EOT

Dear Azeem,

When an event occurs that causes delay to your approved program of works, then you need to report it to your client as soon as possible. Subsequently, you will need to report the consequences (time and money) of that event.

You can start by reading and understand and real time practice of:

AACEI Recommended Practice

and

SCL for Society of Construction Law EOT Protocal

Cheers,
Happy Planning and Scheduling

Azeem,

To prepare your EOT, you need to have established the happening of the delays events that occurs within the required no of days as per specs. The timing of your claims should be manifested.

Hi Azeem

Assuming that the work is in progress and you have no need for an As Built Programme you will need the following:

1. A baseline programme that shows the detail of the work and a clear critical path - this need to be at level 4 detail with FS links through to completion.

2. A schedule of events that shows the Impact Date - the earliest date that a delayed activity could start after allowing for the effects of the change - including extra design - procurement - delivery etc etc.

3. Each event is placed into the baseline programme one by one - earliest first - as a big bright red task bar and linked to the delayed activity.

4. Reschedule after each event and record the results.

5. Continue until all events are used up.

If you have not got a responsive bar chart as described in section 1 then your EOT will not work correctly so you will have to develop your programme to amke it work.

You will then be challenged that you have fiddled youre programme to show the delay - you will not be alone - this happens every time I have to develop a level 3 programme down to level 4 to start the delay analysis.

I hope this helps

Best regards
