Last reviewed July 5, 2026
Look for the start date, duration of the delay, and any completion date mentioned in the notice. Check if the notice references any specific events or conditions causing the delay. Cross-reference this with your project schedule to assess the impact.
Key points
- Identify start date of the delay.
- Note duration and completion date.
- Cross-check with project schedule.
Delay notices can be tricky. They often include key dates buried among other details. Focus on the specifics like when the delay starts and ends, and any events linked to it. This'll help you manage timelines and communicate effectively with the team.
