From Variations to EOTs: How to Defend Claims - Your Framework for Success (EP 191)
In this episode, Paul is joined by Matthew Greenhalgh, Director at ICRS Consult, to explore the world of construction claims management and dispute resolution.
Matthew shares his journey in the construction industry, reflecting on the complexities of managing claims and why there is a lack of resources like books on this topic. He discusses the essential skills he developed to navigate this challenging field successfully.

- The Importance of Variations: Matthew highlights why variations are often misunderstood or overlooked in claims and shares strategies for effectively demonstrating and managing variations to avoid costly disputes.
- Best Practices and Common Pitfalls: Matthew offers advice on best practices for claim submissions, including the importance of a comprehensive narrative and supporting documentation, while warning against the risks of recycling claim documents.
