Construction projects’project contracts can include a huge amount of specifications and drawings. Such complexity increases the risk of errors in those documents and, of course, conflicts. Firstly there is a priority list that should be considered if there is an error in those documents. CCDC-14 indicated the agreement between architect and designer as the highest priority for any conflicts, which means that the court will first consider this agreement over others like drawings or specifications (2013, p. 14).
However, often most of the errors are happening in drawings and specifications. Designers should do their best to avoid such errors. They should use simple and consistent language in drawingdrawings and specifications. Also, they should care that the information is not repeated. The contract between owner and designer will be administrated by the contract administrator. Usually, architects act as agents of the owner. However, the contractor administrator acts on behalf of the contract itself. They are impartial and consider both sides right. So as 3rdthe third and impartial side contractor, the administrator will be very helpful for both sidesides to avoid any misunderstanding and errors in the contract detaildetails.
But there is always could be serious conflicts that couldcan not be easily resolved. After some notices in writing, any of the parties can proceed with the Arbitration of Construction Disputes issue. The arbitrator is not bound to any side and will analyze the issue in detail and make a decision which will be the best and final solution for any disagreements in construction projects (CCDC, 2013, p. 24).
