    Hi IsmailThese are American

    Hi Ismail

    These are American titles.

    In the definitions section of types of analysis prepared for the Virginia Department of Transport:

    http://www.virginiadot.org/business/resources/const/0703_PrinciplesofSIA.pdf

    The terms are defined as follows:

    Modification Impact Analysis (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers) – a contemporaneous

    schedule impact analysis technique in which at the time of modification, the

    actual status of the job is determined, the schedule is updated, and the delay is

    inserted to quantify singular impact

    Time Impact Analysis – similar to the Modification Impact Analysis, a schedule impact

    analysis technique that recreates the actual status of the job at the time of

    modification, updates the schedule, inserts delays, and quantifies singular impact;

    although retrospective in that it is done after the fact, it has a contemporaneous

    orientation, not a hindsight perspective

    Schedule Impact – the potential effect of a delay or change on a project schedule; may

    be in the form of delay or change in project completion date, delay or change in

    project sequence, or consumption of float

    Schedule Impact Analysis (SIA) – the process of quantifying and apportioning the

    effect of delay or change on the project schedule.

     
    Which appears to mean that TIA is used for work in progress and SIA is forensic (or maybe not).

    Hi IsmaelNot really - they

    Hi Ismael

    Not really - they are both the same techniques but according to the American's TIA is for work in progress and SIA is for completed projects.
