March 2021 newsletter: We are here to help!

12/3/2021

 
Welcome to our March Newsletter. We hope that you find it interesting.
Whilst still below pre-covid numbers, nevertheless it was pleasing to read that the Office for National Statistics have reported (release 12 March 2021), a return to growth for construction output in January 2021, driven by growth in new work activity, with output up 0.9 per cent in the month (following a 2.9% drop in December 2020). Hopefully this positive growth will continue in 2021. However as an industry we know that we still have many challenges ahead.

In these difficult trading times, as we all know, it is more important than ever that companies safeguard and protect their position in their dealings with others, including both contractually and financially. Unfortunately, however, the incidence of disputes (whilst undesirable) are inevitable as part of this process and a by-product of the current tough climate. Matthew Davies’ recent article discusses a case where things can quickly escalate into a costly dispute, which was not helped in this case by the absence of a formal written Contract.

As a practice we are continuing to see a large increase in disputes and demand for our services.

If you have a construction dispute why not contact us to see if we can help? We are a modern and innovative construction contract and commercial, and dispute resolution consultancy, specialising in providing contractual and commercial support services (both non-contentious and contentious) to those operating in the Construction industry. We have extensive experience and a proven tract record in the resolution of construction disputes. We give sound advice. We attempt dispute avoidance techniques initially (where appropriate to do so), and only where this fails, we give a committed service and provide hard work to attempt to obtain the best result that we can for our clients through a formal dispute resolution process. When it comes to Adjudication Blue Sky ADR regularly and very successfully represents parties, both in pursuing and in defending Adjudication actions; it has done so for many years and our staff have extensive experience and knowledge in this complex and specialist area.

We are always here to help you when you need our assistance, and even through all of the recent unprecedented and extremely trying times, it has still been business as usual for Blue Sky ADR Ltd. Our services and support to you and your team can, in the majority of instances, still be provided remotely by us, and we remain contactable by phone, email or post (key contact details are provided below). Files and papers can still be sent to us electronically. In the event that a meeting is required this can still be done by telephone or a video conference can be set up. If you allow us to provide our support to you through these most difficult of times we will do our absolute best for you. Please stay safe and we hope to hear from you soon.

Best Regards

Peter Barnes and Matthew Davies
