    1. The document discusses how project variability is often not accounted for when scheduling project activities, which can lead to poor results. 2. It notes that contracts often wrongly assign responsibility for uncertainty effects caused by variability. 3. The origins of such deficiencies are prior to project execution, during tender preparation. However, their negative effects could be moderated by early detection and agreement between owners and contractors.
