Sooraj,



If the contract is silent on concurrent delays, then don’t mention it. Just make a submission for an EOT based on the Employer caused delay.

thks Roger,

In my case the contract remains silent on concurrent delays. What happens under such situations

Sooraj,



According to most forms of contract, the Contractor is entitled to an EOT for the Employer delay, regardless of any concurrent delay caused by himself.



However, it is not the same for damages. The Contractor should identify & isolate the costs associated with the Employer caused delay. In practice, this is not so simple as it sounds.
