Schedule delay analysis has evolved greatly over the past fifty or so years. Advances in computer technology, and especially the advent of, and advances in, personal computing have resulted numerous ways with which to address schedule delay claims. Unfortunately, many of these methods offer only facile solutions to complex problems.In this webinar we will briefly review the concepts of Critical Path Method (CPM) scheduling, and then apply the concept of the critical path to the various methods of schedule delay analysis. We will look at both modeled methods of analysis and observational methods. We will address the pros and cons of the various methods, the data necessary for their implementation of each method, and the current state of acceptability of each method. Finally, we will work some basic examples of each method, illustrating the major points of our discussion.
In this webinar expert speaker Fritz Marth will help attendees to develop understanding of Critical Path Method scheduling and how the concepts of Critical Path Method Scheduling apply to the analysis of schedule delays.
