Ah, this is a good one. I remember covering these contract types in class, but I'm a bit fuzzy on the specifics now. I'll need to review my notes and the key characteristics of each option to determine the best fit.

I think I'd start by considering the key features of each contract type and how they might fit the client's needs. FIDIC and NEC seem like the most relevant options, but I'll need to review the details to decide which one is the best fit.
