    AGENDA

    Background (Contracts, Delays,

    Analysis, Claims, Disputes, Resolution)

    The Protocol (Structure)

    The Protocol (Aims and Achievements)

    Challenges in Implementing the Protocol

  • 7/29/2019 Challenges Protocol

    3/96

    Contracts and Project Delays

    Contracts have completion dates and liquidated

    damages are tied to completion date

    Extension of Time clauses maintain LD provisions

    where there has been breach by Employer

    If Employer causes a delay and there is no EOT

    clause, time can (not universal) become at largeand LD clause fails.

    EOTs also relate to financial matters including

    bonus situation

  • 7/29/2019 Challenges Protocol

    4/96

    Contracts and Project Delays

    Contract provisions define the basis of entitlement

    Contracts are imprecise as to how to demonstrate

    delay and prove entitlement

    Debate about actual delay and contractual

    entitlement

    Hence Delay Analysis Methodology has

    developed

    SCL Protocol advances Delay Analysis

    Delay to be on the critical path

  • 7/29/2019 Challenges Protocol

    5/96

    Extension of Time Methods

    Estimate or Model Methods (investigate the EVENT

    and its potential impact)

    Actual Methods (identify the DELAYperiodand

    investigate what caused it)

    Model Based Methods

    Global and Net Impact Methods

    As-Planned Impact

    As-Planned But For

    Collapsed As-Built (As-Built But For)

    Time Impact Analysis (Impact / Update)

    10/96

    Prospective and Retrospective

    Approaches P looks forward and anticipates delay

    (Preventative; forward looking)

    R looks back and establishes cause ofdelay (Curative; allocation of blame)

    SCL Protocol offers another approach to

    R; put yourself back at the time of theevent and re-assess what might have

    happened had things been done

    differently.

    CORE PRINCIPLES

    Good Programme Systems and Management

    Good Record Systems and Management

    Contemporaneous, incremental, assessment of delays and

    award of Extensions of Time

    Time Impact Analysis is the preferred methodology

    Float Project owns, Contractor receives compensation

    Concurrency Contractor receives Time but no Money

    Retrospective delay analysis Re-live the Project; contradicts

    usual assessment of damage?

    Extensions of Time after the Project (Retrospective)

    Four Methods

    Updated/Revised Programmes Balance taken re time/costs

    Consider the terms of the Contract

    Factual analysis or Entitlement driven?

    Placing oneself back at the time of the delay

  • 7/29/2019 Challenges Protocol

    70/96

    THE PROTOCOL

    -AIMS-

    Not intended as a contract document

    Offers specification terms for programme

    management and record keeping

    Offers guidance in the management of delay and

    disruption that is, in the management of change

    Extensions of Time should be dealt with at the time Time Impact Analysis is the recommended method

  • 7/29/2019 Challenges Protocol

    71/96

    THE PROTOCOL

    -ACHIEVEMENTS-

    Hoped that Contracting Parties would adopt its

    recommendations Prospective X

    Hoped/Attempted to have industry contractingbodies adopt it Prospective X

    Attempted to have the Courts adopt it

    Retrospective X Delay Analysts adopt it

    Added to knowledge; Great Debate!

  • 7/29/2019 Challenges Protocol

    72/96

    THE PROTOCOL

    -CHALLENGES-

    Must be Industry/Profession/Employer led

    Main Contractors would be unwise adopting it with

    Subcontractors

    It reduces risk pre-set rules/outcomes

    It increases riskassumes one solution for all cases

    Early delays tend to over-compensate the Contractor

    Protocol needs re-drafting to remove optional aspects

  • 7/29/2019 Challenges Protocol

    73/96

    THE PROTOCOL

    -CHALLENGES-

    Needs to deal more practically with constructive acceleration

    Should advance a debate on the fairness of condition

    precedent clauses

    Does it amend the basis upon which damage is normally

    assessed?

    English law focussed; need to consider other legal systems.

  • 7/29/2019 Challenges Protocol

    74/96

    THE PROTOCOL

    -CONCLUSIONS-

    Drafting requirements

    Commercial implications; risk issue

    Methodology greatly influences outcomes

    Practical implications; skills and resources

    required

    Not widely adopted yet on live projects

    Authors to be complemented for creating
