In this webinar, participants will learn the essentials of performing a Time Impact Analysis (TIA)
related to construction delays and why it’s a critical practice for managing schedule changes on
construction projects. Specifically, participants will discover:

What is a Time Impact Analysis (TIA)?

• A forward-looking technique that evaluates how a delay or change can affect a projects completion date.
• How TIAs are added into the scheduling process using “fragnet” activities that model the delay.
  
  

Why does TIA Matters in Construction Projects?

• It identifies schedule impacts early, allowing project teams to adjust the plan or request time extension.
• It helps contractors and owners fulfill contractual obligations regarding delays.
  
  

Thee Key Steps to Implementing a TIA:

1. Create a delay activity or “fragnet.”
2. Insert it into the current schedule update.
3. Compare the newly impacted completion date to the original schedule.
   
   

The Role of the Critical Path:

• The critical path pinpoints the sequence of tasks that directly determines the project’s finish date.
• Delays on this path directly affect overall project timelines.

Importance of Proper Documentation:

• It ensures all schedule deviations are tracked throughout the project.
• Having comprehensive schedule updates is crucial for accurately modeling and analyzing delays.

By the end of the webinar, attendees would understand how to apply a TIA to assess real or
potential delays, recognize how critical path analysis underpins effective decision-making, and
see why thorough documentation is essential for an accurate and defensible time impact
analysis.
