Forensic Scheduling—The Mission

Guide to the Forensic Scheduling Body or KnowledgeIn June 2007, AACE International initiated a paradigm shift when it released Recommended Practice No. 29—Forensic Schedule Analysis (RP 29), indicating that the time had arrived to signal forensic scheduling as the knowledge successor to delay analysis. The Guide to the Forensic Scheduling Body of Knowledge recasts existing and emerging principles, techniques, and methods into a body of knowledge responsive to this standard. To do justice to this mission, the work underpinning the body of knowledge entails a detailed examination of RP 29, the Society of Construction Law Protocol, and many referenced texts and technical papers on delay analysis. The Guide articulates proven forensic schedule analysis guidance responsive to the Daubert standard and brings reasonably provable improvements, new approaches, and innovations to experts.

 

 

This Guide is important to... 

  • Forensic schedulers who drive the dialogue and make the tough calls during a complex analysis.
  • Judges who act as “gatekeepers” and who serve as triers of fact.
  • Attorneys and analysts who present before triers of fact and who meticulously review milestone decisions, explain how they impact, and what may hang in the balance.
  • Academicians who seek perceived improvements, given the mathematical principles underlying forensic scheduling.
  • Triers of fact who sit on court, arbitration, or Board hearings and who potentially impact how practitioners practice their trade.
  • Software purveyors whose perspective can facilitate or hinder forensic schedule analysis.
