Impacted As-Planned is a prospective methodology that relies on impacting the originally planned sequence of works with the delay event.

Complex construction projects come with their share of challenges. Engaging Quantum Experts and Delay Experts can be the difference between a project that thrives and one that falters. 

Claims advisory services are here to keep your projects on track, providing the expertise needed to navigate disputes effectively. 

The Zweite M/S “Philippa Schulte” Shipping GmbH v PSA Corp Ltd [2012] SGHC 135 case highlights essential lessons for Delay Experts and Quantity Surveyors.

Delay analysis is a vital process in construction disputes. When a project runs late, everyone involved—clients, contractors, and subcontractors—wants to know why. That’s where delay experts come in.

In construction project management, scheduling is crucial for timely and efficient project completion. A common practice involves applying constraints to activities within the schedule, particularly mandatory start and finish constraints.

Delay analysis is a means to understand why a construction project took longer than planned and how those delays affected the project.

The critical path represents the longest sequence of dependent activities that determine the shortest possible duration to complete a project.

Australia’s construction industry is essential to national development, yet it faces significant challenges due to five primary mega-disrupters.

Behaviours and interactions between project stakeholders play a pivotal role in determining the success or failure of a project.

In many projects, non-contestable works fall directly on the critical path. When they’re delayed, the ripple effect is felt across the entire program.

Navigating claims in today’s environment requires expertise, precision, and a thorough understanding of construction contracts.

A disruption claim aims to show a decrease in productivity, resulting in additional costs that wouldn't have occurred without the disruptive events the Employer causes.

Acceleration following failure by the Employer to recognise that the Contractor has encountered Employer Delay for which it is entitled to an extension of time...

Engaging an expert may be one of the most valuable decisions Employers or Contractors may make but how exactly can an expert help and when should they be engaged?

When drafting a quantum and/or delay claim based on several events, claimants commonly use inference rather than causation to build their arguments.  

A simplistic, retrospective methodology, which in its simplest form compares the as-built program to the planned (baseline) program.

Infrastructure, residential, and commercial construction projects can potentially impact natural habitats, affecting flora and fauna.

The NEC contract prescribes that an extension of time, delay and quantum be determined prospectively. The NEC contract requires the contractor to maintain an up-to-date program.

The term “Contract Program” is often used in reference to the Construction or Contractor’s Program. The Construction (or Contractor’s) Program is basically the execution plan and timeline of how the works under the Contract will be carried out and measured. It should consider the key sequences of work and resource dependencies. It should also, depending on the Contract, identify the critical path and the relationships between the planned activities and interfaces.
