Hi

I checked the ownership of total float in the specification

It has been defined as

Ownership of float belongs to the project {who ever use it first} .

what does who ever use it first mean ?

    It means the first delay events to occur will not result in EOT regardless of whether it is contractor or client responsibility, up until the point when all total float is eroded.

    Regards,

    Dear Shahul,

    There are many articles about the subject. What you described is only one opinion "Whoever use it first".

    IMHO you need to look at it case by case. The Schedule is prepared by the Contractor. The client doesn’t need the schedule, they need the end product. Schedules are tools to solve the issues. Expert opinion at site is a better way to solve the issues. Especially from the people who have hands on the issues.

    With kind regards,

    Samer
