Why it matters

Good claims die on paper, not on the merits

Late notice, a schedule left unanswered in the meeting, a position taken too early. Most small GCs and subs have no scheduler on the letter or in the room. We fill that seat.

01A missed or weak notice can sink a real claim before anyone reads the merits
02A second opinion keeps you from overplaying a weak position or signing away a strong one
03Someone who reads schedules for a living changes the OAC schedule discussion

Pairs with the deeper analysis: change orders and time impact analysis and subcontractor schedule protection.

What we do

Notice, second opinion and position, grounded in the schedule

Practical advocacy from the letter to the meeting.

Contractual Notice Support Notice

Timely written notice of delay, change and impact, grounded in the schedule and the contract.

Second Opinion Review

An independent read of your schedule, delay or claim, so you know where you stand before you commit.

OAC & Schedule Meeting Support Representation

We prepare you for, or attend, the owner and design team meetings where the schedule is argued.

GC Schedule Change Review Protection

For subs, we document where the GC changed agreed logic, compressed your durations or absorbed your float.

Delay & Impact Documentation Record

The contemporaneous record behind your notice and any later request.

Position & Strategy Options

Schedule facts turned into a defensible position, so you negotiate from the record, not frustration.

How it works

On your side, grounded in the record

01

Tell us what is happening

What has you exposed: the delay, change, meeting or GC move. A quick call to understand it.

02

We read the schedule and the contract

Where you stand, the notice required, and the entitlement the schedule supports.

03

We put it in writing

Notice letters, impact documentation and the schedule record, on time.

04

We back you in the room

We prep you for the OAC or schedule meeting, or attend it.

05

You stay in control

We explain the schedule findings and options. You decide how to respond.

Owner & federal compliant

Notice and entitlement, built to the federal contract

On VA, USACE and NAVFAC work, notice and schedule submittals drive entitlement. A missed notice or weak record can end an REA before it starts. We build the notice, documentation and schedule record to the agency spec.

Advocacy FAQ

Notice and advocacy questions

What is notice support, and why does it matter?
Timely written notice of a delay or change, grounded in the schedule and contract. Weak or missed notice sinks claims before the merits come up.
Are you an owner's representative?
No. Here we work for the contractor, GC or sub. Owners get the same independence through our owner schedule review work.
Can you attend OAC meetings for us?
Yes. We prep you or attend ourselves, so the schedule position doesn't go unanswered.
I am a sub and the GC changed my logic. Can you help?
Yes. We document changed logic, compressed durations and absorbed float, and put it on the record.
When should I bring you in?
As soon as the delay, change or GC move shows up, while notice is still timely. Waiting weakens a strong position.
What does it cost?
Flat fee or by the engagement, quoted up front. No retainer needed for a second opinion.

Exposed on a delay, a change, or a GC move?

Send the situation and your schedule. We quote within one business day and tell you where you stand and what to put in writing.
