BaghdadiLaw’s experience in construction & tender law in Syria

BaghdadiLaw brings nearly seven decades of legal practice, since its founding in 1957, to construction and tender matters, with detailed knowledge connecting bid and contract terms to performance obligations, payment certificates and delay claims. Construction and tender consultation for Syria covers the commitments made before award and the duties arising during project execution. The legal review should connect the tender conditions, signed contract and actual project records rather than treating them as unrelated files.

The Civil Code provides a starting contractual framework, while Public Contracts Law 51/2004 is an identified historical source for qualifying public procurement. Current amendments, special regimes and the particular tender conditions require verification. Identify the document version that was accepted and any later approved changes. A tender assumption omitted from the final contract may need careful treatment.

We agree the work your matter needs: Review commitments before bidding or signature, assess changes during work, or prepare a focused performance, delay or payment response. The deliverable is agreed for your file: A tender-to-contract risk review and a project-specific plan for the legal issue presented.

Our specialist legal team is led by Omar Al-Baghdadi, with more than 30 years of legal experience.

Common questions

Before requesting advice on construction & tender law in Syria

What changes when the employer is a public body?

The applicable public-contract rules and approvals must be identified alongside the tender and contract. A private project clause or commercial practice should not automatically be imported into that relationship.

Should tender exclusions be reviewed before bidding?

Yes. Assess how qualifications interact with tender conditions and acceptance rather than assuming they will be carried into the contract.

Does a legal review replace engineering review?

No. Technical feasibility, quantities and design need appropriate expertise alongside contractual analysis.
