BBBF discusses new Fidic construction contract forms

ABU DHABI, June 29, 2018

Bahrain British Business Forum (BBBF) said its special interest group for legal professionals last night hosted a panel discussion in collaboration with Newton Legal Group to highlight the recent changes to the most widely used construction industry standard Fidic contract forms and their effect on the industry.

Sumana Abdulkarim, the senior associate at Newton Legal Group, moderated the discussion held at the Capital Club Bahrain.

The expert panel of leading legal and engineering practitioners were Paula Boast (Partner at Charles Russell Speechlys), Joanne Taqi (Partner at Norton Rose Fulbright), and Ian Lunt-Bell (Principal Engineer at Aecom), said a statement from BBBF.

Leading experts discussed Fidic’s new standard forms of contracts and the panel clarified the common themes to the changes in the different standard forms and their implications, it added.

The BBBF, which was established in 1995, today boasts over 470 members. A widely recognized organisation in Bahrain and the UK as a leading impartial business sector group, it aims to promote bilateral trade and investment in a non-discriminatory, non-political and non-profit making manner.
