Evaluating Delay Impacts: From Root Cause Analysis to Dispute Resolution
Abstract: Construction projects inherently involve complex coordination among multiple stakeholders, interdependent tasks, and unpredictable external challenges, which frequently cause schedule overruns and disputes. Traditional contractual mechanisms—such as extensions of time (EoT), liquidated damages, and force majeure clauses—serve to define responsibilities, allocate risk, and establish formal dispute pathways when delays arise. For example, EoT provisions protect contractors from penalties when delays are beyond their control, provided proper notice and evidence are submitted …
