⚖ Compliance notes
- Per FIDIC Sub-clause 5.2, designer's documents (GFC) must be issued per agreed schedule.
- Delay in GFC issuance attributable to consultant / client = extension of time for contractor (Sub-clause 8.4).
- Critical path GFC delay = project delay; closely tracked + escalated.
- Construction without GFC = unauthorized work; rework risk.
