INTRODUCTION<\/b><\/p>\n

A Change Order represents the mutual consensus between the parties on a change to the work, the price, the schedule, or some other term of the contract. As such, a change order must be written out and approved by all parties, which can take time, money, and patience to complete. It acts as an extension of the contract and ensures that all parties understand their new duties and expectations. It details the specific changes the client wants and provides legal notice of any adjustments to the price and timeline that the client should expect.<\/p>\n
