Josh hello again .
This is part of a post on the RCR thread from @No_8 (36533479).
I hope you don’t mind being quoted in relation to a different contract and a different company No_8 ? I have taken the liberty because It seems what you said applies here too.
... “contract accounting is not easy and depending on terms of contract cvash flow can be very lumpy, particularly towards the end of a contract when variations, liquidated damages and other one off items become a focus of both parties attention.”......

Salini is an experienced tunnel builder and presumably factored potential delays and accidents into it’s costings -especially as it was known the sandy ground would present issues.
Whilst we can follow the progress maybe the final reckoning won’t come until 2020 or later if the FAL project ends up being seriously delayed ?
Cheers
