See which delay claims have the documentation to proceed
Our guided intake asks whether the prospective client was a party to the contract, whether delays caused financial losses, and who was at fault, then collects contracts, schedules, and correspondence before the lead reaches your CRM.
The exact intake your delay and disruption claims leads complete
This is the real 8-question guided intake for Delay and Disruption Claims — the same flow your customers finish before you ever pick up the phone.
What a qualified delay and disruption claims lead should tell you
A claim by a project owner, contractor, subcontractor, or supplier seeking compensation for schedule delays or work disruptions caused by another party, which turns on proving contract privity, causation, financial loss, and supporting documentation.

The questions your team needs answered
Every delay and disruption claims intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Is the construction project located in the United States? | Confirms the project sits in a jurisdiction your firm actually practices in before you spend time reviewing the facts. |
| Were you a party to the project contract (such as the owner, general contractor, subcontractor, or supplier)? | A claimant with no privity to the contract may lack standing to bring a delay claim, so this answer largely determines whether the matter is worth pursuing. |
| Did the project experience delays or disruptions that affected the schedule or your work? | Establishes that an actual schedule disruption occurred, which is the foundational fact any delay claim has to prove. |
| Did those delays or disruptions cause you financial losses (like extra labor, equipment time, overhead, or lost income)? | Delay claims without quantifiable financial losses are rarely worth pursuing, so this answer is the strongest driver of the lead's value. |
| Do you believe someone else on the project caused the delays or disruptions (such as the owner, another contractor, the designer, or a supplier)? | Identifying who caused the delay shapes whether the claim runs against an owner, contractor, designer, or supplier, and how strong liability looks. |
| Do you have a written contract or written change orders related to the work and schedule? | Written contract terms or change orders materially strengthen a delay claim compared to one resting on a verbal agreement alone. |
| Do you have documents that help show the delays and costs (such as schedules, daily reports, emails/texts, invoices, or timesheets)? | A "yes" flags a higher-value, higher-urgency lead you’ll want to reach first. |
| Did the delays or disruptions happen within the last 4 years? | Flags whether the claim may be approaching or past a typical limitations period, which affects how urgently it should be reviewed. |

Built for delay and disruption claims workflows
| Cliont capability | Delay And Disruption Claims application |
|---|---|
| Conditional branching | Skips deeper financial-loss and fault questions when a prospective client answers no to being a party to the contract, so you're not scheduling a consultation on a matter you'd never take. |
| Weighted lead scoring | Weighs financial losses and fault attribution heavily, so claims with quantified costs and an identified responsible party surface as high priority ahead of vaguer inquiries. |
| Document upload capture | Requests the written contract, change orders, schedules, daily reports, and correspondence in the same session the prospective client submits their claim, instead of chasing that paperwork by phone afterward. |
| Timing flag | Surfaces whether the delay occurred within the last 4 years directly on the lead, so aging claims can be reviewed for limitations concerns before you commit consultation time. |
Common delay and disruption claims lead scenarios
Documented subcontractor delay claim
A subcontractor with written change orders, quantified extra labor and equipment costs, and a clear view of who caused the delay submits supporting records up front, which the intake routes as a high-value commercial lead.
Delay claim missing a written contract
The prospective client worked under a verbal agreement and reports real losses but has no written contract or change orders, so the claim scores lower even though the delay itself is credible.
Claim outside U.S. jurisdiction
The project sits outside the United States, so the intake still captures every answer but flags the location for firms that only take domestic construction matters.
Delay older than four years
The disruption occurred well outside the last four years, which the intake surfaces so you can weigh limitations concerns before offering a consultation.
Unclear fault, no documentation
The prospective client experienced delays and believes losses resulted, but cannot name a responsible party or produce schedules, reports, or invoices, leaving a weaker claim that needs more information first.

Delay and Disruption Claims lead-intake FAQs
Does the intake filter out prospective clients who weren't actually party to the contract?
The intake asks directly whether the prospective client was an owner, general contractor, subcontractor, or supplier on the project, which is often the first thing that determines whether they have standing to bring a delay claim at all.
How does the intake treat projects outside the United States?
Project location is one of the higher-weighted answers in the scoring model, so international projects come through with a lower score rather than being hidden, letting you decide case-by-case whether your firm handles them.
What happens if the prospective client has no written contract or change orders?
A missing written contract lowers the score but doesn't remove the lead, since delay claims can still exist on verbal agreements, it just signals the claim may need more work to prove.
Does the intake ask how recently the delay happened?
Yes, it asks whether the delays or disruptions occurred within the last 4 years, which helps you spot claims that may be approaching or past a limitations period before you invest consultation time.
What documents does Cliont collect before the consultation?
The intake asks the prospective client whether they have documents showing the delay and its costs, such as schedules, daily reports, emails or texts, invoices, or timesheets, and requests them alongside the contract and any change orders.
Can this intake distinguish a delay claim from a change order dispute?
This intake is built specifically around schedule delay and disruption questions; prospective clients whose issue is really about unpaid extra work belong on the separate Change Order and Extra Work Claims intake instead.
