There is a saying that the float belongs to who ever needs it first. Your case sounds quite complicated (aren’t they all!) and to get an answer you would have to go back through the wording of the conditions of contract as to obligations regarding programmes and performance.



Generally I agree that sub contractors should write thier own programmes using given constraints from the main programme, however I have also written and given sub contractors programmes when they haven’t performed. Usually they are contractually bound to perform to the constraints (milestones or similar) of the main programme and if they don’t to the satsifaction of the main contractor, the main contractor is entitled to take steps to ensure performance. One may or may not be, depending on the contract, to write thier programme and expect them to stick to it.
