Frequently asked questions
What does the Delay Cause Classifier calculate?
Groups schedule delays into scope, resource, dependency, quality, decision, vendor, and external causes. It uses only the evidence and assumptions entered in the form.
How should I choose the input period?
Use one recent, representative period and keep every count, duration, cost, or percentage aligned to that same period.
Is the result a guarantee or professional opinion?
No. It is a planning estimate or decision signal. Validate legal, safety, financial, or technical decisions with an appropriately qualified person.
When should I update this delay cause classifier result?
Recalculate when the scope, evidence, capacity, constraints, prices, dates, or customer segment changes materially.
