CPM Scheduling

Project controls, planning, and scheduling are essential elements for the successful completion of projects. Furthermore, effective project controls allow for continuous monitoring and management of all project aspects throughout its duration. Helping teams identify potential risks and implement timely interventions. Planning provides a clear framework for the project, detailing tasks, timelines, and resource allocation. Moreover, this helps streamline operations and enhance stakeholder communication. Thus, scheduling is a vital instrument for tracking project progress and ensuring milestones are achieved, ultimately minimizing delays and managing costs. Collectively, these components contribute to greater efficiency, enhanced collaboration, and informed decision-making, resulting in superior quality outcomes and heightened client satisfaction.

Precision provided expert requests for adjustments (REA), construction claims management, and VA forensic schedule analysis for the Dialysis Expansion Project at the Hunter Holmes McGuire VA Medical Center. This project, located in Richmond, Virginia, had an estimated cost of $8 million. The endeavor involved a comprehensive medical renovation and expansion of critical dialysis facilities at the center.

Impact of Challenges VA REA Forensic Analysis

These challenges necessitated a robust REA claims management strategy. Precision’s experienced team conducted a thorough analysis of each issue’s impact on the schedule. They meticulously documented delays and sought to quantify the associated costs. By employing proven forensic techniques, Precision developed a comprehensive understanding of the delays’ origins and implications.

Claims Management Strategy

Our approach began with a detailed assessment of the project schedule. Precision used the critical path method (CPM) to identify how each delay affected overall project progress. Next, our team examined labor productivity and the implications of lost time due to external factors. Additionally, we produced detailed reports to substantiate claims and support decision-making.

Communication and Collaboration

Effective communication played a pivotal role throughout the project. Precision maintained transparency with all stakeholders, ensuring that everyone understood evolving challenges. Regular updates allowed the project team to adapt promptly to changing circumstances, ultimately supporting timely issue resolution.

Forensic Schedule Analysis

Precision utilized forensic schedule analysis to provide an accurate account of delays. By reviewing time impact analyses, the team pinpointed the specific events that contributed to schedule overruns. This analysis proved indispensable in providing clear evidence for claims negotiation.

Outcome and Resolution

Ultimately, our comprehensive claims management expertise facilitated the resolution of disputes. Consequently, this allowed the project to proceed with minimal interruption. Through our efforts, stakeholders agreed on a fair settlement, which minimized delays and financial losses.

Post-Project Review

After the project’s completion, Precision conducted a post-project review. This review allowed the team to identify lessons learned and areas for improvement. Understanding these insights proves essential for enhancing future project performance.
