You can use set_max_delay for that. However, if you use it to constraint logic that has other larger paths going through it, those will be broken. It would be best to do report_check -through a_in -through a_out and see the full path. If that constrant can be adjusted its best. If the path is unconstrainted you should figure out why but can use the set_max_delay without fear of unconstraining constrained paths.
