Mr Allen is a partner of EC Harris LLP, Built Asset Consultancy. He is the Group head of Contract Solutions, which is a service that includes the assessment and valuation of construction disputes.

He works and advises on many EC Harris projects, as well as acts as an Expert Witness in Litigation, Arbitration and Mediation both in Asia and other parts of the world.

Most construction projects of one form or another suffer from delay, which invariable causes a disturbance to the way the contractor had originally planned to progress the works. What caused the delay, what the effect is, and what the financial consequences are has been the subject matter of many problem final accounts and also formal disputes. The talk will focus upon some of the key elements that contribute to the successful identification and subsequent valuation of such delay or disturbance.
