Client Testimonials
"When I spoke to the client a few days ago, the senior in house lawyer was full of praise for your work. He said that you have been extremely helpful, the quality of your work has been excellent and that the client’s team has enjoyed working with you. He is sure that they will be looking to work with you again in the future."
Independent Delay & Quantum Analysis
Infrastructure project in Northern Europe
"[…] very significant projects, involving complex questions of delay and I have always found you to be, by far, the most user-friendly delay analyst I have worked with. The quality of your work speaks for itself, and I would have no hesitation in recommending you on future projects.
Hopefully we will work together again soon."
Claim & Expert Witness assessments
3x infrastructure projects in Europe & Asia
"Amaël […] has undertaken detailed and highly complex analysis of the critical path and delays incurred across many different aspects of the project involving tunnelling, earthworks and road construction elements. He has demonstrated an ability rapidly to process vast quantities of contemporaneous record data on large projects in order to assist in the identification of the actual critical path, thereby providing excellent value to the client contractor. […] Throughout, in all my dealings with him, he has demonstrated professionalism, objectivity and independence whilst at the same time being able to work as part of the team to provide realistic and convincing conclusions, rather than simply a product of computer analysis.
I am happy to recommend Amaël Olivier to provide expert analysis and advice in his particular field."
Expert Witness assessment
Infrastructure project in Africa
"I would like to thank you for your proven commitment to provide us with a very high standard and technically valid offer. This guarantees your straight participation in the upcoming tenders that will be taking place as a result of other arbitral proceedings on the way."
Expert Witness assessments
Major global provider of utilities
“Amaël worked with me in the matter of an ICC Arbitration […]. The context of this dispute was challenging […]. Yet, Amaël was able to assist the tribunal by presenting two analyses: one relying upon a retrospective view, mostly based on the factual evidence disclosed by the client; and an alternative assessment relying on a prospective view, which he supported mainly with the evidence reported by the opposing party […]. This clever approach allowed the tribunal to confidently identify the spectrum in dispute and to focus on the elements which truly mattered. […] His deliverables were well presented and illustrated, which surely was appreciated by the arbitrator. Amaël was great to working with and I will not hesitate to hire Orizo Consult again in the future.”
Expert Witness assessment
Energy capital project in Africa
“I work with Amaël on a regular basis since 2019. His appointments related to various infrastructure disputes, including capital projects […]. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to review the work of many expert witnesses. Right from the beginning, I could tell Amaël stood out of the crowd. He is technically extremely knowledgeable on his field of delay analysis expertise, but [also on] highly technical engineering matters. He has this rare ability to dive into an ocean of documents and spot the detail which makes the difference. He then translates the complexities of his assessment into that plain language which clients and arbitrators value so much. […] I would be very happy to recommend Amaël for the undertaking of construction delay expert independent assessments, should this be under the context of a negotiation or a formal arbitration dispute.”
