Hi,John

I have explained to all the planners seriously, my own opinion which is based on contracual support from the FIDIC and the other roles, regulations and methods have to be followed in the international business.

Where ever it was even if you ’re talking about a project in IRAQ!

The runing of any international business is not an easy job

for any organitation and it needs a ot of ivestigations, studies, planning,communications.................etc



GOOD LUCK

Ashraf,



I’m not sure if your post was meant to be serious, sarcastic or a wind-up, but whatever - it made me laugh more than the statement made by the engineer at the meeting.



We’re talking about a project in IRAQ! Get real.

Before having a prepared information on lack of productivity and also a dossier of photographs showing the obstructions in each trench as you did you should prepare and submit the following:.

*notified the client officially for the exixt of the said obestructions and request his instruction to solve the problem in specific date.

*Follow the subject with the client’representative periodically.

*write to the client aout the status of the works and the nigative impact of the exsisting obestructions on the planned works.

*Call for exceptional and action meetings with the client to solve the prblem.

*submit a weekly updated progress report showing the impact of the exsisting obestructions on the programme of works.

*submit your official notifiction of your intention to submit claim based on the condition of contract.

*submit the impacted programme with all details and other supporting documents.

*raise the case to the disput and claims resolution committee in the client level.

*raise the case to the arbitration level.

*raise the case to the court.

Be sure if, you have e right and defind for it properly based on the contract conditions and other docments,no body can ignor your right or reject your claim.

John,



Sorry, but I couldn’t help laughing out loud when I read the excuse for the claim rejection. You wrote it beautifully. The timing and wording was perfect.

PM wrote over on original Clients letter exactly what he thought of him.

This was obviously discovered in the file during the legal search procedure - professional reputation in tatters, claim rejected - mail & filing procedures changed.
