Abstract | Executing a scope of project works within the right time is clearly one of the key
components of project success but it is not easy to achieve in construction industry. In
deed, many construction projects have to face with delay problems in which the causes
come from many different sources. More importantly, delays are almost always
accompanied with cost and time oven-uns. Construction project delays often results in
adverse relationships between construction stakeholders (client, contractor, consultant
etc.), distrust, litigation, arbitration, cash-flow problems, and a general feeling of
apprehension towards each other.
Due to inherent risk and complexity of modern construction project, delays and delay
claims have become common facts in construction industry. While delays are life of
construction projects, delay claims tend to be some of the least understood and frequently
confusing claims in the construction field. Therefore, a clear understanding of the basic
elements necessary to prove delay claims is invaluable in the processing of complex
construction claims.
The main purpose of this report is to identify the major causes of delays and types of
claims in construction projects. The qualitative method of risk management theory is used
to analyze and rank delay factors and their impact in construction progress. Besides, claims
analysis framework and construction claims resolution process is also developed for claims
management.
