Dear All,
Kindly share your input/thoughts for the following situation.
After the baseline programme is approved.At the middle of the project a variation was issued by the Client and the Contractor issued an EOT notification for the delay in permit for some other works.
I will do the evaluation of EOT as follows;
1. Use the updated programmes just before the variation order and the permit issue respectively and check the revised completion date. In the mean time check the concurrents delays from the Contractor.
2. Based on this new completion date, will ask the Contractor to make the modification in the original baseline programme to get this revised completion date.This will be set as the revised baseline. The revised S-Curve will be taken from this schedule.
3. I do not agree with the setting of revised updated programme(with variation & permit EOT) as the revised baseline programme since it may contain delays in other paths by the contractor. So no need to set the contractor's delay as the new baseline.
4. Similarly I do not agree with the revised S-Curve from the revised updated programme, because there will be many other paths in the programme, which are in delay compared to the original baseline programme. So no need to allow the Contractor to set their delay as the new baseline.
Best Regards
Kannan
