<br />ARTICLE 7 CHANGES IN THE WORK
<br />§ 7.1 General
<br />§ 7.1.1 Changes in the Work may be accomplished after execution of the Contract, and without invalidating the
<br />Contract, by Change Order, Construction Change Directive or order for a minor change in the Work, subject to the
<br />limitations stated in this Article 7 and elsewhere in the Contract Documents.
<br />§ 7.1.2 A Change Order shall be based upon agreement among the Owner, Contractor, and Architect. A Construction
<br />Change Directive requires agreement by the Owner and Architect and may or may not be agreed to by the Contractor.
<br />An order for a minor change in the Work may be issued by the Architect alone.
<br />§ 7.1.3 Changes in the Work shall be performed under applicable provisions of the Contract Documents. The
<br />Contractor shall proceed promptly with changes in the Work, unless otherwise provided in the Change Order,
<br />Construction Change Directive, or order for a minor change in the Work.
<br />§ 7.2 Change Orders
<br />§ 7.2.1 A Change Order is a written instrument prepared by the Architect and signed by the Owner, Contractor, and
<br />Architect stating their agreement upon all of the following:
<br />.1 The change in the Work;
<br />.2 The amount of the adjustment, if any, in the Contract Sum; and
<br />.3 The extent of the adjustment, if any, in the Contract Time.
<br />§ 7.3 Construction Change Directives
<br />§ 7.3.1 A Construction Change Directive is a written order prepared by the Architect and signed by the Owner and
<br />Architect, directing a change in the Work prior to agreement on adjustment, if any, in the Contract Sum or Contract
<br />Time, or both. The Owner may by Construction Change Directive, without invalidating the Contract, order changes in
<br />the Work within the general scope of the Contract consisting of additions, deletions, or other revisions, the Contract
<br />Sum and Contract Time being adjusted accordingly.
<br />§ 7.3.2 A Construction Change Directive shall be used in the absence of total agreement on the terms of a Change
<br />Order.
<br />§ 7.3.3 If the Construction Change Directive provides for an adjustment to the Contract Sum, the adjustment shall be
<br />based on one of the following methods:
<br />.1 Mutual acceptance of a lump sum properly itemized and supported by sufficient substantiating data to
<br />permit evaluation;
<br />.2 Unit prices stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon;
<br />.3 Cost to be determined in a manner agreed upon by the parties and a mutually acceptable fixed or
<br />percentage fee; or
<br />.4 As provided in Section 7.3.4.
<br />§ 7.3.4 If the Contractor does not respond promptly or disagrees with the method for adjustment in the Contract Sum,
<br />the Architect shall determine the adjustment on the basis of reasonable expenditures and savings of those performing
<br />the Work attributable to the change, including, in case of an increase in the Contract Sum, an amount for overhead and
<br />profit as set forth in the Agreement, or if no such amount is set forth in the Agreement, a reasonable amount. In such
<br />case, and also under Section 7.3.3.3, the Contractor shall keep and present, in such form as the Architect may
<br />prescribe, an itemized accounting together with appropriate supporting data. Unless otherwise provided in the
<br />Contract Documents, costs for the purposes of this Section 7.3.4 shall be limited to the following:
