The causes of a Loss of Productivity can be numerous and recognizing such loss occurring can be difficult. More difficult is tying any specific cause to a specific impact, and then quantifying the extent of that impact. Unfortunately, some trades are more susceptible to losses of productivity than others, but are left with little recourse than to muddle through and present a claim at the end of a project; and more often than not, owners are faced with the task of separating the actual from the perceived impacts being claimed.
In this webinar expert speaker Fritz Marth will walk the attendee through the causes, results, and analysis of losses of productivity, in many cases using real-life case histories as a background. With the help of this webinar the attendee will develop an understanding of the causes, symptoms, and quantification of losses in productivity on construction projects.
