Change order questions
What does a construction change order do?
A change order records work added to or changed from the original agreement, including the scope, price impact, schedule impact, and approval.
What should a change order include?
Identify the project and parties, describe the changed work precisely, state added or reduced cost, record schedule impact, and obtain approval before the changed work proceeds.
Does a change order replace the construction contract?
No. It supplements the underlying agreement for a specific change. Review the original contract and any applicable legal requirements before relying on it.
