The construction industry has one of the highest records of delayed project completions. Each year, millions of pounds are lost because of poor time management, project controls and record keeping. As a result projects often end in dispute between the parties with a consequential need for each to demonstrate extensions to time and matters of project disruption, either for relief from liquidated damages, for demonstration of additional costs that have been incurred, or both. An understanding of the principles underpinning project delay and disruption, together with the range of techniques that are used to demonstrate such matters, are a must for organisational stability.
- Are you familiar with the key legal principles associated with matters of delay and disruption?
- Are you familiar with the range of techniques adopted to demonstrate delay and disruption, their advantages and disadvantages?
- Are you familiar with the practicalities of standard time related contract administration requirements?
- Are you equipped with the tools to prepare focused and meaningful reports?

About the course
This two day, highly interactive, Practical Management of Construction Delay and Disruption course is essential for those engaged regularly in matters of project delay and disruption.
The course is presented by a range of experts in this field and has been constructed to provide course delegates with a ‘toolkit’ such that they may practically consider both proactive and reactive measures back in their own work environment.
This course has been constructed to provide delegates with practical ‘hands-on’ sessions to consider the implementation of the theories and techniques presented.
