Does it affect the critical path or just use up float?
You do need to keep your client informed of all developments - particularly notices from the contractor.
Your letter would be very simple along these lines:
Dear sir
I attach a copy of a letter we have recieved from xyz contractor ref sssss date dd-mmm-yy.
This states that milestone nr 123 for whatever it is which should have been achieved on dd-mmm-yy has been passed.
Please inform us when you will be acheiving this milestone so that we can regularise the contractors programme.
There is currently xx working days float attached to this milestone so it will not become critical until dd-mmm-yy after which delay to project is a likely occurrence.
OR
This milestone is now critical and any further delay will have a direct and commensurate affect on the projec completion date.
