Adjudication is a quick and inexpensive, on-the-job method of dispute resolution resulting in an immediately enforceable, non-binding dispute settlement, by a third person, known as the Adjudicator. The Adjudicator is likely to be an expert first and foremost, ideally coupled with legal expertise, so will not need to hear or read large quantities of expert evidence to understand how the industry operates. This keeps time down to a minimum and avoids much unnecessary expense.
