The notice to claim is not acceptable for the following reasons;
1. IC is behind schedule in almost every activity, 
2. Procurements are behind schedule
3. IC has failed to efficiently coordinate for interfaces
4. IC is delaying other contractors in the area especially at the south culvert, due to delayed geotechncial investigations and lack of interest, resources and interfacing capabilites with others according to contract conditions.
5. Only less than 1 kilometer of precast wall has been erected out of a total of approximately 15 kilometers to be done and more than 97% of the perimetr is open for works/ construction.
6. IC is not employing alternate means and methods and creating claims where SAPMT has alredy suggested viable alternatives to be considered.
7. refer to para 3.1.6	- CONTRACTOR shall confirm the location of all utilities and structures. Work includes CONTRACTOR’s investigation of any missing information required to complete the work and perform necessary coordination to obtain such information.
8. refer to para 4.2.4	- Demolition work shall be carefully executed by the CONTRACTOR in order not to damage any existing underground utilities or other Facilities which are not part of this Project.
9. Except as may be otherwise provided in Schedule "B", CONTRACTOR shall protect from damage all existing structures, improvements or utilities at or near the WORK Site, and shall repair and restore any damage thereto resulting from CONTRACTOR's failure to exercise reasonable care in protecting the same during CONTRACTOR's performance of the WORK.  If CONTRACTOR fails or refuses to promptly repair any such damage, SAUDI ARAMCO may perform such repairs, or have them performed by others.
10. At the moment it is obvious from daily reports, monthly reports, tracking sheets and invoices that IC has just enough resources to carry out minimal works on the precast wall and KAM road and other works like culverts, patrol roads, IDAS etc can not be started.
