N2  - In  general,  construction  claim  happen  on  various  reasons.  It  is  required  to  understand  the   dynamic   nature   between   construction   claim   and   opportunist   tender.   Therefore,   negotiation  is  a  significant  stage  in  construction  claim  management  process.  Unluckily,  most  construction  claim  negotiations  are  conducted  inefficiently  due  to  various  reasons.  The   recent   development   of   multi-agent   systems   supplies   an   innovative   method   of   facilitating various negotiations. Besides, standard forms of contract supply for extensions of time (EOT) due to excusable delays, and EOT claims are frequent in many construction projects.  The  contractor  and  the  supervising  engineer  commonly  spend  important  time  proving  and  estimating  such  claims.  However,  a  variety  of  different  techniques  has  been  employed for such evaluations.  Only a small number of contractors fail to utilize some form of a scheduling device to determine  the  sequence  of  construction  activities  and  events.  A  correctly  though  out  schedule  permits  a  contractor  and  owner  to  correctly  coordinate  the  work  with  resources  that are required to finish the project on time. Therefore, the cost of scheduling software is reducing  and  at  the  same  time  the  level  of  complexity  of  the  completed  schedule  is  increasing. However, the correct usage of such software demands a basic understanding of construction scheduling concepts.  The  idea  of  delay  and  disruption  within  projects  is  well-known  and  is  frequently  the  subject of litigation claims. However, the term is not clearly explained, and it is difficult to justify such claims within a legal process. This paper shows a well-developed method that is a reasonable, translucent, auditable and sustainable means of presenting such a claim
