Build your internal business case

0:00 / Some work has to happen in order.

You cannot inspect a pier before it is built, and you cannot reopen the berths before it is inspected. Those jobs form a chain, and when a job in the chain takes longer, the reopening moves with it.

0:13 / The critical path drives the finish.

The critical path is the longest connected chain to the finish. On Harbor Renewal it runs from the marine foundation works through the pier structure to substantial completion. Seven days lost on foundations is seven days lost on reopening.

0:30 / Other work has room to move.

Other work has room. The temporary access works can finish a little later without touching the reopening date. That room is called float, and it comes from the logic and calendars in the plan, not from anyone's opinion.

0:44 / Float used is not float left.

Take the marine foundation works: four days of float in July, none in August. Four days have been used, nothing remains, and the activity is now critical. The change and the amount left answer different questions, and reviewers need both.

1:00 / Kairos reports both.

Kairos reports both for every changed activity. The marine foundation works: seven days later, float change minus four, now critical. The pier structure: seven days later, float unchanged, still critical.

1:15 / Know where timing matters most.

Critical path and float tell you where timing matters most, and where it does not yet. Check them on the current plan, every update. Know sooner. Act faster.
