    About this course

    What you will learn

    Most claims are lost through missed notices and weak records, not weak arguments. Contract administration is a daily discipline, not a task for the end of the project.

    This course explains the main clauses and procedures of FIDIC and PEC standard forms in practical terms, with notice templates, record-keeping habits and price escalation calculations.

    Who this course is for

    • Contract managers
    • Quantity surveyors
    • Resident engineers
    • Project managers
    • Contractor commercial teams
