AETRAA · Claims and delay advisory

Any EOT claim.
Submission-ready
in 7 days.

Independent, forensic extension of time and quantum services for contractors across the GCC.

Why speed matters

In construction disputes,
time is entitlement.

A conventionally prepared EOT claim typically takes 8 to 12 weeks. By the time it reaches the Engineer, leverage has already been lost.

TIME-BAR EXPOSURE
28 days.

Notice and particulars provisions leave no room for delay.

LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
Every day.

Every day without an extension is a day at risk.

CASH FLOW
Locked.

Recoverable costs remain locked until entitlement is established.

7 days. Not 12 weeks.

Notices on time.
Leverage intact.

A complete, submission-ready EOT claim within 7 working days of receiving the project records. Our forensic platform reviews, dates and indexes the whole record and runs the critical path analysis. Our senior consultants set the strategy, determine entitlement and sign off every submission.
