Performing Forensic Analysis on Complex EPC Schedules

摘要

This paper is a review of the problems faced in forensic analysis with increasinglylarger and more complex project schedules for EPC contracts. It will cover the potentialproblems caused during the life-cycle and evolution of the project schedule. Along with theproblems that are encountered during and at the end of the job, due to the schedule size,complexity and the issues caused by the scheduling software. It will discuss analysis techniquesfor analyzing these massive schedules forensically (summarization, EPC individually, period byperiod, etc...) along with potential pit falls to avoid.
