Streamline cost plus contract delay claims with automated EOT tracking and extension management. Protect your entitlements with our platform.
What are Delay Claims Under Cost Plus Contracts?
Delay claims under cost plus contracts occur when project schedules extend beyond agreed completion dates due to factors beyond the contractor’s control. Unlike fixed-price contracts, cost plus agreements require careful documentation of delays to protect both time extensions and additional costs. When delays happen, contractors need to submit Extension of Time (EOT) applications promptly to maintain their rights and avoid liability for consequential damages.
Cost plus delay claims are particularly complex because they affect not only the project timeline but also the total project costs, including extended overhead expenses and prolonged site management requirements.
Common Problems Australian Builders Face
Missing Critical EOT Deadlines
Without automated deadline tracking, builders often miss the narrow windows for submitting EOT applications under cost plus contracts. This oversight can result in losing entitlements to time extensions and becoming liable for costs.
Poor Documentation of Delay Events
Cost plus projects require detailed records linking delays to actual cost impacts. Manual documentation systems often fail to capture the comprehensive evidence needed to substantiate both time and cost claims effectively.
