Abstract:
This paper describes a centralised mediation database system that seeks to publicise and promote the use of mediation in construction. The proposed system includes an online mediation cases library for practicing mediators and mediator trainees. To augment the development concepts, an online survey with practicing mediators was performed. The respondents also commented on the usefulness of information to be included in the case library. In addition, the respondents' opinions on the potential benefits and barriers to implementation of the system were also solicited. This paper provides a summary of the online survey. In general the idea of a centralised mediation database system is to be supported.
