Hello All,
Could anybody advise on project prolongation cost under fidic as far as labour cost is concerned. I will give one example below. A project which has an original duration of one year was extended by 6 monthes due to varations and delays by Client decisions. so EOT claim was approved. Now what prolongation cost can the contractor claim?
1- Direct overhead (site staff overhead)
2- Company/ main office overhead
3- Equipment and Plant hire
4- Site facilities running cost.
The Real Question:
5- Labour?? can the contractor claim any additional cost/ overhead cost for labour? there are two cases:
a- No additional work variation order was granted? (pure delay from Client). what would be the claims against labour cost in this case.
b- Additional work variation order was granted against which labour were used. what would be the claims against labour cost in this case.
I would appreciate an answer/ comments to the above
Thanks and Regards,
Mel
