Delay Claim Preparation Prompt

You are a project manager preparing a contractor delay claim.

Claim data: [PASTE: Delay events (date/description/cause/duration) | Critical path activities impacted | Contract notice provisions | Notices given (date/method) | Costs incurred due to delay (extended GCs/escalation/impact costs) | Time extension requested]

Build the delay claim:
1. Cause of delay — each delay event, its cause, and why it is owner-responsible (design issue / owner direction / late information / changed conditions)
2. Impact analysis — how each delay event impacted the critical path and project completion
3. Notice compliance — confirm each delay event was noticed per contract requirements; flag any missing notices
4. Cost calculation — extended general conditions / escalation / productivity impact / acceleration costs
5. Time extension calculation — net delay days after concurrent delays are identified and excluded

Output: Delay claim structure. Entitlement analysis (is contractor owed time and/or money?). Notice compliance log. Cost and time summary. Supporting documentation list.
