Small Case Commercial Mediation Scheme (SCCMS)
About the SCCMS
Where claims are small, expensive and prolonged
litigation can exhaust time and resources. Mediation may be
the solution to take control of the outcome of these
disputes in a timely and cost-efficient manner.
The SCCMS provides mediation services to help parties settle
commercial disputes where the quantum of claim is S$30,000
or less. Typically, cases include those involving tenancy,
car repairs, unpaid salaries and renovation matters.
Benefits of the SCCMS

litigation

outcome.

process that requires both parties to work together.
