Event organised by ICE

Time

This event has now ended

Overview

This event aims to boost the networking between members of the Institution of Civil Engineers, students and graduate members in the MENA region. Preserving the tradition of the Institution of Civil Engineers, which was founded by a group of young engineers at a London coffee shop in the year 1818 and adhering strictly to the UAE government’s Covid 19 rules and regulations, this talk is intended to be held virtually. Since the beginning of the pandemic, it was not possible to hold networking events and the concept of a virtual meeting enables members to come together to network, at their own space with a cup of coffee socializing with other engineers.

Topic: NEC - The Risk Register/ Early Warning Register and Risk Allocation and Management
By participating to this webinar, you will understand the basics of NEC contracts and some tips for making it work. This is one process in NEC that you need to get working well on your contract.

MS Teams Link will be forwarded to all the registered attendees on Wednesday morning prior to the event.

For any specific enquiries regarding ICE membership requirements and processes please contact our ICE Middle East Membership Officer Aurelia Khisaf at [email protected]

Richard Patterson

Richard Patterson, NEC and procurement specialist at Mott MacDonald, is a chartered civil engineer and ICE Fellow who has been with the firm for 35-plus years.

He was a member of the drafting team for NEC4; the ICE’s working group on procurement, contracts and carbon/net zero; and the team that developed the recently released NEC secondary option, X29. This enables clients to include contractual targets incentivising contractors to provide lower-carbon solutions.

Keen for NEC to be used more widely, Patterson has trained people in its application in countries ranging from Australia and Ethiopia to Peru and the US.

He has contributed to two NEC books and served on the editorial advisory panel of the ICE’s Management, Procurement and Law journal. He is also a frequent contributor to the NEC’s website and newsletter.
