How to Identify & Quantify
the Effects of Cumulative Impact

 

More and more construction claims are including a loss-of-productivity component these days. But too often the claimed amount is not properly substantiated or presented.

This information-packed program will help you learn the definition of cumulative impact, how to identify its presence on a project and how to quantify cumulative impact's effects on labor productivity. Included in this presentation will be a discussion of case law on the subject of cumulative impact, examples of how to utilize the Ibbs Study, as published in the Mechanical Contractors Association of America, Inc.'s management manual, to quantify the effects of cumulative impact on a construction project and a general discussion of construction labor loss of productivity.

This session will help you:

  • Understand the subject of cumulative impact and why it's important
  • Become familiar with change and its impact on productivity
  • Review loss of productivity: cost and schedule consequences
  • Learn how to quantify loss of productivity with the latest, proven techniques:
    • MCAA factors
    • Ibbs curves
    • Measured mile concepts
  • And much, much more!
