Hafeet Rail · EOT entitlement & forensic delay claims

A major rail programme in significant dispute, where internal reporting had lost credibility and contested entitlement turned on separating design-change events from concurrent contractor causes.

The challenge

A major rail programme entered significant dispute. Design-change events and third-party interface delays formed the bulk of contested extension-of-time entitlement, but the contractor's internal reporting had lost credibility: the programme could no longer show, defensibly, what had caused the delay or who was responsible.

Our approach

Project Assure produced a forensic windows (time-slice) analysis grounded in the contemporaneous Primavera P6 record and aligned to the SCL Delay & Disruption Protocol. Each critical-delay window was characterised against real events, and employer-risk design-change impacts were separated from concurrent contractor-risk causes: the distinction on which entitlement, and prolongation cost, ultimately turns.

Outcome

Outcome

Forensic windows analysis produced. Design-change impacts separated from concurrent contractor causes. EOT entitlement structured and substantiated into a position built to hold in negotiation and before a tribunal.
