Case management
Each dispute is assinged to one of the four SCC divisions, with a legal counsel and a case administrator.
All communication in disputes administered at the SCC takes place the SCC Platform, a secure and user-friendly cloud-based platform.
A dispute registered at the SCC is assigned its own cyber-secure workspace, a so-called case site, on the SCC Platform. Here, parties, party representatives, arbitrators, and SCC legal counsels and SCC administrators can access all material relating to the case after login.
The SCC Platform allows parties, representatives, and arbitrators to:
- communicate safely and effectively
- upload, share and print case materials, such as procedural decisions, pleadings and evidence, on an ongoing basis.
The SCC Platform includes:
- a search function
- a calendar for relevant dates and deadlines
- the ability to set reminders
- a notice board which the arbitration tribunal can use to provide practical information to the parties
- archiving facilities where the procedural material can be stored once the arbitration has been concluded.
Communication on the platform is fast and available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This makes communication easy, efficient, and cyber-secure.
