0:00 / The finish moved. Did the agreement?

A week slipped on Harbor Renewal, and the first argument is not about the week. It is about what moved: the forecast, or the agreement itself? They are different things, and mixing them up is how disputes start.

0:13 / Keep the reference fixed.

The baseline is the reference the owner accepted. The forecast is what the team now expects. Keep both in view, and every variance has a meaning: seven days later than agreed.

0:25 / Which part of the work moved?

Then look behind the date. The marine foundation works grew by a week and the chain behind them followed. A later finish is the start of a question, not the answer to it.

0:37 / Kairos tracks the baseline's own status.

Kairos tracks the baseline as its own record. Harbor Renewal's latest baseline revision, revision two, is at revise and resubmit, last submitted on the fourth of September. Until it is accepted, the reference everyone compares against stays the version the owner accepted: the twentieth of November.

0:57 / Changing the reference is a decision.

Sometimes the team does propose a new reference plan. That is a decision to record: the proposal, the version, the date it takes effect and who approved it, through the project's own process.

1:10 / Preserve the comparison. Explain the change.

Bring both dates to the next review, explain what moved, and check whether anyone actually authorized a change to the reference. Know sooner. Act faster.
