Railway France

Storytelling
This case has to be considered in parallel with the precedent one. The Employer introduced many modifications in a railway project which resulted in amendments because of some technical uncertainties. However those amendments did not present proper figures. Thanks to critical path analysis and a careful analysis of the critical events, first, the amendments were rectified; secondly, following events and changes could be anticipated. A new time schedule was established as well as a new assessment of costs. Argos was able to improve the situation in emphasizing the difficulties met.  Then both parties decided to extend the contract.
