Delay in commissioning the plant

  1. Plant. The composition subsystem level, the relationship and classification of executable functions.

Customer: You've received our claim, haven't you?

Contractor: Yes, and it came as a bit of a surprise, I must say. You hold us responsible for the delay in commissioning the plant. True, the work on the project was suspended for four months, but it was the result of many circumstances, among them force-majeure ones.

Cast.: Sure, leave alone the flood and the fire. What we mean is you've delayed the start up for another three months.7 We may have to claim penalties at fixed rates.

Contr.: Oh, I see. Let me explain things to you then. First, for more than two months we couldn't send our specialists to you, as you were having difficulty with accommodation. Then there was the matter of entry vi­sas which couldn't come through for two months. And when our people finally arrived it turned out you were unable to get the right materials for them to work according to schedule. That was another two weeks.


Cust.: All this Is correct. But you never brought up the question of exten­sion.

Contr.: We didn't. We saw no point in that since we're entitled to an exten­sion anyway. But we are declining the claim.

Cust.: Well, I'm afraid things are not as simple as that. We'll have to look into the matter again.

Contr.: Good. When could we have your reply?

Cust.: It'll take time. Anyway, we'll let you know as soon as we get things straight.

Contr.: O.K. We'll be expecting your message.8

A few days later the contractor received the following e-mail message:

THE CLAIM IS WITHDRAWN, WE SHALL GRANT EXTENTION OF THE TIME FIXED IN CONTRACT 3525.
