Our staff member, Mr Teklić, successfully passed the assessment to become a FIDIC Dispute Adjudicator as part of the one-year German FIDIC seminar in February 2010. Since then, he has worked on various international street-building projects abroad in Croatia, Bosnia and Macedonia as project manager and contract manager, which have enabled him to further build upon his FIDIC expertise over these 6 years that he has been deployed as a FIDIC engineer by KREBS+KIEFER on a range of large-scale projects.

FIDIC contracts involve both the FIDIC engineer as a central dispute resolution/mediation instrument as well as “DAB procedures” (Dispute Adjudication Board), which represent a form of arbitration and aim to promptly resolve disputes during the term of the project.
