Resident engineer

A resident engineer is a construction occupation. It often describes an engineer employed to work from site for the client or the design engineer. The duties include supervision of and issuing of instructions to the contractor and to report regularly to the designer and/or client.[1] The role was common historically and was also defined in the Institution of Civil Engineers Conditions of Contract and FIDIC contracts.[2] It is not a defined role in the commonly used and more modern NEC Engineering and Construction Contract in which similar roles are named as the client's "project manager" and "supervisor".[3]
