Delay analysis

Delay analysis that helps teams understand position before discussions harden.

Start 2 Finish provides structured delay analysis and progress review to help teams understand the effect of change, disruption and slippage on programme position, project risk and commercial exposure before delay discussions become harder to manage.

Where this helps

  • Progress no longer reflects the original programme assumptions.
  • Change, disruption or sequencing problems are affecting delivery and reporting confidence.
  • The team needs clearer understanding of delay position before commercial discussions intensify.

What it helps achieve

  • Better visibility of planned versus actual progress
  • Clearer understanding of disruption and programme impact
  • Stronger support for extension of time and wider delay discussions

Scope of support

  • Planned versus actual progress assessment
  • Review of change, disruption and programme impact
  • Support for extension of time, delay-related discussions and position testing
  • Structured analysis to clarify programme and commercial position

How Start 2 Finish works

Support can be provided as a targeted one-off review, a defined package of planning analysis or broader advisory input around a live delivery issue.

The scope is shaped around the question that needs answering, the pressure the project is under and the level of clarity leadership or the commercial team requires.
