Claims follow the project. Disputes are normal. Claims are thankfully not. We are trying to put out the fire, not figure out why the building burned to the ground.
The best delay analysis is therefore forward-looking. This should be rather obvious. Owners expect contractors to price additional work before it is performed so why should they make an exception for additional time? Contractors need to submit time extension requests quickly so that time extensions can be obtained within a reasonable period of time.
What is reasonable? I would say no more than two months after the delay occurred. If the parties have not agreed on a time extension within that period of time it is far more likely that attorneys will be involved at some point. Trust me when I say that most delay analyses submitted by contractors are woefully inadequate even by the rather vague standards of most owners. Just filling out a certain number of days in that spot on AIA Form G is decidedly not a delay analysis unless there is something else attached.
Having worked on more than a thousand delay analyses over the years I am certainly aware that there are exceptions to the rules. Some owners are adamant about not giving any time no matter how much supporting documentation is provided. Facts are replaced by opinions. You would almost think it would kill that person to grant one measly additional day of time.
Nobody even considered calling an attorney. Yet on this project that supposed to take calendar days we were able to obtain calendar days in time extensions for a series of unanticipated events. To be fair, this particular project was delayed so much that the owner awarded work to my client that was otherwise planned for the next phase. Nevertheless, the time extension discussions were quite amicable.
Our baseline schedule showed a well-defined sequence of work among 18 transit stations. The owner was unable to grant access to these stations in the order we had requested and there very little the contractor could do to mitigate the situation.
