13 Bar-registered firms across 2 towns handle this in Malaysia. Construction adjudication resolves payment disputes under the Construction Industry Payment and Adjudication Act 2012 (CIPAA) — a "pay now, argue later" statutory process that produces a binding interim decision, administered by the Asian International Arbitration Centre (AIAC). Firms below across Malaysia handle CIPAA claims.
CIPAA applies to written construction contracts carried out in Malaysia, including government contracts — but not to an individual's own home construction of under four storeys. Either the paying or non-paying party can start adjudication once a payment dispute arises.
The process is designed to produce a binding decision within roughly 106 working days of the Notice of Adjudication — far faster than litigation or arbitration, though it delivers only an interim, not a final, decision.
No — it gives 'temporary finality' to keep cash flowing, but either party can still refer the underlying dispute to arbitration or the courts for a final determination. CIPAA also voids 'pay-when-paid' clauses that delay payment down the contractual chain.
