(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?
(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.
Hello All,
As this is my 1st posting on PP website I apologise in advance if this question is a repeat of previous posts. I have read quite alot of threads but did not come across one that covered this topic. Not saying it does not exist somehwere.
My question is not so much one of methodology (TIA, As-built vs As-planned etc) but simply of procedure and a fundamental one at that.
When inputting a delay event in a programme (p6) what is the best process? I.e creating a unique bar representing the delay itself linking it to the affected activties or adjusting the start/finish dates of those activties as per the duration of the delay itself and then explain witihin the narrative the impact on the CP etc. are there any other processes for doing this and is it method related?
Obvisouly from my question I am a newcomer to the craft!
Any input is appreciated.
Regards
Aidan

This makes things clearer.

Hi Aidan
The usual method is to insert a dumkmy activity that represents the duration of the delay event and link it to the affected task(s).
The delay event duration is from the day the event first raised its head to the earliest date that the affected task could have started.

Hi Amit
An example of the delays would be underground obstructions not known at tender and that did not show up during pre-excavation scanning. These obstructions subsequently required halting excavation then supporting the pipe/cable etc and this delayed the entire trenching process.
The client is not accepting that we did not know about the obstructions but their tender drawings did not show them.

Thanks Chris
I'll check into these.

There are two very good references you should examine, the first is by the society of construction law in the UK. http://www.eotprotocol.com/ and the Association for the Advancement of Cost Engineering.
Recommended Practice No. 29R-03 Forensic Schedule Analysis;
Neither are an easy read but well worth the effort.
Hope this helps

Hi Aidan Kelly
The methods may vary but the concept is to determine the potential delay event/ fragnet which justified duration associated with it and it has to be impacted on the reference program used for claim presentation
