Innovative Project Management with FIDIC Contracts

“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, certified 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 Engineers 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.”

“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.”
