FAQ

Why do I need a system for construction change order management?

In the construction industry, change orders are an inevitable part of the construction process and they can positively or negatively impact your bottom line. If you carefully manage your change orders and record every detail, you reduce your risk and ensure accurate documentation to the original scope of work and adjustments throughout your entire project.

 

While the original contract may include all the right details and specifications, the progress of the job or site conditions may throw a wrench in your plans. That’s why a construction change order management software fully integrated into job costing and operations, reduces your risk while improving transparency and efficiency for all parties involved.

What are some best practices for change order management?

It’s best to plan for changed work in order to avoid the most common causes of cost overruns. Among things you can do to improve your change order processes are:

  • Communicate early to avoid delays and confusion.
  • Have a digital paper trail to protect you if a dispute arises.
  • Standardize how you handle change order work with the help of change order management software.

With transparent policies and clearly defined procedures, you can make change orders more manageable and simpler both for your company and for your client, limiting the amount of extra work.
