description It is common for infrastructure projects to experience delays in their execution, when they occur in the construction of drinking water and sewerage projects, there is a delay in the access and availability of basic water and sanitation services for the population, which is why It is important to know the causes that produce them in order to take actions to reduce them. This article presents the results of an investigation carried out on the delays in the construction of potable water and sewerage systems in Ecuador, the actions taken to correct such delays, and the techniques, and construction planning and control tools used. For this purpose, a survey was conducted based on a questionnaire that required the perception of professionals who work in both public and private institutions in Ecuador, linked to construction activities, preparation of studies or inspection of drinking water projects and sewerage. It was identified that the main cause for the delays in these projects is the deficiency in the studies, the technical modifications and the increases in work quantities, that the term extensions is the measure mainly applied to correct the delays and that the Diagram Gantt Bar is the most widely used planning and control technique.

Es común que los proyectos de infraestructura experimenten retrasos en su ejecución, cuando se producen en la construcción de proyectos de agua potable y alcantarillado se genera demora en el acceso y disponibilidad de servicios básicos de agua y saneamiento para la población, razón por la cual es importante conocer las causas que los producen para así, poder tomar acciones que los reduzcan. Este artículo presenta los resultados de una investigación realizada sobre los retrasos en la construcción de sistemas de agua potable y alcantarillado en Ecuador, las medidas tomadas para corregir tales demoras, las técnicas, herramientas de planificación y control de obras utilizadas. Para el efecto, se realizó una encuesta a base de un cuestionario en el que se requirió la percepción de profesionales que laboran tanto en instituciones públicas como privadas del país, vinculadas a actividades de construcción, elaboración de estudios o fiscalización de proyectos de agua potable y alcantarillado. Se identificó, que las principales causas para los retrasos en estos proyectos lo constituyen la deficiencia en los estudios, las modificaciones técnicas y los incrementos de cantidades de obra, que las ampliaciones de plazo es la medida principalmente aplicada para corregir los retrasos y que el Diagrama de Barras Gantt es la técnica de planificación y control mayormente utilizada.
