Holloway Consulting’s resort, condo and hotel projects

Resort Hotel, California

Some have described this hotel construction dispute as a garden variety schedule delay and damages case. However, we found it to be much more interesting. At the end of the job, the general contractor filed a delay damages claim against the owner, and the owner of the 230-unit condominium complex at the ski resort then filed an affirmative claims for lost profits and other damages against the general contractor.

Holloway Consulting was retained by the owner to objectively analyze the contractors’ claims, and provide an assessment as to how to resolve these disputes. One of our key initial findings was that the construction contractor’s claims against the owner lacked credibility because it had blamed the concrete, steel, building wrap, drywall, tile, glass/glazing, millwork and other subs during the resort hotel project for basically the same claims it made against the owner.

Holloway also established that there should have been no real disagreement between the parties that the PT concrete subcontractor (1) generally placed defective guestroom floor concrete that had to be repaired, (2) delayed the completion of its structural concrete by five months, and, (3) delayed the substantial completion date by eight months.

These cases primarily involve architectural design errors and omissions and the related cost of defects repair damages.

Holloway’s Client, the General Contractor, entered into a contract with the Owner, whereby the General Contractor agreed to build the Resort Hotel for cost, plus a fixed fee. During the course of the Project, the Owner made a significant number of changes in the plans and specifications. Based on our schedule delay, and construction costs and damages analysis, Holloway found that the changes in the work, combined with the need for numerous RFIs, the failures to provide necessary information, approvals and decisions, and demands that the work progress in accordance with unadjusted construction schedules, constituted a cardinal change in the work. The arbitration panel agreed with our opinions, and ruled that our client’s termination was for the owner’s convenience, and issued a judgement in our client’s favor for all costs plus OH&P.
