Use of CPM Scheduling to Prove Delay

 
Courts and boards of contract appeals have criticized the use of bar chart schedules and have shown a strong preference for the use of CPM scheduling techniques in the proof and defense of delay claims. CPM scheduling is just as important in job management and administration as it is in claims presentation and defense. The CPM schedule must be properly prepared if it is to be accepted by the courts. It must also be used in the field; a completely theoretical schedule developed strictly for the purpose of supporting a claim is much less likely to be accepted. The CPM schedule must be kept up-to-date and must incorporate delays as they occur. If delays are not concurrently inputted into the computer, the effect upon the critical path and job planning cannot be properly maintained.

In this 33-minute video our speaker, Victor F. Luke, Esq., reviews the nuts and bolts of how delay is actually proved. He explains that for some delay to be excusable or compensable, it takes more than a breach of contract. You need to prove that there was a breach of contract which caused delay to the completion date.
