Our Home Market
Florida Construction and Scheduling Consultants is happily headquartered in beautiful Melbourne Beach — making the Space Coast our home market. From Titusville and Cape Canaveral to Cocoa, Melbourne, and Palm Bay, we serve Brevard County's attorneys, owners, contractors, and insurers with the same forensic scheduling and expert witness practice we provide statewide, without travel time or travel billing.
The region is in the middle of a generational construction boom: aerospace manufacturing and launch-support facilities, defense-contractor campuses, Port Canaveral expansion, and the residential and commercial growth that follows all of it. Fast growth means compressed schedules, strained trades, and — inevitably — disputes.
Expert Witness Services for Brevard County Attorneys
We support counsel in the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit (Brevard and Seminole counties), the Middle District of Florida, and in arbitration:
-
Schedule delay and disruption claims on industrial, aerospace-support, and commercial projects
-
Coastal residential and condominium disputes, including sequencing and completion-date claims
-
Contractor default, termination, and cost-to-complete analysis
-
Lost productivity claims driven by trade shortages and out-of-sequence work
Industrial and Aerospace-Adjacent Projects
Facilities built for aerospace and defense users are unforgiving of schedule error: specialized MEP systems, clean and controlled environments, long-lead equipment, and security or access constraints that ordinary schedules never account for. Delay disputes on these projects turn on procurement records and schedule logic, and they reward an expert who has spent a career reading both.
CPM Scheduling for Space Coast Projects
We provide baseline schedule development, monthly updates, and time impact analyses for Brevard County projects of every type — and because we are local, schedule review meetings, site walks, and progress verification happen in person, on short notice. A schedule maintained with discipline during the project is the best claims-avoidance tool that exists; it is also your best exhibit if a dispute becomes unavoidable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does hiring a local Space Coast expert matter?
Site visits, progress photos, and in-person schedule reviews happen within hours rather than weeks, and there is no travel-day billing attached to any of it. Local presence also means firsthand familiarity with the regional trade market and its capacity constraints — often the real story behind a productivity claim. On top of that is top talent — Don Carlow is among the top construction scheduling consultants in Florida and nationally.
Do you work on aerospace or defense-related facility disputes?
We work on the construction side of these facilities — schedule, sequencing, procurement, and delay — where the analysis rests on the project record. Specialized process scope and security constraints make disciplined scheduling more important on these projects, not less.
Can you help a project that is currently in trouble?
Yes, and sooner is better. A recovery schedule assessment on a live Brevard County project — what is actually driving the completion date, and what recovery is realistic — frequently prevents the dispute entirely. We can typically be on a Space Coast site within hours.
