FIDIC

In International Contract Law, the standardized contracts developed and issued by the F?d?ration Internationale des Ingeni?urs Conseils (FIDIC) for large international construction projects have significantly grown in importance. These contracts have their origin in common law systems and are increasingly recommended or required in European tenders or privately financed construction projects, in particular in Eastern Europe.

Pietschmann Attorneys and Pietschmann Consulting Engineers Ltd. have advised international bidding consortiums in tender procedures and in the realization of infrastructural and other construction projects of European-wide importance. Moreover, Attorney at law Rainer Pietschmann and Dr.-Ing. Peter Pietschmann have presented and discussed the specific operational and legal differences compared to VOB/B construction contracts in several lectures and presentations.
