In construction projects, we typically expect a negative variance between planned and achieved progress. However, recent statistics from a project I encountered show a surprising positive variance. Here are two possible reasons, in my opinion: 1. The schedule is back-end loaded, but execution is swift, resulting in a significant positive variation. 2. Many out-of-sequence activities, particularly those with more weight, have been executed on-site, contributing to this difference. What are your thoughts? P.s.: As the schedule is a recovery program of remaining/ balance works, so there could be executed multiple parallel activities at a single point of time. Writing this if you were thinking how so many out of sequence or parallel activities can be executed to achieve this much progress at the start of execution.

"Managing Critical Path Shifts " Construction projects are dynamic, and factors like design changes, shifting site conditions, and weather can disrupt schedules and cause delays. These factors can also lead to a shift in the critical path-the sequence of tasks that determines a project's completion date. Understanding when and why these shifts occur is essential for determining delay responsibility, assessing whether delays are excusable or compensable, and making decisions about liquidated damages, time extensions, and contractor claims. What is a Critical Path Shift? A critical path is the longest sequence of dependent tasks in a project that determines the earliest possible completion date. A critical path shift happens when the critical path changes due to delays in one part of the project, causing a different sequence of tasks to become critical. Why Do Critical Path Shifts Occur? Critical path shifts are typically caused by: Progress-induced shifts: When tasks progress slower than expected, or not at all, causing the critical path to shift. Schedule-induced shifts: When changes are made to the project schedule, such as re-sequencing tasks, adding/removing tasks, or modifying task durations. Even a small delay in a non-critical task can push the critical path forward, resulting in significant project delays. Finaly: Accurately identifying when and why critical path shifts occur is vital for determining delay responsibility. Understanding how progress and schedule revisions impact the critical path is key to managing delays, determining compensable delays, and making informed decisions on time extensions, liquidated damages, and contractor claims.
