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
