UK Adjudicators are signatories to the Conflict Avoidance Pledge and support the work of the Conflict Avoidance Coalition, which is a coalition of leading international organisations and businesses working to prevent conflict and reduce disputes in Infrastructure and the built environment.

The Conflict Avoidance Coalition brings together over 100 leading organisations - including public bodies, contractors, consultants, and professional institutions - who are united in a shared mission: to reduce the financial, reputational, and relational costs of disputes through better conflict management.

Major infrastructure owners - like Transport for London, Network Rail, the Environment Agency and the Houses of Parliament Restoration and Renewal Programme 

Major contractors including Laing O’Rourke, Kier, Skanska and Balfour Beatty

Professional institutions - including RICS, ICE, CIC, CIArb, ICES, RIBA, ICC, and DRBF 

The Coalition is working tirelessly to embed conflict avoidance mechanisms across the industry to improve project outcomes and strengthen partnerships.

By sharing knowledge, promoting best practices, and supporting early resolution methods, we're making the industry more resilient, efficient, and productive.


The Pledge

"We believe in collaborative working and the use of early intervention techniques throughout the supply chain, to try to resolve differences of opinion before they escalate into disputes.

We recognise the importance of embedding conflict avoidance mechanisms into projects with the aim of identifying, controlling and managing potential conflict, whilst preventing the need for formal, adversarial dispute resolution procedures. We commit our resources to embedding these into our projects.

We commit to working proactively to avoid conflict and to facilitate early resolution of potential disputes.

We commit to developing our capability in the early identification of potential disputes and in the use of conflict avoidance measures. We will promote the value of collaborative working to prevent issues developing into disputes.

We commit to work with our industry partners to identify, promote and utilise conflict avoidance mechanisms."
