Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

I am interested to hear about the experiences of anyone who has used MS Project for Extension of Time submissions or Delay Analysis.

In particular, if the submissions & analysis used ’Time Impact Analysis’ mthodology or other methodologies, such as ’As Planned Impacted’ & ’Collapsed As-Built’.

My experience of using MSProject for EOT/Delay Analysis work has been not very good and I would normally transfer the project data and logic into other database-driven software packages such as P3 or Artemis before using any of the above Delay Analysis techniques.

Have I missed some of the values of MSProject in that it can be used for EOT/Delay analysis work?

Tom,

I agree entirely, and I’ve only had 15 years of forensic analysis experience with EOT’s/delays. What is your preferred software?

see my thread re primavera. My recommendation after 20 years of using MS porject is dont use it for EOT, very very risky !
