Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Design and Build (DB) procurement is becoming a preferred approach for public infrastructure projects because it promotes better coordination, faster delivery, and clearer accountability. In the Philippines, DB projects are guided by the Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) of Republic Act No. 9184, while many foreign-assisted projects rely on the FIDIC Yellow Book 2017 (FIDIC for brevity). This research proposal presents a qualitative comparative study that examines how each framework handles claims procedures. In this research, the two systems will be highlighted on how they differ and where they are aligned. This research also aims to propose practical recommendations which will improve streamline the claim management and help minimize disputes in Philippine public infrastructure projects.
