Mediation of Contract Dispute
Mechanism
- When a government agency and a company are unable to reach an agreement over a contract execution dispute, they may apply to the Complaint Review Board for mediation. The agency concerned may not reject such an application submitted by a company.
- In the absence of Government Procurement Act special regulation, the stipulations of the Code of Civil Procedure regarding mediation will be applied to the procedures and effects of mediation; the results of mediation, therefore, have the same effect as amicable settlements reached under legal procedures (that is, the effect is the same as a legal verdict).
