Contractor's Guide To Change Orders is designed to give you valuable guidance and working tools for increasing profits. Everything you need for lean, advantageous contract interpretation is in this single-volume workbook. You will be able to uncover all the “hidden” cost items for which you are entitled to receive compensation. What the architect would have previously “clarified,” for example, the owner will now process and pay for as a change order.
Each chapter contains step-by-step procedures, checklists, full-sized forms, and word-for-word letters that combine to make up the blueprint for the successful submittal of change orders. You will get all the information you need to increase your effectiveness in requesting change orders, while simplifying your work and boosting your change order approval rate and recovery. p.p.382
