delay and out of sequence TEST

Hello,

I have done a test updating the schedule at a specific data date (last week):

1- Updating without correcting the out of sequence activities----> result: 32 days of delay

2- Updating with correcting the out of sequence -----> result: 10 days of delay.

Question: Do I have the right to make the correction of out of sequence to meet the actual scenario on the site in order to give an accurate data or I should not make any changes in the current schedule.??

For example I have total 10000 metres of multicore cables to  pull. If we assume two pwople gang howmany metres can they pull on a day? Any help will be appreciated

Coronavirus impact on the contractuel finish date

Hello,

As you know the coronavirus has been declared as a pendemic. This will affect most of construction projects and will delay the project finish date.

the question is: How can we evaluate the amount of days to entitle to the contractor. Are we going to insert the activity regarding coronovirus in the last revised baseline and then see the effect on the project finish date? or we do this exercice on the last updated schedule ( but we might have concurrent delay, so it we be difficult to identify the only effect of coronovirus)

Philosophies & Principles Used to Shape Planning Approaches

Any output from a planning process is a consequence of the approach applied by the planner to develop their plan.  Different people will develop different plans to achieve the same objectives based on their knowledge, experience and attitudes. This influence can be ignored or, if better understood, exploited!
