MACE: Peter van der TOCT tl FIDIC FIDIC is the French acronym for the International Federation of Consulting Engineors IDIC was founded in 1913 by three national associations of consulting engineers within Europe. The objectives of forming the federation were to promote in common the professional interests of the member associations and to disseminate information of interest to members of its component national associations ‘oday FIDIC membership numbers more than 60 countries from ail parts of the globe and the federation represents most of the private practice consulting engineers in the world IDIC arranges seminars, conferences and other events in the furtheranoe of its goals: maintenance of high ethical and professional standards; exchange of Views and information; discussion of problems of mutual concern among member associations and representatives of the international financial institutions; and development of the consuiting engineering industry in developing countries. IDIC publications include proceedings of various conferences and seminars, information for consulting engineers, project owners and international development agencies, standard pre-qualification forms, contract documents and client/consultant agreements.

Under the usual arrangements. {or this type of contract, the Contractor constructs the works in accordance with a design provided by the Employer. However, the works may include some elements of Contractor-designed civil, mechanical, electrical and/or construction works, Conditions of Contract for Plant and Design-Build, which are recommended for the provision of electrical and/or mechanical plant, and for the design and execution of building or engineering works. Under the usual arrangements for this type of contract, the Contractor designs and provides, in accordance with the Employer's requirements, plant and/or other works; which may include any combination of civil, mechanical, electrical and/or construction works Congitions of Contract for EPC/Turnkey Projects, which may be suitable for the provision on a turnkey basis of a process or ower piant, of a factory or similar facilty, or of an infrastructure project or other type of development, where () a higher degree of certainty of final price and time is required, and (i) the Contractor takes total responsibilty for the design and execution of the project, with litle involvement of the Employer. Under the usual arrangements for tumnkey projects, the Contractor carries out all the Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC), providing @ fully-equipped facity, ready for operation (atthe "turn of the key’ ‘Short Form of Contract, which is recommended for building or engineering works of relatively small capital value. Depending on the type of work and the circumstances, this form may also be suitable for contracts of greater value, particularly for relatively simple or repettive work or work of short duration. Under the usual arrangements for this type of contract, the Contractor constructs the works in accordance with a design provided by the Employer or by his representative (i any), but this form may also be suitable for a contract which includes, or wholy comprises, Contractor-designed civil, mechanical, electrical and/or construction works. The forms ate recommended for general use where tenders are invited on an international basis. Modifications may be required in some jurisdictions, particularly i the Conditions are to be used on domestic contracts. FIDIC considers the official and authentic texts to be the versions in the English language. In the preparation of these Conditions of Contract for Construction, it was recognised that, while there are many sub-clauses which will be generally applicable, there are ‘some sub-clauses which must necessarily vary to take account of the circumstances Bek Ba BRE MIARES (FDIC THR) FT 199 FWMT ARMS AREAS ah: CHILO EHD, BEAT OMERKARTAM LT HRRRIAAD, RAS MAH RA, HAMWEAMEARNRTRGTARL, PRIETO SHR AMT HLA, MR EAR) HRA RED, (EPREPRH MLE, RERT ENS DURES ERPRARIAH RT THT.

The sub-clauses which were considered to be applicable to many (but not all) contracts have been included in the General Conditions, in order to facilitate their incorporation into each contract. The General Conditions and the Particular Conditions will together comprise the Conditions of Contract governing the rights and obligations of the parties. It will be necessary to prepare the Particular Conditions for each individual contract, and to take account of those sub-clauses in the General Conditions which mention the Particular Conditions. For this publication, the General Conditions were prepared on the following basis: (interim and final payments will be determined by measurement, applying the rates and prices in a Bill of Quantities; (i) if the wording in the General Conditions necessitates further data, then (unless. tis 80 descriptive that it would have to be detailed in the Specification) the sub- clause makes reference to this data being contained in the Appendix to Tender, the data either being prescribed by the Employer or being inserted by the ‘Tenderer; (i) where a sub-clause in the General Conditions deals with a matter on which iferent contract terms are likely to be applicable for different contracts, the principles applied in writing the sub-clause were: (@) users would find it more convenient if any provisions which they did not wish to apply could simply be deleted or not invoked, than if aditional text had to be written (in the Particular Conditions) because the General Conditions did not cover their requirements; or (©) in other cases, where the application of (a) was thought to be inappropriate, the sub-clause contains the provisions which were considered applicable to most contracts. For example, Sub-Ciause 14.2 [Advance Payment] is included for convenience, not because of any FIDIC policy in respect of advance payments. This Sub-Clause becomes inapplicable (even itis not deleted) if itis disregarded by not specifying the amount of the advance. It should therefore be noted that some of the provisions Contained in the General Conaltions may not be appropriate for an apparently-typical contract. Further information on these aspects, example wording for other arrangements, and, ‘other explanatory material and example wording to assist in the preparation of the Particular Conditions and the other tender documents, are included within this Publication as Guidance for the Preparation of the Particular Conditions. Before incorporating any example wording, it must be checked to ensure that it is wholly suitable for the particular circumstances; f not, it must be amended, Where example wording is amended, and in all cases where other amendments or ditions are made, care must be taken to ensure that no ambiguity is created, either with the General Conditions or between the clauses in the Particular Conditions. tis essential that all these dratting tasks, and the entire preparation of the tender SHCCHAMAAAE, UMASS R.

This Dispute ‘Adjudication Agreement provides text for the agreernent between the Employer, the Contractor and the person appointed to act either as sole adjudicator or as a member of a three-person dispute adjudication board; and incorporates (by reference) the terms in the Appendix to the General Conditions. FIDIC intends to publish a guide to the use of its Conditions of Contract for Construction, for Plant and Design-Build, and for EPC/Tumkey Projects. Another relevant FIDIC publication is “Tendering Procedure", which presents a systematic approach to the selection of tenderers and the obtaining and evaluation of tenders.
