What You Will Learn

1. Introduction to the FIDIC Red Book

Start with a thorough grounding in the FIDIC Red Book, understanding its purpose, global significance, and why it is the contract of choice for international construction projects. Learn how the Red Book sets out the rights, obligations, and risk allocations between employers and contractors.

Example: When managing a cross-border infrastructure project, you’ll know which FIDIC clauses govern payment terms, variations, and extensions of time, ensuring clarity and compliance from the outset.

2. General Conditions of Contract

Delve into the core General Conditions, which form the backbone of the FIDIC Red Book. These conditions define the legal framework for project execution, including roles, responsibilities, timelines, and procedures for contract administration.

Example: Understand how the General Conditions address issues like unforeseen ground conditions or delays due to force majeure, enabling you to respond effectively to project challenges.

3. Preparation of Particular Conditions

Every project has unique requirements. Learn how to adapt the FIDIC Red Book by preparing Particular Conditions that tailor the contract to specific project needs, local laws, or client preferences.

Example: Drafting Particular Conditions to address local labor regulations or environmental standards for a highway project in a new jurisdiction.

4. Contract Management

Master the day-to-day administration of FIDIC contracts. This includes managing communications, tracking progress, processing payments, handling variations, and ensuring compliance with all contract provisions.

Example: Implementing a systematic approach to issuing instructions, approving work, and certifying payments to minimize disputes and keep the project on track.

5. Claims and Dispute Resolution

Gain in-depth expertise in handling claims and resolving disputes under the FIDIC framework. Learn the procedures for submitting claims, maintaining records, and engaging in dispute adjudication or avoidance.

Example: When a contractor encounters unexpected site conditions, you’ll know how to document the claim, submit it within contractual timelines, and navigate the dispute adjudication process if needed.

6. Practical Applications and Case Studies

Apply your learning to real-world scenarios and case studies. Assess how FIDIC principles are used in major infrastructure, building, and industrial projects worldwide to ensure timely completion, budget adherence, and quality outcomes.

Example: Analyzing a case where the use of FIDIC Red Book clauses helped resolve a payment dispute and avoid costly litigation on a large bridge project.
