        abstract = {Delays in construction projects significantly impact costs, schedules, and stakeholder confidence. This study critically examines the causes, impacts, and analysis methods of delays, using literature review, stakeholder surveys, and forensic tools. The Window Analysis Method with Primavera P6 was applied to assess critical path shifts and delay responsibilities in a luxury golf and leisure project. Key delay factors included late drawings, permit issues, and BIM discrepancies. Findings reveal that over 70% of delays were avoidable through better coordination and planning. The study promotes best practices like early risk detection and digital project tracking, aligning with SDG 9 and SDG 11 by supporting resilient infrastructure and sustainable urban development.},
