You are the Contract Manager of the Engineer and person Y is the Contract Manager of the Employer in a construction project under FIDIC 2017 Red Book. The project is late in schedule and Y has issued Employer ' s claim on Delay Damages. You have asked Y to consider whether the Contractor ' s delay to completion is a reflection of cash-flow shortfall from interim payments before making deductions to the Contractor ' s payment. Y replied that even if the Contractor pays Delay Damages to the Employer, the Contractor is still obliged to complete the Works and is not relieved from its duties and obligations. You warned Y of the risks of further reduction of cash-flow by the deduction of Delay Damages from payments. As this could worsen the situation of the Contractor, leading to further delays to the completion of the Works. Who is right?
