CHANGE ORDER <br /> INSTRUCTIONS <br /> A . GENERAL INFORMATION <br /> This document was developed to provide a uniform format for handling contract changes that affect Contract Price <br /> or Contract Times . Changes that have been initiated by a Work Change Directive must be incorporated into a <br /> subsequent Change Order if they affect Price or Times . <br /> Changes that affect Contract Price or Contract Times should be promptly covered by a Change Order . The practice <br /> of accumulating Change Orders to reduce the administrative burden may lead to unnecessary disputes . <br /> If Milestones have been listed in the Agreement, any effect of a Change Order thereon should be addressed . <br /> For supplemental instructions and minor changes not involving a change in the Contract Price or Contract Times , a <br /> Field Order should be used . <br /> B . COMPLETING THE CHANGE ORDER FORM <br /> Engineer normally initiates the form, including a description of the changes involved and attachments based upon <br /> documents and proposals submitted by Contractor, or requests from Owner, or both . <br /> Once Engineer has completed and signed the form, all copies should be sent to Owner or Contractor for approval , <br /> depending on whether the Change Order is a true order to the Contractor or the formalization of a negotiated <br /> agreement for a previously performed change . After approval by one contracting party , all copies should be sent to <br /> the other party for approval . Engineer should make distribution of executed copies after approval by both parties . <br /> If a change only applies to price or to times , cross out the part of the tabulation that does not apply . <br /> 00800 -26 <br />
