TBH was required to review the main works programme consisting of seven sub-programmes in Primavera P6, which totalled more than 50,000 activities.<br \/>\nTBH reviewed the Contractor\u2019s programme, costs and progress claims. This included monitoring slippages and delays on the critical path of the programme affecting key milestones. TBH undertook an earned value analysis on the Contractor\u2019s progress which accurately monitored the Contractor\u2019s overall onsite progress (i.e. not just critical path activities).<\/p>\n<p>TBH also provided assessments and advice regarding the health of the project. This included detailed analysis of performance month by month and analysis of productivity, delay trends and the reporting of Schedule Performance Indices in order to inform the project parties of the potential risk of slippages or delays ahead of time, in order to investigate strategies to mitigate or minimise the risks.<br \/>\nTBH developed a streamlined reporting process, customised for the WGT Project, which delivered relevant information for the key stakeholders to make informed decisions.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The TBH Difference\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>TBH monitored the Contractor\u2019s overall onsite progress to provide the IR with as-bult records for the assessment of progress claim and analysis for future time related claims.
