Delays
A delay occurs when an activity takes longer than its
planned duration to complete. For a delay to be
recoverable, it must affect the critical path of the
project by either increasing the duration
of
an activity
along the as-planned critical path or by delaying the
completion of a non-critical activity long enough to
create a new critical path.
