The FIDIC organisation introduced forms of construction contract in 1957 and operates worldwide in over 100 countries as the main form of contract. These contracts provide an industry standard for projects and conditions within construction. Management of risk is a key factor in ensuring projects run efficiently from start to finish, and following specific contracts is a great way to do so.
