Adele Wojtowicz, PQS, FICCP, CET, has an established career in the construction industry, with expertise in contracts, risk analysis, disputes mitigation, and claims preparation and defense on major national and international projects in various sectors.

After graduating with Honours in Civil Engineering from a technical college, Adele got her start with a consulting engineering firm in northern Ontario as a contract administrator, and was active in the field on several large infrastructure projects.

She gained further field experience working for a major Canadian general contractor as project coordinator, following which she put her field experience in contracts and project management to use as a claims analyst and consultant in Montreal.  There she honed the craft of contract review and development of entitlement, analyses of construction project schedules, delays, earned value and labour productivity, preparation of claims and expert reports in defense of claims.

Adele joined the design-build joint venture firm that developed and built Highway 407 ETR in Toronto, responsible for contractual issues and claims under the prime contract with the provincial government. She has since worked as in-house project advisor and as a construction claims expert on major national and international construction projects (some of which are featured on the Projects page).
