In construction, time is never just time – it is money, entitlement, and dispute.
Delay-related disputes remain one of the most persistent and complex challenges in today’s construction industry, often determining the success or failure of major projects.
Under FIDIC Contracts, time-related clauses are not simply procedural requirements – they are powerful contractual mechanisms that shape Extension of Time entitlements, delay claims, and ultimately dispute resolution outcomes.

This session will take a practical deep dive into the real-world application of FIDIC provisions governing delays, notices, programme updates, mitigation obligations, concurrent delay, and claims substantiation. It will also explore how different delay analysis methodologies can be effectively applied to support robust and defensible contractual positions.
