I’m confused because I remember FIDIC being called "The Red Book," but what if it’s NEC? I need to double-check my notes.

I feel like CIPS is related to procurement, not contracts. So that leaves us with NEC or FIDIC, right?

I practiced a question like this before, and I think JCT was more about UK contracts, so it can't be the answer.

I think "The Red Book" refers to FIDIC, but I'm not entirely sure. I remember it being mentioned in class.
