Engineering Risks
contractors all risks (car) Our CAR/EAR insurance covers all types of building and civil engineering construction From the inception of the works, construction sites face an array of perils that could cost the contractor and all those involved both time and money if they do not have the best resources in place. It is therefore important that clients obtain the correct cover for their specific projects in order to ensure that they do not suffer any unnecessary loss following an incident. Consort s CAR insurance covers all types of building and civil engineering construction including, amongst others, residential housing (both individual homes and large estates), commercial development (such as office blocks, warehouses and shopping centers) and civil infrastructure (such as roads, dams, water reticulation and pipelines), indemnifying the insured against the hazards that may threaten these works whilst under construction. The EAR insurance provides cover in respect of transit and erection followed by commissioning of all types of machinery/equipment.

machinery breakdown (mb) Machinery Breakdown insurance caters for sudden and unforeseen electrical or mechanical breakdown. Indemnity operates on completion of successful commissioning of the machinery at the premises. It is a requirement of this insurance that the machinery is kept in a sound working order as the indemnity does not cater for maintenance costs incurred.
business interruption (bi) deterioration of stock (dos) Consort provides cover for the Loss of Gross Profit, Loss of Revenue and/or Increased Cost in Working. Following Machinery Breakdown, many companies are open to what could be their largest threat-the loss of revenue due to ceased production. This could ultimately end in disaster should they not have the correct protection in place. The BI/ Loss of Profits insurance provides cover for the Loss of Gross Profit, Loss of Revenue and / or Increased Cost in Working arising out of an indemnifiable loss or damage sustained to Machinery as insured under the Machinery Breakdown Policy. Cover should not pertain to all Plant and Machinery but only to key items considered to be essential to the continuation of the business operations Indemnity follows a loss under the MB Policy already in force. As important to a business as their processes, is their ability to deliver quality stock. Should a business face the threat of their stock or produce being destroyed due to Machinery Breakdown, this product also offers cover to ensure clients do not suffer financially.
