Short summary experiences

Igor Zirojevikj has extensive experience as a FIDIC Certified Adjudicator, specialising in dispute resolution for complex infrastructure projects. His work has involved overseeing disputes across key sectors such as energy, transportation, water, and civil engineering, ensuring contract compliance and the fair resolution of claims. He has served as an adjudicator on large-scale projects involving power plant rehabilitation, road and railway reconstruction, dam construction, and water supply systems. These projects, valued between €35M and €100M, have required addressing disputes related to design and procurement challenges, construction delays, hydro-mechanical installations, slope stabilisation, track modernisation, controlled blasting, and advanced SCADA system implementation. As a Dispute Board Member, Igor has played a key role in dispute avoidance and resolution by applying his expertise in forensic delay analysis, quantum assessment, and contract administration under FIDIC and other contractual frameworks. His strong proficiency in forensic delay analysis enables him to critically assess project schedules, determine the impact of delays, and provide well-founded decisions on extension-of-time claims and disruption-related disputes. His ability to manage complex contractual issues, including variations, prolongation costs, and claims negotiation, has contributed to the efficient and equitable settlement of disputes. With experience spanning Europe, Africa, and Asia, Igor has demonstrated his adaptability in handling disputes across different legal, technical, and cultural contexts
