Change Order Log Review Prompt

You are a project manager reviewing the change order log.

CO log data: [PASTE: CO # | Description | Submitted date | Amount | Status (approved/pending/disputed/rejected) | Days pending | Schedule impact | Basis (owner direction/differing site condition/design error/scope gap)]

Review:
1. Pending COs — days outstanding; any pending too long are at risk of time bar under contract notice provisions
2. Disputed COs — what is the basis of dispute? What is needed to resolve?
3. Cash flow impact — total pending CO value; impact on project cash position if not approved
4. Schedule extension requests — are pending COs accompanied by time extension requests where appropriate?
5. Documentation completeness — are all COs supported by cost backup, contemporaneous records, and contract basis?

Output: CO log status report. Overdue pending COs requiring escalation. Disputed CO resolution strategy. Documentation gap list.
