Construction projects face delays and disturbances that could be caused by one of the contracting parties, both of them, or beyond their control. Proving the delay needs a significant effort to introduce all details, documents, and records which explain the causes of the delays. The contractor needs to submit a claim, whether it is extension of time (EOT) claim or any claim with an adequate definition, causation, liabilities, analysis of delays to get an extension of timerelated to the risk event. Claims preparation processes need to be collected and documented daily throughout the project phases, especially during construction phases. Lean Construction, with its common technique, the last planner system (LPS), and building information modeling (BIM) have significant synergies and can bring benefits when implemented together to support the preparation of the extension of time (EOT) claim. Building information modeling used as a digital platform to facilitate communication between the project team, improve project performance, and implement the last planner system (LPS) phases effectively. (LPS) is enhancing the coordination within the project team.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
