Abstract
This research investigates the relationship between risk factors and contractor's claim in a 'fast track' project Risk factors which have been identified are based on risks and responsibilities allocation clauses in a civil engineering standard form of contract The objective of the study is to determine the relationship between 'fast track' risk factors and contractor's claim so that the understanding of it can aid in the avoidance of or mitigating claims by effective risk management and construction management from the early stage of the project. The perception that led to this study, is that when risk management is not adopted from the early stage of a project, the contractor who deliberately or otherwise underestimated the risks is most likely to get the work. When the effect of the risks increases he must then successfully claim compensation from the client or suffer the loss. This increases the incidence of claims problem and is especially so with 'fast1rack' projects as they are affected by all the risks commonly inherent in normal projects but at a greater impact. The need to identifY risks as early as possible in a project's life is not only for project constraints and cost to be ascertained, but also to focus project management towards risk controlling and allocating methods so that claims can be mitigated.
