Change Order Management Prompt

Prompt

Establish a disciplined change order process.

[PASTE: Original contract, potential changes, change budget]

Steps: 1) Define change order process 2) Review scope (in vs. out) 3) Request quote from contractor 4) Evaluate cost/necessity 5) Execute written change order 6) Track all changes 7) Avoid scope creep

Output: Change order form template, change order log, approval authority matrix, budget tracking.

Why it works

Formal process prevents "extras" from inflating budget. Clear scope reduces disputes.

Watch out for

Verbal change orders are unenforceable. Require documentation. Cumulative small changes exceed budget.
