Dear All,

The problem related to issue of IFC drawings from client.

In Baseline program activity linked with Site handover and issue of IFC Drawings (FS)

Client issued drwaing without proper details (some areas on hold), in programme both IFC and area handover are milestones.

Area handedover 100%. Levels also given.

Contractor already started the work , probem exist while updating the progress how will be the % progress for IFC ?

 

Option 1: IFC progress 0% and  activity % (say 25%)   then schedule with progress override . In that case how about the logic ?

Any other scenarios from experts most welcome

 

Best Regards,

Sunil.

Hi Sunil

Therefore it remains at 0%.

You can put in a task leading to the milestone and measure progress on that.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for your timely reply. There are many mile stones as you have mentioned earlier. This is for substructure works only among that some footings are on hold. Since this is a milestone progress can be either 0% or 100% , but we cant put 100% because of the incomplete IFC details.

Best Regards,

Sunil.

Hi Sunil

Issued for construction drawings are rarely issued all at the same time so a single milestone is inappropriate.

Your programme should have a series of milestones for the latest dates for each section of the works with an allowance for sub contract design and procurement.

When these milestones are missed then you can assess the impact on completion for each case.

Remember that progress on a milestone is either 0% or 100%.

Best regards
