Jordan is one of the countries that is experiencing fast architectural development in various fields. Under the Jordanian Construction Contractors Law, a contractor is defined as "any natural or legal person engaged in construction contracting, licensed and registered in accordance with the provisions of this law”. In 2010, the Ministry of Public Works and Housing in Jordan issued the FIDIC contract which provides a standard and unified format for construction projects. It is observed that although the Jordan FIDIC contract is the main reference for construction contracts, it does not provide specific terms on the obligations of contractors and allows the contracts to be executed as long as the contracts do not violate the standards required under the regulations issued by the Ministry of Public Works and Housing.

The data from the primary sources consists of legal statutes and case law whereas the data from the secondary sources include law books, journals, newspapers’ articles and reports, conference proceedings and other relevant legal documents. All of the above data were gathered through library research from legal databases, websites and written materials. The research found numerous inconsistencies with regards to the contractors’ obligations under the Jordanian Civil Law, Jordan Contractors Association Law and the Jordanian FIDIC contract. The research also observed that there is no agency which has the authority to coordinate and resolve the discrepancies between these laws. There is a need for the formation of a special legal committee from the Jordanian Contractors Association that possesses technical and legal skills in the field of construction. This committee should comprise legal experts from all branches of law related to the field of contracts, construction and civil law. It is also proposed that this special committee be turned into a permanent committee under the Ministry of Public Works and Housing to address the imbalances in the contractors’ obligations under the Jordanian Civil Law, Jordanian Contractors Association Law and Jordanian FIDIC contract. It is also recommended for the Jordan FIDIC contract be amended in accordance with the developments of the International FIDIC Contract. Dissertations, Academic Thesis |
