Ted Lowery considers a case in which the adjudicator carried out his own delay analysis

The facts

During 2015 Victory House engaged RGB as a design and build contractor for a hotel project in Leicester Square. Practical completion took place in September 2017 some 16 months late. In April 2018 RGB submitted a final statement claiming an adjusted contract sum of over £11m including loss and expense based upon an extension of time of 67 weeks. Victory House rejected the extension of time claim and assessed the contract sum at less than £6m, taking into account its entitlement to liquidated damages.
