On behalf of a mechanical contractor, analyzed an $11 million claim against an engineering and construction contractor involving the installation of new pollution control equipment on a power plant project.

Assessed the delays a contractor experienced on a project. Provided delay analyses and opinions regarding owner-furnished engineering drawings and materials that the contractor identified that caused impacts to its ability to deliver the project on time and on budget. The assessment identified which delays were attributable to the owner’s actions or inactions and quantified the number of days for which the contractor was entitled to an extension of time.

Provided claims analysis and cost and schedule analyses. Prepared a rebuttal report regarding insurance claims related to defective flue gas desulfurization systems on four coal-fired power plant projects.

Performed schedule delay expert witness services with respect to a $34 million dispute between an electrical power generator and a consortium of power distributors. Issues involved the analysis of concurrent delay. Services included a delay analysis with respect to a forced outage resulting from an alleged force majeure event. Identified and quantified schedule impacts that resulted from accelerating the start of planned outage work that the power plant operator moved to be in parallel with necessary work associated with the forced outage. Provided testimony that addressed impacts to the outage affected by moving the start of planned outage work to be performed concurrently with forced outage work.
