Dispute Review Boards

Dispute Review Boards (DRBs) are panels established to help resolve conflicts during large construction or civil projects. Comprising neutral experts, typically with experience in the relevant field, DRBs work proactively to address issues as they arise. They review disputes submitted by project parties, provide recommendations, and facilitate communication to avoid escalation. The goal is to find solutions before disputes lead to costly delays or legal battles, helping projects stay on track and reducing the stress of conflict. Essentially, DRBs act as a supportive resource to maintain cooperation between all parties involved.
