The Queensland framework
The relevant legislation is the Building Industry Fairness (Security of Payment) Act 2017 (Qld).
Queensland applications are lodged with the Adjudication Registrar. The filing period depends on whether a schedule was received, whether its amount is disputed and whether payment was made. We establish the applicable pathway from the claim, schedule, due date and service evidence.
Our preparation work
We review the parties and contract, identify the claimed entitlement, reconcile the amount and organise the evidence. The written case addresses the disputed issues and links them to the supporting documents.
Dates and documents
Provide the contract date, project location, each payment claim and schedule, the payment due date and evidence of when documents were sent and received. Include any earlier adjudication involving the same work.
