The Problem

FIDIC-governed infrastructure projects operate under strict notice periods. A single missed deadline — 14 days for a claim notice, 28 days for delay notification — can extinguish an entitlement worth millions.

Sub-Clause 20.1 — The Critical Deadline

“If the Contractor considers himself to be entitled to any extension of the Time for Completion and/or any additional payment... he shall give notice to the Engineer accordingly... within 28 daysafter the event or circumstance giving rise to the claim.”

— FIDIC 1999, Sub-Clause 20.1

Missing this deadline = time-barred claim = forfeited entitlement.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is FIDIC Notice Monitor?

The FIDIC Notice Monitor is an AI-powered automation capability that monitors, tracks, and alerts on all FIDIC contractual notice obligations in real-time. It ensures no deadline is missed, no entitlement is forfeited, and no claim is time-barred.

Which FIDIC clauses are supported?

The system monitors Sub-Clause 20.1 (Contractor's Claim), 8.4 (Extension of Time), 4.12 (Unforeseeable Conditions), 13.1 (Variation), 8.3 (Programme), and 3.5 (Engineer Determination). Additional clauses can be configured based on contract requirements.

How does the alert system work?

The system operates on a 7/3/1 day alert schedule: alerts are triggered at 7 days, 3 days, and 1 day before each notice deadline. Escalation logic automatically increases urgency based on proximity to deadline.

What is the escalation matrix?

The system uses a 4-level escalation matrix: Level 1 (7 days) — Contracts Manager alert; Level 2 (3 days) — Claims Engineer notification; Level 3 (1 day) — Project Director escalation; Level 4 (Overdue) — Executive alert with compliance report.

Is it secure?

The FIDIC Notice Monitor processes notice data locally with no external transmission. All notice records are stored in a forensic-grade archive suitable for dispute resolution. The system requires authorized access with role-based permissions.

What is the time savings?

Manual notice tracking requires 20 hours per week of contracts manager time. The FIDIC Notice Monitor reduces this to approximately 5 hours per week — a 75% reduction. More importantly, it ensures 100% compliance, eliminating the risk of time-barred claims.

How is it deployed?

The FIDIC Notice Monitor is deployed on the MAHSR T-3 Track Package — INR 3,142 Crore FIDIC Yellow Book contract. It is currently in the productization phase with a demo environment under development.
