This guide will help the contractors staff overcome some of the difficulties encountered on a typical international contract using FIDIC forms. The majority of FIDIC-based contracts use the Red Book (Conditions of Contract for Construction), so this book concentrates on the use of those particular forms. Supplementary comments are included in Appendix C for the Yellow Book (Plant s Representative who carries the overall responsibility for all the Contractors on-site activities. In order to provide guidance to the Contractors Representativeand his staff, this book is divided into five sections: A summarized generalreview of the Red Book from the Contractors perspective. A review of the activities and duties of the Contractors Representative in the same clause sequencing as they appear in the Red Book. A summary of these activities and duties but arranged in order of their likely time sequence on site. This has the addedintention of providing the Contractors Representative with a means of ensuring that documents are not only properly provided to the Employer and Engineer, but most importantly that they are provided within the time limits specified in the Contract. A selection of model letters is provided which make reference to the various clauses of the contract requiring the Contractor to make submissions to the Employer or Engineer. Various appendices. The guide is not intended to be a review of the legal aspects of FIDIC- based contracts; legal adviceshould be obtained as and when necessary, particularly if the Contractor has little or no knowledge of the local law. Armed on site with a copy of The Contractor and the FIDIC Contract, the Contractors Representative will be more able to avoid contractual problems rather than spend considerable time and energyresolving those problems once they have arisen.
