuit measures to resolve them, loss of money & time. The main motto of this paper is to outcast the factors which are responsible for conflicts & dispute, hence in order to find out about these factors, a study is conducted which gives the variables responsible to these problem, some of these variables are due to owner, due to contract, due to human behavior etc. Since, conflicts & disputes are the reason of worry because a well planned construction project can‟t run smoothly, efficiently due to these problems. Therefore it is very important to manage them for better and efficient completion of the projects. This paper is expected to be assistance for the management of conflicts & dispute in upcoming projects.
