Change in Construction Project

Change and why


Changes are inevitable in construction projects. Change management is a critical problem faced by the construction industry. The effort of managing change orders has imposed a huge burden on project management.
Changes are identified as the major cause of project delay, cost overruns, defects, or even project failure. More seriously, playing games on changes cause serious ethical problems and disputes in the industry.

Change and why

The complication, during a construction project, many decisions have to be made, often based on incomplete information, assumptions and personal experience of the construction professionals. Change is a common denominator in all construction projects, though the size, scope, and complexity of projects may vary significantly from case to case.

Kinds of Changes
Re-work Change order Construction Change Directive (CCD)

Summary of construction changes

Re-work
Re-doing a process or activity that was incorrectly implemented Quality defects, Variance, Negligence and poor design Pure waste

Change order

Common to most projects Changes that are generally unanticipated Scope of change from the owner, design/technological change from the architect Cost and /or time changes caused by supplier problems Design errors Material and operational failures Unsatisfactory site conditions To be negotiated case by case and require a documented agreement

CCD
Change in the contract scope issued by owner Disputable change orders

Change and why
