Change-order management

Establishing a consistent documentation of the change-order process is key to ensuring that each change order is properly evaluated. What is a PCO and how can PCOs contribute to a proper review process?

AnswerA PCO is a proposed change order, which should state that all involved subcontractors have reviewed the PCO and recorded in a PCO log. Upon signing, this is the only cost associated with this specific work that should be presented to the owner, minimizing additional costs that are unsubstantiated or not reviewed properly.
