Welcome to Planning Planet you are certainly ahead of the curve in respect of 4D BIM - there is a topic head for BIM discussions so I will move it there.
When construction activities turn critical it is because something happened to make the original programme unworkable.
It was after all someones estimate of the time it will take to finish the job.
It may be possible to recover the delay by re-programming future work but that will be another guess.
If the something that happened was not caused by the contractor then there is usually a mechanism in the Contract to allow for an extension of time for the works in which case it will no longer be critical.
