The company provides comprehensive scheduling and claims resolution services to ensure building projects run smoothly, on time and to budget. The team of experts at FC International work on infrastructural, industrial and commercial projects across private and public sectors. Justin Storm, Commercial Risk Manager, Naylor Love says: “I have been working with Fouad El Chikhani and his team for over two years. My colleagues at Naylor Love enjoyed a successful, long-term, collaborative relationship with FC International before I joined the company. Naylor Love is a nationwide Tier One building contractor and I have sought the advice of FC International on several projects which have required expert extension of time claim advice and adjudication consultancy. I have found that the team at FC International has an in-depth knowledge and excellent understanding of the principles of assessing and analysing project delays and providing sound guidance on extension of time claims. As they represent both clients and contractors, they have the expertise to seamlessly articulate the merits of each claims from either party’s position. They have proved easy to deal with and extremely approachable, Fouad always provides realistic and workable advice on what the issues are in layman’s terms, and how one should best address the issue to enhance the potential for a positive outcome. I am incredibly impressed with the latest 4D planning services that FC International is offering. The 4D modelling provides an excellent visual representation of how the building was actually built compared to how it was planned to be built. This cutting-edge service is extremely useful for all stakeholders involved, especially those from a non-technical background, and clearly demonstrates where the sequencing of individual project activities has been impacted.”
