Contract administration and, in particular, drafting of contractual notifications for the FIDIC forms of Contract are critical functions on all projects. There are several key contractual and procedural issues to be aware of while preparing said notifications. Some Sub-Clauses require more than one notification while others oblige the Contractor to perform certain key actions in order to ensure that their contractual entitlements are not prejudiced in any manner.

 

This ebook contains detailed sample letters for all contractual notifications related to the FIDIC Red Book (1999 edition). These letters provide step by step instructions on how to draft contractually/legally compliant notifications.

 

This ebook also provides comprehensive instructions on how to ensure that the Contractor’s contractual entitlements are protected. For example, if there is a delay/disruption event, and a notice of claim has to be submitted, this ebook provides information about:

 

(1) Critical contractual issues to be cognisant of and actions that should be taken prior to submitting the notice or contractual letter,

(2) The date by when the notice should be issued,

(3) The relevant contractual clauses that should be referred to and, finally,

(4) A detailed sample/model letter which could be used as a template to create the pertinent contractual notification.

 

This ebook is an excellent guide for professionals who are not familiar with preparing contractual letters.

For experienced professionals, this ebook is a perfect aide-mémoire which would assist in ensuring that errors are not made while drafting critical contractual notifications.

To conclude, this ebook makes it simpler for construction professionals to fulfil their contract administration duties with due diligence.
