1. As‐Planned Vs.

As‐Built
It is one of the observational and static analysis.
It is the analysis of comparing the planned schedule as initially
envisaged to what actually happened as constructed, then
inferring/speculating from the differences between both, while
dividing the causes of delay, the resulting effects and then the
liability of each party.

2. Updated As‐Planned Vs. Updated
As‐Built (As‐Planned Vs. As‐Built)
It is one of the observational and dynamic analysis.
This method considers project various schedule updates as works progressed such
as changes in sequence and critical path based on progress made.
It is the process of comparing the planned timing of activities on the first/former
planned schedule update to what actually happened as constructed as depicted
from the subsequent schedule update while comparing the critical path(s) of the
former update and the progressed update until developing a totally progressed
version of the first/former update from the successive schedule update up to the
successive update’s data date, then inferring from the differences between both,
while dividing the causes of delay, the resulting effects and then the liability of each
party.
This process is repeated between all consecutive schedule updates until the end of the project.

3. As‐Planned Impacted (Single Base)

It is one of the modelled and static analysis.


It is the analysis of comparing the: i) original single baseline programme,
to ii) recalculated simulated programme,
whereby delay events/issues are added as discrete programme activities with
activity time‐duration and linked to other relevant activities (Predecessors/start
constraints and Successors), to calculate their effects on the baseline programme.
Then, the states before and after and the difference in completion date between
the original baseline programme and simulated programme represents the effect of
the inserted delay event(s).

4. Time Impact Analysis (Windows
Analysis) (Recommended Method)
It is one of the modelled and dynamic analysis.
It is similar to aforementioned “As‐Planned Impacted (Single Base)” but carried out
in windows or watersheds’ analysis; so does consider the schedule updated
programmes as works progress not only the baseline programme, in addition to as‐
built data as well.
The additive simulation is carried out on various multiple CPM models representing
the baseline programme and all update schedules considering project
contemporaneous records.
Each model represents a window or a watershed for a defined period of the analysis
that confines the delay impact quantification in that period, whereby impact
events/fragnets are chronologically inserted into the proper updated programme.

5. Collapsed As‐Built
It is one of the modelled and static analysis.
it is the analysis of comparing the: i) final As‐built programme, to
ii) recalculated simulated programme, whereby delay events/issues are subtracted
as discrete programme activities (fragnet or sub‐network) or as a calculated
duration that represents the delay event effect, to calculate their effects on the
final As‐built programme.
Then, the sates before and after and the difference in completion date between the
final As‐built programme and simulated programme represents the effect of the
delay event(s).

6. Collapsed As‐Built (Multiple Base)
It is one of the modelled and dynamic analysis.
• It is similar to aforementioned “Collapsed As‐Built (Single Base)” but carried out
in windows or watersheds’ analysis; so does consider the schedule updated
programmes as works progress not only the final As‐built programme.

• The subtractive simulation is carried out on various multiple CPM models


representing the final As‐built programme and all update As‐built schedules
considering project contemporaneous records. Each model represents a window
or a watershed for a defined period of the analysis that confines the delay impact
quantification in that period, whereby impact events/fagnets are chronologically
subtracted from the proper As‐built updated programme.
