Delay analysis the smart way forward

By: Language: English Series: Contract Journal ; 432(6564) 1 March 2006, 31(1)Publication details: 2006Subject(s): Summary: Discusses the process involved in making a claim for an extension of time. Argues that the most difficult part of the process is establishing that an event that has or will cause delay is on the critical path of the work. This will differ depending on the life of the project. In an unfinished project, the effect of an event that has occurred, or is likely to occur, is considered prospectively, whilst if a project has been completed it is considered retrospectively.
