Binding expert determination for a technical dispute

Parties can agree in advance to a binding expert determination on clearly defined technical questions. The scope, parties, binding effect, process and payment arrangement need written agreement before the investigation begins.

A joint mandate

Identify every party, their representatives and the questions they jointly submit. A one-sided request does not itself bind another party.

Independent procedure

The expert's independence is checked. The agreed procedure defines documents, site visits, the opportunity for each party to be heard and any response round before the final report.

Proposal and costs

The proposal records the work, exclusions, fees and payment shares. Specialist measurements or destructive work are only included when expressly agreed.

Frequently asked question

Does selecting binding research in the form create a binding agreement?

No. The parties must first agree on the actual mandate and its binding effect in writing.
