Another option that I've sometimes employed at arbitration hearings is this: both parties agree to ask the arbitrator to delay releasing his or her award for a certain period of time while the parties try to work out a resolution amongst themselves (sometimes informed now by their perceptions of how the evidence went in at the hearing etc.) Can be quite effective.
