Non-construction contracts If a dispute arises between the parties, the parties will attempt, in good faith, to reach settlement as soon as possible between the Barratt Contact and the Supplier Contact (who shall be authorised to settle such a dispute). Construction contracts Dispute resolution clauses are agreed at the tender and pre-contract stage. Thereafter, if there is a contractual dispute, the dispute resolution procedures laid out in the contract are invoked. Any dispute or difference arising under or in connection with the Contract may be referred to adjudication in accordance with the Scheme for Construction Contracts SI 1998 No 649.
