Forensic Schedule Analysis

Prove It or Disprove It – Delay Claims Built (or Broken) on P6 Forensics

Whether you’re a contractor claiming EOT or an owner rejecting one, our Primavera P6 forensic analysis delivers court-grade evidence: isolating what delayed, who caused it, and how much is excusable/compensable—AACE 29R-03 & FIDIC compliant.

Dual-Sided Expertise

For Contractors (Claimants)For Owners (Defendants)
Build bulletproof EOT – Fragnets + TIA prove owner delaysDismantle weak claims – Expose pacing, logic flaws, concurrency
Quantify prolongation – Link delays to cost-loaded activitiesProtect float & mitigation – Show contractor failures absorbed impact
Win $10 M+ settlements – Contemporaneous updates as evidenceSlash payouts by 60 % – Concurrent delay tests neutralize excuses

The 6-Step Forensic Process (P6-Powered)

  1. Data Lockdown – Audit baselines, updates, as-builts (Schedule Log flags issues)
  2. Baseline vs As-Built Overlay – Visual delay waterfall
  3. Event Isolation – Insert fragnets into pre-delay update
  4. Dynamic Recalc – TIA per event → critical path shift
  5. Concurrency Check – Multiple float paths prove parallels
  6. Claim Package – Claim Digger reports + EVM-linked costs + dashboards

Methods We Master: TIA (gold standard), Windows, Collapsed As-Built, Longest Path.

P6 Tools That Seal the Deal

  • Claim Digger → Every logic/duration change tracked
  • Fragnets → Model RFIs, changes, weather in <1 hour
  • Monte Carlo Add-On → Risk-adjusted EOT (P80 confidence)
  • Visualiser → Red-bar Gantts for arbitrators
