That isn't really true. A red tag or multiple red tags that cause the project to cease moving forward, if not corrected in a timely manner, can establish a timeline of delay by contractor. For example a red tag issued on "Day 1" and finally resolved on "Day 45" could establish a 45 day delay due to contractor negligence.
I agree that contractors receive red tags and deficiency reports everyday. If resolved in a timely manner (1-3 days) it shouldn't have much of an impact on schedule. Waiting 45 days raises some eyebrows and one could argue the contractor was negligent in not resolving the items in a timely manner.
