Areas of Practice
Change Control Planning
Whether during the project or after the event, effective change management is a key element to a construction project’s success.
To assist with change management during the running of a project, Walking Baseline Limited undertakes change control planning by understanding the specific contractual processes, utilising the methods in the SCL Delay Protocol (2nd Ed. 2017) and from project experience. This change control planning can be used to assist with planning amended construction activities, pricing variations, forecasting costs and applying for extensions of time.
Although resolving the commercial outcome of changes during a project contemporaneously is the preferred method, often these issues are not resolved until after the event. In these cases, Walking Baseline Limited form an integral part of dispute resolution negotiations to avoid formal dispute proceedings.
Forensic Delay Analysis
Where formal dispute proceedings are already underway or are likely, Walking Baseline Limited provide expert and forensic delay analysis services using industry recognised practices such as the SCL Delay and Disruption Protocol and/or AACE recommended practices as well as considerable experience and formal qualifications in forensic analysis and expert witness procedures.
Project Planning
Walking Baseline Limited offer day-to-day planning services including, but not limited to:
Periodic updated programmes.
Mitigation and value engineering exercises.
Earned value reporting.
Reports and narratives to support all programme submissions.
