The New York Standard Compromise Order (NY SCO) is a set of rules and regulations designed to facilitate the resolution of disputes that arise from construction projects in New York State. This order is issued by the New York State Department of Labor and applies to contractors, subcontractors, and other parties involved in construction projects. The NY SCO sets out the terms and conditions for dispute resolution and the parties’ rights and responsibilities in the event of a dispute. The NY SCO divides disputes into two distinct categories: those related to the completion of the work and those related to the payment of the work. For disputes related to completion of the work, the NY SCO requires that the parties attempt to resolve the dispute before filing a claim in court. For disputes related to payment of the work, the NY SCO establishes procedures for dispute resolution, including mediation and arbitration. The NY SCO also establishes the Standard Compromise Order form, which parties are required to use when filing a dispute resolution claim. This form sets out the parties’ rights and responsibilities and includes provisions for dispute resolution, including mediation and arbitration. Additionally, the NY SCO provides guidelines for the arbitration process, including rules regarding the selection of arbitrators, the number and length of hearings, and the preparation of documents and evidence. The different types of New York Standard Compromise Order include the Standard Compromise Order form, the Standard Compromise Order of Payment form, and the Standard Compromise Order of Performance form.
