The CQIC mantra is that such disputes can be avoided by proactively managing quality and getting it right first time. However, we are not quite there yet and conflict and disputes are still arising and, of course there are other sources of conflict. Conflict and disputes come at a cost – financial, relationships and reputation. Collaboration on projects can break down which can have a serious impact on the delivery of quality.

At the end of a lengthy meeting it is invariably glossed over, with little to no real discussion, with perhaps a brief update on the numbers of snags and non-conformances on the quality tracker and how that has changed in the month. One of the innovations that CQIC is encouraging is the use of a dedicated quality meeting.

However, many working in the construction sector believe the CDP system is being used inappropriately and too late in the process. It is also believed that poor communication and a lack of coordination of details between the design team and the sub-contractors is common place. Across the various Scotland-wide forums CQIC have held about the challenges in delivering construction quality on projects, CDP was a recurring theme in the discussions.
