Settle delay with evidence, not arbitration.

Scheduling, cost control and claims and delay analysis for power plants, process units and turnarounds. We document what happened while it happens, so time and money are resolved on facts.

What is really at risk.

01

Windows are fixed

Turnarounds and outages have a start date and a restart date. Every lost day is lost production, and someone will be asked to pay for it.

02

Many parties share the delay

Owners, EPC contractors and equipment vendors all touch the critical path. Without a clean record, every party claims the other caused the slip.

03

Hindsight is expensive

Forensic analysis built years later costs more and proves less. Contemporaneous records decide most disputes before they start.

Energy Infrastructure

Where we add control.

  1. 01

    On-site and combined heat and power plants

    Generation projects with interconnection, commissioning and performance testing on the critical path.

  2. 02

    Process unit expansions

    Tie-ins to live units, with turnaround windows and restart dates fixed in advance.

  3. 03

    Turnarounds and outages

    Shift-by-shift schedules where every hour of downtime carries a cost.

  4. 04

    Terminals and midstream facilities

    Tank farms, compressor stations and pipelines with permitting and procurement risk.

How we control it here.

Change ManagementControl

Change and notice logs that tie every event to its cost and time effect.

In practice · On-Site Power Plant

A 120 MW plant, a claim resolved without arbitration.

A multi-party time extension request on an on-site power plant could have gone to arbitration. We performed contemporaneous delay analysis on the schedule record, separated each party’s delay and quantified the time each was responsible for. The parties settled the request on that evidence, without a hearing.

Questions owners ask us.

What is contemporaneous delay analysis?

It is analysis done during the project, using the schedule updates and records as they are produced. It is usually more accurate and less costly than analysis rebuilt years later.

Do you work for owners or contractors?

Both. We are engaged by owners, contractors and counsel, and our analysis follows AACE recommended practices whichever side engages us.

Can you help prevent claims, not just analyze them?

Yes. Clean baselines, documented changes and regular schedule reviews remove most of the ambiguity that turns into claims.
