RAVINDRA GALLANGODA, REGIONAL REPRESENTATIVE: OMAN & SRI LANKA
I am a contracts and claims specialist and lead the claims division of Milcris in Oman. I manage a range of specialist consultancy services related to contract administration, construction claims preparation, dispute resolution and project costs and dispute management advice for Milcris’ Clients.
Since 2014 I’ve actively focused my time and energy on activities relating to construction claims and contract administration and was inspired to seek membership with the ICCP. In addition to all the other membership benefits, the ICCP has helped me to improve my knowledge and develop my skills as a construction claim specialist.
I strongly believe that construction professionals in Oman should consider membership. Although a small market, Oman has a vibrant economy and a substantial level of construction activity. A decade ago, the construction claims market was rather dormant however in recent years, parties to construction contracts are more focused on protecting their rights. Moreover, COVID-19 and the subsequent oil price slump has greatly affected the economy. Project spending has tightened resulting in a more active construction claim sector.
I volunteered to represent the ICCP in Oman to encourage and assist construction industry professionals change from regular cost consultancy and quantity surveying roles to specialised claims roles, thus adding more professionals to the Omani construction claim market.
