FIDIC, the International Federation of Consulting Engineers, has established a set of widely used standard forms of contracts for the construction industry, known as FIDIC contracts. These contracts provide a comprehensive framework for the management and execution of construction projects, outlining the rights and obligations of the various parties involved, including the employer, contractor, and engineer.
FIDIC contract management involves a structured approach to overseeing the contract's implementation, ensuring that all parties adhere to the agreed-upon terms and conditions. It encompasses aspects such as project documentation, dispute resolution mechanisms, risk allocation, and financial management.
Effective FIDIC contract management requires a thorough understanding of the contract provisions, proactive communication among stakeholders, and the ability to navigate potential challenges that may arise during the project lifecycle. Professionals involved in FIDIC contract management play a crucial role in ensuring the successful and equitable execution of construction projects globally.
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
• Select the most appropriate FIDIC contract form tailored to each project's requirements.
• Employ FIDIC's principles, mechanisms, and industry best practices in both contract and project management.
• Illustrate the employer's and contractor's responsibilities, obligations, and entitlements as outlined by FIDIC.
• Enumerate the diverse roles, duties, and responsibilities of the engineer in connection with FIDIC contracts.
• Use the designated payment, claims, and dispute resolution mechanisms specified within FIDIC contracts.
This course is designed for anyone responsible for writing or approving FIDIC contracts involving large-scale construction. It would be most beneficial for:
• Engineers
• Project Managers
• Quantity Surveyors
• Construction Managers
• Construction Operational Management
• Risk Assessors
This course uses a variety of adult learning styles to aid full understanding and comprehension. Participants will review various contract templates to understand the most efficient and effective contracts to cover all requirements.
They will participate in several practical exercises to review contracts and clauses and plan the best ways to perform projects based on the contract terms. They will also watch informative videos to understand what can happen should a contractual relationship break down and the most appropriate ways to handle this.
Day 5 of each course is reserved for a Q&A session, which may occur off-site. For 10-day courses, this also applies to day 10
