How do I summarise an extension of time (EOT) claim for the project team?
Last reviewed July 5, 2026
Summarise an EOT claim by outlining the reason for the delay, the impact on the project schedule, and the new proposed completion date. Include any relevant supporting documents like correspondence and site reports. Keep it clear and concise for quick understanding.
Key points
- State the delay reason clearly.
- Show how it affects the timeline.
- Include supporting documents.
When summarising an EOT claim, focus on the key elements that the project team needs to know. Ensure you highlight the cause of the delay, whether it's due to weather, supply issues, or other factors. Present the new timeline and any documents that back up your claims, so everyone's on the same page.
