Dispute Resolution Boards

Dispute Resolution Boards (DRBs) are panels that help solve disagreements related to contracts, often in construction projects. A DRB typically consists of a few experts who review issues as they arise. Rather than waiting for a conflict to escalate, parties can present their concerns to the board, which offers recommendations or decisions. This proactive approach encourages communication and collaboration, helping to avoid lengthy and costly legal battles. By providing an informal and structured way to resolve disputes, DRBs aim to keep projects on track and maintain positive working relationships among all parties involved.
