NEC - EoT Entitlement

I guess the question I have is.......

 

Where do you stand in terms of entitlement when the logic of your current Cl32 Programme differs from the Cl62 programme and therefore the impact of additional work is different?

There is Time Risk within the programme.

 

There is a major programme change between the last accpeted and the current draft, as we have lifted out a section of works and placed it after the planned Completion Date with the agreement of the PM, therefore the logic has changed significantly.

 

I guess a simplifeid version of the question would be if the accpeted programme was the 1st programme with all others being rejected, therefore the logic of the accepted programme was very different from the actual logic.

 

In this case you would only assess against the accpeted logic which beared no resemberlance to the current logic and therefore would you be entitled to a say 10 day delay against accepted if that delay had now been mititgated by your works on site?

 

What does entitlement actually allow for?

Hi Tony

Are there any Time Risk Buffers in your programme.

There should be two:

1.  For Contractors Time Risk Contingency - which is not changed if there are compensatable delay evnts.

2.  For Employers use to absorb compensatable delays.

If there aren't any buffers then you are not applying the contract correctly and I suggest that you go back to the original approved programme and put them in and then get retrospective approval.

Then run the changes again.

If the changes then just use up float off the critical path then that is the result - so no compensation.

Best regards
