Business case

Tunnel construction: using data to clarify delays through critical path analysis

Situation: Disputes
Litigation

Context

Our client faced a number of claims from the EPC contractor responsible for the design and construction of a tunnel.

Key Takeaway

The project encountered delays across a number of competing sequences including (i) the development of detailed design, (ii) access to work areas, (iii) the construction of facilities and (iv) the availability of specialised equipment. By leveraging our data optimisation capabilities, we were able to quickly and robustly review the extensive contemporaneous evidence to analyse candidate critical path sequences and bring clarity for the client in relation to this complex project.

Accuracy Role

We were appointed as independent expert to support our client in pre-dispute proceedings. We provided a preliminary critical path analysis that served to filter the numerous claims and provided a robust foundation from which to respond to the EPC contractor.
