this is normal case when you think about the future 

the hardest part the initial planning

It's because not all data is available during planning, and many people struggle to forecast, and use assumptions during planning. An experienced project manager thinks in different ways to come with an accurate plan..

Problems are an integral part of our jobs 

In general the hardest part on planning is the forecasting phase with shortage of accurate information

In another angle, if the JIT (Just In Time) is a basis rule for business then my response would be

how to deal with the delayed actions ?

At the start of the project the planning is done on assumptions but in actual it may not be so because the funds availability could be delayed. The contractor could be incapable to carryout the acitivity within the given time frame. Some time the environmental situation will not be favourable for example rainy season and snowfall.

Maybe it's because they have trouble understanding the request(s) the client makes.

 

Communication skills is a must here for understanding what kind of product the client wants.
