Any project has agreed commencement date which what we usually called as the "DAY One"...this will  commence upon the receipt of the Notice to Proceed from the Engineer/Owner. Now if the contractor can't start due to some documentation issues (due to Engineer/Owner) may of course request through letter to move the said Day One. Or alternatively document these event as cause of delay and claim later on for the extension.

Commencement date used to be a key date or mile stone............. was this established in a contractual manner ? Did you mobilize on time ?  is there any records which shows  your pre -construction activities are done on time i.e according to agreed time ..if so ............. you can ,initially serve the notice(s) of delays and once the impact of the the delay is known ,its  impact can be demonstrated using CPM.........

Dear Marvilyne,

 

Can I assume the contract that you have with your client is FIDIC 99?

 

In that case please refer to Clause 1.9 Delayed drawings and instructions, you have send a notice as

per clause 20.1 and claim extension of time as per clause 8.4.

 

best regards
