Under the FIDIC Silver Book 1999 (Conditions of Contract for EPC/Turnkey Projects), the Employer must specify clearly in the Employer’s Requirements which Contractor’s Documents are to be submitted. Sub-Clause 5.2 states that the Contractor must submit all documents listed in the Employer’s Requirements, ensuring clarity and enabling the Employer to control the documentation process.
Option D is correct because it highlights the need for Employer’s Requirements to define the scope and content of the Contractor’s Documents.
Option A is incorrect; although operation and maintenance manuals are generally required, they are part of the specified Contractor’s Documents, not automatically required without Employer’s direction.
Option B is incorrect as the Contractor’s duty to supply documents is limited to those specified.
Option C is incorrect because documentation obligations are ongoing and not just at completion.
