Wait, are you sure it's not litigation? That seems more typical.

Definitely adjudication! It's all about those deadlines.

I feel like litigation is too lengthy for construction conflicts, so it has to be either adjudication or arbitration.

I practiced a similar question, and I believe conciliation is more informal, so it can't be the answer.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about arbitration being used in construction too.

I think the answer might be adjudication since it often has strict timelines in construction disputes.

I'm leaning towards adjudication as well. The strict timeline and construction industry connection seem to point in that direction. I'll mark that as my answer for now, but I'll double-check my notes just to be sure.

Okay, I think the key here is that the question is asking about a conflict resolution style commonly used in the construction industry. That makes me think it's probably adjudication, since that's a common approach in that field.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure on this one. I know adjudication is a formal process, but I'm not sure if it has a strict timeline. I'll have to think this through carefully.
