Why Choose Project Delay Management and Claim Assessment Master Class Training Course?

The Project Delay Management and Claim Assessment Master Class Course gives project, insurance, and risk management professionals a comprehensive, structured understanding of construction project delay management — covering contract administration, Construction All Risks (CAR) policy coverage, Advanced Loss of Profits (A.L.O.P) insurance, claims management, and the risk and performance bond frameworks that protect project stakeholders against the financial consequences of delay.

Construction project delays are among the most commercially significant and legally complex events in project delivery. When delays occur whether from unforeseen ground conditions, supply chain disruption, force majeure, or contractor default the financial consequences can be severe, and the insurance, contractual, and claims management responses must be coordinated carefully to protect all stakeholder interests.

This course addresses every dimension of that challenge from FIDIC contract conditions and CAR policy structures, through A.L.O.P coverage details, loss adjuster roles, consequential loss assessment, and risk management frameworks, to performance bonds, claims management procedures, and real case studies drawing on MENA and Asian project delay scenarios.

The Project Delay Management and Claim Assessment Master Class Course is built for project, insurance, and risk professionals who want the contractual knowledge, insurance literacy, and claims management capability to navigate project delays with competence and confidence.

What are the Goals?

The Project Delay Management and Claim Assessment Master Class Course is designed to develop comprehensive project delay and claims management capability from contract administration and construction insurance fundamentals through CAR policy coverage, A.L.O.P insurance, claims handling, and risk management.

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Explain project stakeholder management requirements and the role of insurance in construction project risk management
  • Apply ALOP cover principles to loss mitigation and evaluate current project delay contexts in MENA and Asian markets
  • Evaluate how CAR policies are structured, including period of cover, general exclusions, policy conditions, and multi-policy site arrangements
  • Explain relevant CAR policy coverage sections and assess their application to construction loss scenarios
  • Interpret policy operative clauses, sum insured, and limit of liability provisions and evaluate consequential loss coverage implications
  • Evaluate Section II losses, delay-related claims, and how consequential losses are assessed under CAR policies
  • Explain who buys A.L.O.P cover, what its coverage and exposures are, and how it connects to Section I of the CAR policy
  • Evaluate A.L.O.P exceptions and conditions and understand the role of loss adjusters in A.L.O.P claims handling
  • Apply risk management frameworks and claims management procedures to construction project delay scenarios
  • Evaluate performance bonds and apply case study learning to real construction delay and A.L.O.P claim scenarios

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our training courses

Days 2 and 3 cover CAR policy structure and coverage in depth, examining how policies are arranged, what the relevant coverage sections cover, how period of cover and handover issues are managed, the general exclusions that apply including war-related losses, and how policy conditions such as taking reasonable precautions affect claims. Delegates also examine policy operative clauses, sum insured, limit of liability provisions, and how Section II losses and consequential losses are assessed under CAR policy frameworks.  

Consequential loss assessment is addressed within Day 3, examining how consequential losses from construction project delays are defined under CAR policy frameworks, whether they are covered under standard CAR policies or require specific A.L.O.P cover, and how the distinction between direct physical loss and consequential financial loss is applied in claims assessment. Delegates develop the claims interpretation capability to evaluate consequential loss scenarios and understand what policy provisions and conditions apply.  

FIDIC contract conditions are introduced within Day 1 and referenced throughout the course as the contractual framework within which most international construction project delay disputes and insurance claims arise. Delegates examine how FIDIC provisions interact with insurance policy conditions, how delay events are categorised under contract, and how contract administration obligations affect insurance coverage and claims entitlements. This cross-disciplinary understanding is essential for any professional involved in construction project delay management.  

Advanced Loss of Profits cover protects project owners against the financial losses arising from delayed project completion covering the revenue, profit, or operational income that cannot be earned because the project is not completed on time. Day 4 covers A.L.O.P in detail, examining who buys it, what the coverage and exposure profiles are, what exceptions and conditions apply, how it connects to Section I CAR coverage, and how loss adjusters manage A.L.O.P claims. Delegates develop the insurance literacy to evaluate A.L.O.P coverage decisions and contribute to claims management processes involving delay-related financial losses.  

The role of loss adjusters is addressed within Day 4, examining how loss adjusters are appointed, what their professional responsibilities are in assessing construction delay and A.L.O.P claims, how they interact with project owners, contractors, and insurers, and what the key assessment challenges are in quantifying delay-related losses. Delegates develop the practical understanding of loss adjuster processes that helps all parties contribute more effectively to claim resolution rather than experiencing the process as opaque or adversarial.  

Risk management for construction projects is addressed within Day 5, covering how construction project risks — including delay risks — are identified, assessed, and monitored through the project lifecycle, how risk management processes integrate with project monitoring and insurance arrangements, and what the most effective strategies are for preventing and mitigating project delays before they trigger insurance claims and contractual disputes. Delegates develop the risk management awareness to treat delay prevention as an ongoing discipline rather than a reactive response.
