Construction Contracts: Top 10 Terms - Changes (Change Orders)
No. 4: Changes
Changes are No. 4 on the list of top ten construction contract terms. Few construction projects go from start to finish without a change. It could be a change in the work, a change in the price, or a change in the schedule. Usually, there's changes to more than one, and often more than one change. Here we're going to cover the different kinds of changes, how your contract affects them, and how they affect your contract.
Generally, changes fall into one of three types:
- Change Orders
- Construction Change Directives
- Minor Changes
