Overview

This course focuses on providing advanced training in conducting schedule forensic delay analysis within Primavera P6. Participants will learn to establish quality baseline programs, explore advanced scheduling scenarios, and apply various delay analysis techniques. The course aims to enhance understanding of delay impacts, improve schedule quality, and effectively present delay analysis outcomes. Participants will gain practical skills in using P6 for delay analysis and creating custom reports. The course is designed for P6 Planners and Schedulers with proficient scheduling experience.

Who should attend

P6 Planners, Schedulers

This course provides in-depth training on how to conduct a schedule forensic delay analysis within P6. It starts with establishing a quality P6 baseline programme in line with current best practices. Different advanced scheduling scenarios will be presented and debated. We will then discuss delay types and introduce the delay analysis techniques, discussing their applicability and use. Finally, we will carry out the various analyses in P6 and examine the subtleties of using P6 in this manner. The course will conclude with a comparison of each technique, and a presentation of a reporting template for schedule impacts.

We will examine various scenarios and apply the delay analysis techniques taught in the class to these scenarios, discussing the results of each method.

The course was exceptional, well run in terms of delivery of information, IT online course but seamless. Very interesting examples of temporary works failures applicable to the businesses we worked in. Break out activities / group examples worked very well and were again well managed by the trainer. Fantastic course, I will recommend to others! Best course I have attended in years!

The trainers knowledge was excellent and I liked his examples and how he could relate them to every day relatable examples that we could all understand. Coming from different industries and sectors his examples were a common ground. It was handled very well virtually and the engagement worked with his questioning and answering
