Call for expression of interest for the establishment of a list of prospective individual experts to act as adjudicators for disputes arising from Operational Contracts of Fusion for Energy

The Call for expression of interest for the establishment of a list of prospective individual experts to act as adjudicators for disputes arising from Operational Contracts of Fusion for Energy has been launched.

A number of Operational Contracts1 of Fusion for Energy include a specific dispute settlement mechanism starting with "Adjudication", based on FIDIC contract provisions.

Adjudication is a procedure by which any party to a construction contract has a right to have a dispute decided by an adjudicator. This process is intended to be quicker and more cost effective than litigation or arbitration. The adjudicator(s) must generally decide the dispute in a very short time and the decision adopted is binding.

It is the intention of Fusion for Energy to include Adjudication not only into its construction contracts but to extend its application also to other areas of activity.

The panel of adjudicators should consist of highly qualified individuals (primarily engineers) specialised in the field of the subject matter of the dispute.

Fusion for Energy hereby invites applications from individuals with a view to establishing a list of individual independent experts who may be called upon to act as adjudicators in order to provide technical expertise related to their technical area for the resolution of claims. In addition, the adjudicators may be requested to attend a number of information sessions/training days to maintain sound knowledge of overall progress of the contracts and ensure early detection of any potential disagreement with Contractors.

The list shall be valid for a period of five years from the 31st of March 2010, date of publication of this call on the official website of Fusion for Energy.

Experts are expected to have a high level of professional experience in one or more areas of activities.

For further information, in particular on the technical areas, conditions of appointment, eligibility criteria etc. please consult the full text of the Call for Experts.

Should you wish to apply, please complete the online application form.

Please forward any queries you may have to f4e-experts@f4e.europa.eu.
