These Conditions of Contract, the first of its kind, regulate the business relationship between the Employer and the specialist Archaeological Contractor during the course of an Arcaeological Investigation. The Contract retains a pattern traditional in civil engineering contracts, with an investigation commissioned by an Employer (Landowners, developers etc.), designed or approved by an Engineer and carried out by a specialist Archaeological Contractor, only that the term 'Consultant' is used instead of 'Engineer'. Its advantages include:Providing parties to the Contract with and ""advanced warning"" of circumstances that may give rise to additional costs or delay or which may warrant a significant change tothe scope of the Investigation; enabling the niminisation of additional cost and/or delay as well as potential for dispute; minimising the incidence of disputes and resolving those that may arise in aspeedy and non-confrontational manner.On that basis that many archaeological contracts will fall within the provisions of Part 2 of the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996, this Contract has been drafted to comply with the legislation with the intention that the variouw Statutory 'Schemes for Construction Contracts' should not apply.

"The ICE Arbitration Procedure 2006" has been written to meet an industry demand for the adoption of more appropriate arbitration options to resolving disputes. The purpose of arbitration is to achieve a fair resolution of disputes by an impartial Arbitrator without unnecessary delay or expense. The Arbitrator gives each party a reasonable opportunity of presenting a case and deals with that of the opponent. This revised Procedure will be familiar to users of the ICE Arbitration Procedure 97 but has been updated to ensure that all parties adopt a more appropriate procedure that will reduce time and costs. In this revised procedure, the Documents Only Procedure is used on low value disputes, the Expedited Procedure (time limited) on medium value disputes and the standard arbitration procedure is used on high value disputes. A table that sets out a value of dispute band against the procedure to be used is also included in the procedure.
