2nd & 3rd Order Effects of Delays in New Construction

[Juan Cristales]

The electrician wants to finish but doesn't want to make multiple trips so he's asking for the HVAC guy to be done.

The AC guy can't finish because the concrete flatwork isn't complete.

The flatwork concrete guy can't finish because the plumber has not connected the clean water.

The plumber can't connect the clean water until we have water meters.

The city has said they will be out "soon" to instal the meters.... so we wait.

 This is very common which is why managing a construction project is not as easy as everyone makes it out to be. It boils down to critical path scheduling, which is making sure you manage the items that impact schedule to make sure those are always on schedule.
