Which document is primarily used to notify the owner that the scope of work has changed and changes to the contract are being requested?
Correct Answer:
Change order request (COR)
Explanation:
When the scope of work changes, a formal change request is used to notify the owner and seek modification to the contract. A change order request documents what is changing, why, and how it will affect cost and schedule, and it is the formal step to obtain the owner’s approval before the contract is adjusted. Addenda are issued to modify bidding documents before award, field orders are on-site directives for small or immediate changes that may not alter contract terms, and the construction contract itself is the base agreement. The change order request leads to a signed change order once approved, making the modification official and enforceable.
