Brief Summary of Topic:
The International Federation of Consulting Engineers (FIDIC) contract has long been the contract of choice for use on international construction and engineering projects. The FIDIC produced a core ‘rainbow suite’ of four contracts in 1999:
¨ the Red Book (building and engineering works);
¨ the Yellow Book (plant and design build);
¨ the Silver Book (engineering, procurement and construction and turnkey projects); and
¨ the Green Book (short form contract).
In December 2017 the FIDIC Contracts Committee unveiled the much-anticipated new suite of rainbow contracts, with the publication of amended Red, Yellow and Silver Books. The last update to these contracts was 18 years ago and the revisions to these contracts have been the subject of significant discussion and debate in the construction industry.
This CPD discussion would include the key differences of FIDIC 1999 Red book and the FIDIC 2017 Red book. Furthermore, the impact of those changes to the Contract Administrators by adopting FIDIC 2017 suites would be discussed.
