Impel are currently looking at ways in which they can mitigate these delays to achieve an end of October 2018 handover. The power on date based on a new substation programme remains a key project risk. Site visits by Cladtech have raised some quality issues relating to the Curtain Walling. Impel have confirmed that the issues raised are not of a major concern and will progress as planned to mitigate any further delay to this package. Continental have responded to the comments raised and Impel have confirmed that action will be taken where necessary. Section 106 Agreement is now in place. This will allow for any planning conditions to progress to discharge status. The contractor has been asked to provide several detailed programmes that conveys enough detail to allow the client team to monitor progress towards completion. This has not been forthcoming. 1.0 Programme at week 41 of 70 (in line with current EOT Contract Programme) Programme Start Date 22/05/17 Anticipated Completion Date level /07/18 Anticipated Completion Date 9 and 10 31/10/18 Contract End date 31/10/18 2

4 Progress Impel have reported that there are recent delay factors to levels 1-8 programme (phase 1), but they remain confident that 27/07/18 can be achieved. These issues include delay in scaffold erection on the Beetham Plaza elevation which has in turn had an impact on the window installation programme. They are currently looking at ways in which they can mitigate this delay. Impel are also reporting that the delayed scaffold erection could also impact the programme for levels 9 and 10 (Phase 2). Impel believe that this delay could be up to 6 weeks. As with Phase 1 they are currently look at ways in which they can mitigate this delay however Impel have also reported that as the programme for Phase 2 was always fast-paced then mitigating this delay could prove to be challenging.
