Navigating Government Shutdowns:
Best Practices to Mitigate Schedule Delays

Government shutdowns can disrupt funding, approvals, and inspections—creating serious schedule risk on federal construction projects. The biggest challenge isn’t reacting to a shutdown, but preparing for one before it happens.

This one-hour webinar outlines how project teams can stay ahead of government shutdowns by minimizing schedule damage, protecting key activities, and accelerating recovery once operations restart. This session focuses on proactive planning, documentation, and schedule awareness you can apply immediately.

You’ll learn how to:

  •  Anticipate shutdown-related schedule impacts
  •  Identify shutdown-sensitive activities
  •  Protect float and critical path work
  • Track the right schedule data during uncertainty
  • Strengthen schedule defensibility and documentation
  • Restart work efficiently post-shutdown

 

Who should attend: Project Managers, Schedulers, Construction Managers, Federal Contractors, and teams responsible for federal project schedules.
