It is usual in arbitration and litigation proceedings associated with construction disputes that expert reports are provided to the tribunal to assist with the determination of the technical matters in dispute.
Each party to the dispute appoints its own experts to prepare its expert reports and subsequently give evidence if the dispute is not settled. The number of experts can vary depending on the disciplines involved in disputes; often and for the simpler disputes, there will be a single expert; for major and wide ranging construction disputes it is not uncommon to have up to 3 expert reports, dealing, for example, with quantum, programming, and engineering matters. Sometimes quantum and programming are handled by a single expert which is convenient and economical.
