FIDIC Claims Management · Saudi Arabia
FIDIC Claims Consultant in Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia's giga-project pipeline is generating claims at a scale the market has never seen, and contractors who cannot substantiate entitlement are leaving serious money on the table. CALIM prepares and defends FIDIC claims for contractors across the Kingdom from our office in Al Khobar.
How CALIM helps contractors in Saudi Arabia
- Prepare and defend FIDIC claims for extension of time, prolongation, and additional payment
- Draft and manage contractual notices under Clause 20 to protect entitlement before it is time-barred
- Build the cause-and-effect narrative, quantum, and contemporaneous record trail a claim needs to survive scrutiny
- Support Engineer determinations, DAAB references, amicable settlement, and arbitration preparation
Why fidic claims management in Saudi Arabia is different
NEOM, Qiddiya, the Red Sea, and Diriyah run on FIDIC-based conditions with Saudi-specific amendments, and public work also sits under the Government Tenders and Procurement Law. On projects of this scale and speed, notices and records fall behind fast. We install the claim discipline early, quantify prolongation and disruption, and prepare the case for SCCA arbitration or negotiated settlement.
Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 giga-projects - NEOM, Qiddiya, the Red Sea, Diriyah - have created the largest construction pipeline in the region, most of it on FIDIC-based conditions with Saudi-specific amendments. Public-sector work also sits under the Government Tenders and Procurement Law, so contractors need commercial administration that reads both the contract and the regulatory layer.
Where a dispute cannot be avoided, resolution in Saudi Arabia typically runs through the Saudi Center for Commercial Arbitration (SCCA) and the Government Tenders and Procurement Law. CALIM has an office in Al Khobar, close to the Eastern Province and the giga-project corridor.

Do you work on NEOM and other Vision 2030 giga-projects?
Yes. CALIM supports contractors and subcontractors on Saudi Arabia's giga-projects and wider Vision 2030 programme, which run on FIDIC-based conditions with Kingdom-specific amendments. We prepare extension-of-time, prolongation, and disruption claims and help contractors keep pace with the notice and record-keeping demands that the scale and speed of these projects create.
How are construction disputes resolved in Saudi Arabia?
Many Saudi contracts provide for arbitration at the Saudi Center for Commercial Arbitration (SCCA), often after the FIDIC dispute board and amicable-settlement steps, while public procurement sits under the Government Tenders and Procurement Law. We prepare the commercial claim so it is ready for whichever forum the contract specifies, working with your legal team on the dispute strategy.
