The SCC Platform and the Ad Hoc Platform are secure digital platforms for communication and file sharing between the parties and the tribunal in an arbitration.
The SCC Platform is used in all SCC cases since 2019, and the Ad Hoc Platform is offered to all ad hoc cases upon request. The SCC Platform Guidelines and the Ad Hoc Platform Guidelines instruct participants in arbitrations on the use of the platforms and address some of the questions that may arise along the way.
The newly-developed SCC Express guidelines are intended to provide information on procedure and use of the Rules for Express Dispute Assessment. The guidelines are not intended, and should not be understood, as arbitration rules. Further information and “how-to” guides are available on the respective platforms.
You can also reach out to the SCC secretariat with any questions you may have.

The Guidelines contain information about
- Calculation of fees to the arbitrators.
- Compensation for expenses.
- Daily allowance.
