Change Order Management

Project change is inevitable so savvy owners plan for the possibility of change in advance. Unforeseen subsurface conditions may arise during excavation, asbestos may be encountered when demolishing an interior wall, the owner's design priorities may shift at the last minute. Contractors often take advantage of changing conditions by requesting additional money.

 

Sometimes the requests are valid but often portions of the cost are already included in the original contract. Sometimes the cost of the change is simply inflated. Brite Ideas Project Consulting will review and analyze the terms of the original contract and determine if a change order is warranted. Our consultants can provide an independent change order estimate to validate costs.  It's important to stay on top of project changes and perform independent estimates because if left unchecked change orders can double the cost of your project.
