There is no point in putting acceleration measures on completed work so you must concentrate on work in progress.
Take the current schedule that shows work to complete and take a histogram of the planned resources needed to complete the works in the 8 month duration. Set this data into a spreadsheet.
Now you can concentrate on the acceleration methods - DO NOT just shorten each bar to achieve the result but concentrate on:
1. Working Hours inc Overtime and Weekends.
2. Changed work sequences - extra gangs deployment.
3. Changed calendars - weekend working - multi shift working.
All the time make sure that:
4. The gang deployment is NOT overcowding a work zone.
5. The crane and distribution kit can cope
6. You have lighting in place for night work and your elecricity supply can cope
7. Welfare facilities are adequate for the increased work force
When complete run another histogram to set alongside the original to calculate the extra costs involved.
If after all this you cannot see a 4 month result then DO NOT try to fix it.
