Practical FIDIC Correspondence - Employer to Consultant Letters under the FIDIC Red Book (1999) is a specialized reference guide created to support construction project teams in managing contract-related correspondence effectively and in alignment with FIDIC standards.
With over two decades of experience in construction leadership and contract administration-and having successfully delivered more than 110 projects totaling over 1.22 billion USD (One billion, two hundred twenty-six million, one hundred fifty-eight thousand, and forty US dollars)-I have repeatedly observed a key challenge in the industry: many Employers face difficulty in responding clearly and contractually to correspondence issued by Consultants. This recurring issue prompted the development of this book.
In response, I compiled a practical and comprehensive collection of scenario-based letter templates, each grounded in realistic project situations and supported by specific contractual provisions under the FIDIC Red Book (1999).
This volume focuses specifically on the Employer-to-Consultant correspondence pathway, offering:
- A detailed clause-by-clause interpretation of the FIDIC Red Book (1999),
- Practical on-site scenarios mapped to each clause and sub-clause,
- Professionally structured letters featuring:
- A concise situation explanation,
- The relevant contractual basis,
- A formal letter template,
- Clear, assertive language emphasizing timely action, contractual compliance, and escalation procedures.
Whether you are a site engineer, contract administrator, or project manager, this book is intended to serve as a practical tool to help you:
- Enhance contractual communication,
- Address risks and enforce compliance,
- Respond confidently to site challenges and disputes,
- Protect the Employer's rights with professionalism and precision.
This publication represents the second volume in a broader series that aims to cover other major FIDIC contract forms and essential aspects of construction contract management. The series is designed to provide professionals with structured, scenario-driven guidance across all key stakeholder roles within FIDIC-based projects.
