Online-briefing, February 3, 2026: The application of BIM under FIDIC contracts

FIDIC contracts are widely used in international construction law. Similarly, there is a steady increase in the extent of BIM being used in construction projects. But what happens when FIDIC and BIM meet?

The FIDIC paradigms do not contain specific provisions on BIM. Instead, it is up to the involved parties to regulate this matter as part of the contract.

For this online-briefing, attorney-at-law and PhD in BIM/digital construction Nicolaus Falk-Scheibel, will highlight the key legal aspects and challenges associated with the application of BIM under FIDIC contracts.

The briefing will cover topics such as:

• What is BIM?
• How can it be regulated in the agreement?
• Pitfalls and points of attention
• Important considerations to be made for the FIDIC paradigms

The online-briefing will take place from  11.30 am to 12.00 pm.
