Navigating Delays - Time Impact Analysis

This webinar, presented by Diana Hagan, Director of Project Controls and Training at ACE Consulting, provides a comprehensive overview of Time Impact Analysis (TIA) in construction project management.

The webinar covers key topics including:

Understanding Delays: Differentiation between excusable (e.g., weather, material procurement issues) and inexcusable delays (e.g., manpower shortages, deficient work).
TIA Fundamentals: Defining TIA as a forward-looking schedule analysis technique and explaining the importance of an accurate and up-to-date project schedule with correct logic, sequencing, and monthly updates.
TIA Preparation Process: Detailed steps involved in preparing a TIA, including verifying the schedule, updating the current schedule, determining the scope of work, creating a FragNet (a mini-schedule of the delay), and producing a comprehensive narrative.
Critical Path Analysis: Emphasizing how TIA helps understand and manage the critical path and how delays can impact a project’s completion date.
Documentation: Stressing the importance of thorough documentation (the “3 D’s”: documentation, documentation, documentation) supporting a TIA and any claims for time extensions.
Benefits of TIA: Highlighting the advantages of using TIA, such as facilitating negotiations, managing risks, and maintaining an accurate project schedule.
Practical Example: Walking through a specific example of a TIA involving the discovery of a hazardous material on a construction site, illustrating the process of inserting a FragNet into a schedule and analyzing the resulting impact.
Addressing Questions: The webinar concludes with a Q&A session, addressing questions related to government responsiveness, float ownership, weather delays, and other relevant topics.

The webinar aims to equip attendees with the knowledge and understanding to effectively apply TIA to assess delays, make informed decisions based on critical path analysis, and recognize the crucial role of documentation in achieving accurate and defensible outcomes.
