Introducing Change in P5

For me if a time claim is approved, then I revise the original baseline (eg. making rev. 1 from rev. 0), thus having two (or more) baselines attached to the updated schedule.

But how do you incorporate the additional time into the current plan?

U can use the As-built schedule and incorporate the additional activities in it or use the As-planned schedule and incorporate the additional activities in it (and later on update it to reflect the actual dates & progress % till the data date of the claim).

Either can be used based on the method u adapt in getting the approval of the time claim (As-built vs. As-planned or Impacted As-planned...).

Hi Oliver, as karim has mentioned u can insert three types of activities into the new program:

1. DELAYED EVENETS: All activities in which there is a delay impact by client and will straight way lead to increase in time of project.

2. NEW PLANNED EVENTS: New change orders based on EI or PMI and can insert these new activities straight into the program

3. MITIGATE EVENTS: All activities for which contractor can mitigate the impacted delays.

Hope I am clear

Agreed changes to the baseline need adding as costed activities to the baseline programme. How do you then make sure they are in the as-built?

By adding manually to the as-built, or by using som form of update function in P5?

After adding the additional activities in the baseline schedule u now have Rev. 1 of it, your As-built schedule should be having the same activities as of Rev. 1 of the baseline (Either u copy/paste Rev. 1 of the baseline schedule and use the copy as your As-built OR
u add the additional activities manually to the As-built).

After that u can use the update function in calibrating the assigned budgeted units between the baseline and the As-built schedule instead of doing it manually.

Karim,

As i understand it, you copy the revised basline programme, then import the current as-built programme into it as an update, thus changing it into the nrew as-built programme?

Right Oliver, this can be done.
