From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Jump to: navigation, search

The acronym FIDIC stands for Fédération Internationale Des Ingénieurs-Conseils, French for
the International Federation of Consulting Engineers. The fact that the organisation has a French
title bears testimony to its foundation in 1913 by three countries each wholly or partly
francophone. The founding member countries of the FIDIC were Belgium, France and
Switzerland.

Located at the World Trade Center in Geneva, Switzerland, FIDIC aims to represent globally the
consulting engineering industry by promoting the business interests of firms supplying
technology-based intellectual services for the built and natural environment. Run mostly by
volunteers, FIDIC is well known in the consulting engineering industry for its work in defining
Conditions of Contract for the Construction Industry worldwide.

Companies and organizations belonging to FIDIC national member associations are encouraged
to announce themselves as FIDIC members and use the FIDIC logo. The use of the logo is
