P6-FDA-001 - Using Primavera P6 for Schedule Forensic Delay Analysis - course information

Sep 25, 2026

Oracle Primavera P6 for Schedule Forensic Delay Analysis is a 2-day instructor-led training designed for P6 planners and schedulers. The course focuses on building a quality CPM baseline programme aligned with best practices, then applying and comparing advanced schedule forensic delay analysis techniques in P6. Participants learn delay types, including As-Planned vs As-Built, Impacted As-Planned, Collapsed As-Built, and Time Impact Analysis, and practice capturing schedule impacts and presenting results with tailored reports and templates.

BOOK THIS COURSE ORACLE PRIMAVERA P6 FOR SCHEDULE FORENSIC DELAY ANALYSIS P6-FDA-001: Using Primavera P6 for Schedule Forensic Delay Analysis 2 DAYS PREREQUISITE Proficient experience with scheduling in P6 is required, and/or past attendance at Introduction to P6 course, P6-001. DELEGATE PROFILE P6 Planners, and Schedulers TRAINER PROFILE The course will be delivered by an instructor with decades of experience in Planning & Scheduling utilising Primavera P6 in the field on live Projects and familiar with Schedule Forensic Delay Analysis (FDA) COURSE LENGTH 2 days (09.30am till 4.30pm) Payment must be received in full upon registering in order to secure your place This course provides in-depth training on how to conduct a schedule forensic delay analysis within P6. It starts with establishing a quality P6 baseline programme in line with current best practices. Different advanced scheduling scenarios will be presented and debated. We will then discuss delay types and introduce the delay analysis techniques, discussing their applicability and use. Finally, we will carry out the various analyses in P6 and examine the subtleties of using P6 in this manner. The course will conclude with a comparison of each technique, and a presentation of a reporting template for schedule impacts. We will examine various scenarios and apply the delay analysis techniques taught in the class to these scenarios, discussing the results of each method.
