Project Controls & Planning
Expert planning and scheduling services to ensure your projects stay on track, on budget, and meet stakeholder expectations.
Tender Planning
Strategic bid schedule development that demonstrates technical competence and realistic delivery timelines. Risk assessment and resource-loaded schedules to support accurate cost estimation.
Construction Planning
Detailed construction schedules using Primavera P6, MS Project, or ASTA Powerproject. Regular progress monitoring, critical path management, and lookahead planning.
Project Recovery
Schedule health assessments, recovery programme development, and critical path acceleration strategies. Enhanced monitoring systems to track recovery progress.
Earned Value Management
Cost and schedule integration for performance measurement and forecasting. Clear reporting dashboards for stakeholders and decision-makers.
Risk Management
Identification, quantification, and mitigation strategies for project risks. Probabilistic schedule analysis and contingency planning.
Change Management
Assessment of schedule impacts from variations, monthly progress reporting, and programme revision management.
Forensic Delay Analysis
Independent, evidence-based analysis of project delays using recognised methodologies to support claims and dispute resolution.
Our analysis is conducted in accordance with the Society of Construction Law Delay and Disruption Protocol (2nd Edition, 2017) and AACE International Recommended Practice 29R-03: Forensic Schedule Analysis.
Methods of Analysis
As-Planned vs As-Built
Compare the original baseline programme against actual project performance to identify variances, establish the factual delay position, and determine the causes of delay. This evidence-based approach forms the foundation of forensic schedule analysis.
Impacted As-Planned
Model the effect of delay events on the original programme by inserting identified delays into the as-planned schedule and observing their impact on the critical path and completion date.
Time Impact Analysis (TIA)
Contemporaneous, prospective analysis that models the effect of each delay event at the point in time it occurred, using schedule updates to assess the impact on the critical path and project completion.
Windows Analysis
Divide the project into defined time periods (windows) and analyse delay causation within each period, providing a detailed chronological account of how delays evolved throughout the project.
Collapsed As-Built (But-For)
Start from the as-built programme and systematically remove identified delay events to determine when the project would have completed but for those delays. A retrospective, subtractive approach.
Expert Witness Services
Credible, professional testimony and reporting for construction disputes, arbitration, and litigation proceedings.
Expert Reports
Comprehensive written opinions on delay, disruption, and quantum matters. Clear, well-structured reports suitable for adjudication, arbitration, and court proceedings.
Court Testimony
Clear, credible expert witness testimony in arbitration and litigation. Experience presenting complex technical matters to non-technical audiences.
Mediation Support
Technical expertise to facilitate dispute resolution discussions. Objective analysis that helps parties reach fair settlements.
Rebuttal Analysis
Thorough review and critique of opposing expert opinions. Identification of methodological weaknesses and factual inaccuracies.
Damages Assessment
Calculation of delay-related costs, prolongation claims, and loss and expense. Evidence-based quantum analysis tied to schedule delay.
Claims Preparation & Review
Assistance in preparing or reviewing Extension of Time and cost claims. Strategic advice on contractual matters and dispute prevention.
Dispute Avoidance
Proactive management and documentation practices to prevent disputes before they arise.
Contemporaneous Record Keeping
Establish robust documentation practices for schedule changes and delay events. Build a strong evidential foundation from day one.
Early Warning Systems
Implement proactive notification processes for potential delays and impacts. Identify issues before they escalate.
Extension of Time Management
Timely assessment and documentation of delay events to support EOT claims. Maintain compliance with contractual notice requirements.
Programme Compliance
Ensure schedules meet contractual requirements and industry standards. Regular independent schedule reviews.
