Blame usually falls on the field team. But the root problem is deeper - broken communication and buried data.

Most delays don’t come from bad builds. They come from misaligned inputs.

That “2-week delay” on the job site? It started as a missing approval. Or a wrong version of a budget. Or a surprise funding shortfall someone forgot to flag.

In industries like healthcare, logistics, and manufacturing, these micro-delays cost millions.

Owner’s Reps need one source of truth - not a dozen disconnected systems.

Modern CCDPs solve this. They link schedules, budgets, documents, and dashboards into one living system. Every stakeholder works off the same version. Every risk is visible early. Every update has a home.

If your team is still using spreadsheets, email threads, and separate systems for each phase - the delays aren’t random. They’re baked in.

Alignment isn’t a luxury. It’s the difference between stuck and scaling.
