Planning & Delay Analysis
Construction projects rarely fail due to structural inadequacy; they fail because of uncontrolled schedules, creeping delays, and unresolved contractual claims. Fusion Developers provides enterprise-grade project controls utilizing Primavera P6. We establish defensible baseline schedules, monitor weekly critical-path movement, and conduct forensic delay analysis to defend and substantiate Extension of Time (EOT) claims.
Primavera P6 Baselines
Enterprise Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) with resource-loaded logic networks
Progress S-Curves
Weekly earned value tracking comparing planned value (PV) against actual progress (EV)
Forensic Delay Analysis
Time Impact Analysis (TIA) and Windows Analysis compliant with the SCL Delay Protocol
FIDIC EOT Claims
Defensible claims documentation substantiating delays, disruptions, and prolongation costs
Controlling the Critical Path with Scientific Rigor
Every major project delivered by Fusion Developers operates under a strict Primavera P6 baseline. By identifying the critical path—the sequence of dependent activities that determines total project duration—we ensure site resources are directed where they matter most, preventing non-critical diversions from delaying commercial handover.
| Delay Analysis Methodology | Application Scenario | SCL Protocol Standing |
|---|---|---|
| Time Impact Analysis (TIA) | Prospective delay assessment during ongoing construction | Gold standard for prospective Extension of Time (EOT) entitlement |
| As-Planned vs As-Built | Simpler retrospective disputes with clear record keeping | Widely accepted for straightforward, single-delay events |
| Collapsed As-Built (But-For) | Evaluating project duration had employer delays not occurred | Highly persuasive in arbitration when testing owner interference |
| Window / Period Analysis | Complex projects with multiple concurrent delays over time | The most rigorous retrospective method for dynamic critical-path shifts |
