Dear Samad,



Yes, at any time the Engineer gives notice that the Program fails to comply with the Contract (in this case you forgot to include certain activities) then the Contractor shall submit a revised program as per FIDIC clause 8.3.



If you have any questions, please let us know.

Hello Samer



I just want to ask you that If the main contractor missises to include some of the activities in the clause 14 programme, and the same has been approved by the Engineer. What is the remedial solution.



Can we ask the main contractor to incorporate the missed out activity in the programme??

Dear Sami,



Answer 1:

Engineer will ask the Contractor to modify the Program of Works when it is no longer representing the actual progress of the project.

Regarding the delays and the EOT, it is always advisable to keep the Schedule current with the latest EOT. That is up to the Contractor to submit and up to the Engineer and Owner to review and approve. Since the communication of the project is not shown on the Program of Works, but supported in the Weekly and Monthly reports, "Default" understanding of the status of the EOT or in progress EOT should be obtained from the reports and not looking at the Schedule.



Answer 2:

There are many methods to do Delay Analysis

a. As Planned vs As Built

b. As Planned Impacted

c. Collapsed As Built

d. Window Analysis

e. Time impact analysis



Depending on the case that you have, you can use one or more methods from the stated above. In depth information is available on line by googling it. Regarding Ownership of the float, if it is not specifically stated in your contract then you can negotiate it with your client and come to an agreement on it.



If you have any specific case, please let us know.



Best Regards,



Samer
