Prospective Forensic Analysis/Programme Audit/ Delay Analysis

Hi Dominic

I would suggest that you start from the end and work backwoods.

Reschedule and then filter on the critical path.

Find which of the critical links come from a delay or slippage.

Now set up the Link Category System from the library - this will start with the standard links with the facility to add others.

To save time I would list another 10 with names like Crit Delay 01 to Crit Delay 10 - using lead zeroes.

Going back to your driving link right click to bring up Properies and select the drop down for the first link Crit Delay 01.

Then in Options > Reschedule disable the selected link.

When you reschedule your programe will be as if the link never existed.

Make a note of the differences.

Filter on critical and start again using Crit Delay 02

All the link categories can be re established in any order.

I use this method all the time for delay analysis and it is also good for What If scenarios.

Best regards

Thanks Mike, 

I will have a go at this and let you know how I get on.
