Delay and disruption get lumped together, but they’re not the same claim.
Delay: the job finishes late.
Disruption: the job keeps moving, but labor gets less efficient, and costs climb.
If crews are stacking, schedules keep changing, or stop-start directions are eating hours, don’t leave it at “the project got messy.” Tie each added cost to a date, event, and record.
