Frequently Asked Questions
A delay analysis compares the planned construction schedule against the actual timeline to identify what caused delays, who is responsible, and how many days of extension the contractor is entitled to. It is essential for time extension claims and dispute resolution.
The template supports as-planned vs. as-built comparison, impacted as-planned analysis, and window analysis methods. Each approach is suited to different contract requirements and levels of schedule detail available.
Yes. The concurrent delay section helps you identify periods where both owner-caused and contractor-caused delays overlapped. This is critical because most contracts treat concurrent delays differently from single-party delays.
