Primavera P6, Microsoft Project, Delay Analysis Tips & Tricks
Purpose of EOT It is often incorrectly thought that entitlement to an EOT automatically carries with it an entitlement to compensation for prolongation costs during the period of the EOT. The main effect of an EOT is that the Contractor is relieved of its liability for liquidated damages during the period of the extension and... Continue Reading →
1. What is Delay Start-up Insurance (DSU)? Delay in start-up (DSU) cover is designed to secure the portion of revenue which the owner: Requires to service debt; andRealize anticipated profit. It provides protection against delays arising from physical damage caused by any type of peril included in the relevant material damage cover, i.e. the Contractors'... Continue Reading →
1. Introduction 1.1. Construction Claims What is Construction Claims? A construction claim is the assertion of a right demanding either additional time or/and payment due to the result of an action. It is possible to meet construction claims in all construction projects. Why do Construction Claims occur? Clients, contractors, and subcontractors of this environment try... Continue Reading →
What is Concurrent Delay in Construction Claims? Meaning of concurrent delay (from SCL Delay and Disruption Protocol 2nd Edition) True concurrent delay is the occurrence of two or more delay events at the same time, one an Employer Risk Event, the other a Contractor Risk Event, and the effects of which are felt at the...

This article addresses the concepts of several typical delay analysis methods in construction claims. Why do we need Delay Analysis in Construction Claims? Because The Delay Must Affect The Critical Path The Construction Contracts often state that no adjustment to the critical milestones dates or the scheduled completion dates would be made unless the delay...

What is Concurrent Delay? The term “concurrent delay” is commonly used to describe circumstances where owner-caused delays and contractor-caused delays occur at the same time. In true concurrency, the owner and contractor delay events (the cause of delay) both occur at the same time and the delay caused by the delay events start and finish... Continue Reading →
After performing delay analysis work in Primavera P6 or MS Project, we should make a summary graphic report for high-level manager. It would be difficult to get the overview of the analysis with a detail report like the following picture: A simple bar chart or timeline would be more effective and I would like to...

Introduction An Collapsed As-Built / As-Built But-For Schedule Delay Analysis (ABBF) is a retrospective CPM schedule delay analysis technique that determines the earliest date that the required project completion activity, or various milestone activities could have been achieved but-for the owner-caused delays that occurred during the project. The amount of owner-caused delay determined from the ABBF Schedule... Continue Reading →
Primavera P6 software can be very useful in delay analysis work. Some of the benefits are described as follows. 1. Filter which activity affect the critical milestones There could be many delay events happened in a project and each delay event affects certain activities. What are the delay events or activities impacting the critical milestones?... Continue Reading →
We have a report showing Delay Event project and Baseline project. The Baseline project need to show Baseline date so we can compare Baseline date and Impacted date. However we don't need to show Baseline date in Delay Event project which is meaningless and confusing. However by default, Primavera P6 always shows "something" in Baseline... Continue Reading →
Suppose that the project have 5 delay events. If we need to see a combined effect of delay event 1 and delay event 2, we have to create a new project and insert those delay events. Then if we need to see a combined effect of delay event 1 and delay event 3, we have... Continue Reading →
The Impacted As-Planned method measures the impact of the delays on the as-planned schedule. The delays are formulated as activities and added to the as-planned schedule showing the effect of each delay and demonstrating how the project is being delayed. The amount of delay equals the difference in completion dates between the schedules before and after the impacts. We have... Continue Reading →
