Whose Interpretation Is Correct
Whose Interpretation Is Correct
If the owner forces the contractor to follow its interpretation, then the contractor can claim because it is
a change to the contractor. Usually, this is what happens. The owner has a stronger position and orders.
He does not negotiate. When an owner orders, there is no room for negotiation. If the contractor keeps
on silently accepting the owner’s interpretation, it becomes unbearable at some stage. No one knows
when this stage comes. When it comes, you are in a full-grown dispute.
