Doha, Qatar – 19 September 2018: Earlier this month, Forensic Planning Director Lucia Vernon held a discussion on the topic of ‘Time Impact Analysis in Windows – Concurrency Analysis’ for members of the AACE® International (formerly the American Association of Cost Engineering) – Qatar Section.
‘’Time Impact Analysis in Windows (TIA) is recognised as one of the most credible techniques for analysing construction delays according to AACEI MIP3.7 recommended practice 29R-03,’’ said Lucia Vernon. ‘’Members of the AACEI are familiar with this type of analysis used for concurrency analysis to prove contractor entitlement to prolongation costs where the critical path is investigated in a similar way to the ‘Time Slice’ method. This evening has proved a good opportunity to discuss this multi-faceted issue with an audience of industry professionals who manage some of Qatar’s major construction projects.’’
Over 30 members of the AACEI attended the presentation which was held at the Rotana City Centre Hotel.
Lucia Vernon is an experienced Forensic Planning Director working as part of a team carrying out forensic delay analyses in several different countries.
