Overview

This book provides comprehensive guidance for the implementation of the legal requirements of FIDIC contracts with a detailed application of modern project management principles. It demonstrates that the FIDIC suites for works and services contain many tools for good project management, which can complement the innovation needed today to guide sustainable development. The author’s experience in construction management, construction law, and the application of FIDIC contracts as a FIDIC engineer, a procurement/claims consultant, and a FIDIC accredited/certified adjudicator and trainer underpins this unique and much-needed book linking FIDIC contract management with project management practices and concepts. It is structured around project management knowledge areas, and details not only the FIDIC works contracts (Red/Yellow/Silver 2017 Reprint 2022, Emerald 2019, Gold 2008, and Green Book 2021) but also the project management requirements of the contract between the Employer and Engineer (White Book 2017) and the FIDIC supply-chain contracts, and explains how these all interface in project governance. Linking the project management knowledge areas from the PMBOK® and its Construction Extension with the FIDIC Body of Knowledge (FBOK), the book provides recommendations for integration of best practice and innovations. It illustrates these processes with 54 flowcharts and 16 case studies, as well as a railway scenario demonstrating the application of the book’s recommended procedures. This will be an invaluable source of practical guidance for employers, contractors, and engineers responsible for procuring and managing construction projects. It provides useful insight for technical, legal, and financial experts on the management of processes, contracts, and digital tools, with recommendations on how to tailor and use the FIDIC contracts for project success.

Reviews

"“Applying contract management tools directly from the agreed contract is a necessary but also demanding exercise and requires detailed knowledge of both the contract and the effectiveness of the tools being considered. This book is well written for contract management practitioners of all levels. Great value for the international construction world.” Robert Aloys Werth, FCL adjudicator and publicly appointed FIDIC Expert ""Innovative Project Management with FIDIC Contracts is a must-have book for those acting as project managers, contract managers, contract administrators or FIDIC Engineer on projects using one of the FIDIC suite of contracts. It is a very practical guide with flowcharts explaining processes under the FIDIC forms such as disputes progressing to the Dispute Board for their decision. It breaks the project lifecycle down into manageable chunks that the reader can read and progress through whilst being assisted with project delivery and issues that arise on all projects such as dealing with procurement at the start and claims during the delivery phase. It’s a really practical book that I would encourage everyone to own."" Sean Gibbs BSc LLB (Hons) PG Dip Arb LLM FICE FCIOB FRICS FCIARB, CEO Hanscomb Intercontinental Ltd “Adriana’s wealth of practical project management experience and in-depth knowledge of the FIDIC forms, make this book a valuable addition to the FIDIC library. She is absolutely correct to remind us that the FIDIC contract contains many tools for good project management which can complement the innovation needed today to guide sustainable development.” Jeremy Glover, Partner, Fenwick Elliott LLP"
