Change Order Requests and Change Orders. 7.2.1 Contractor may request adjustments to the Contract Sum or Contract Time or the terms of a Field Order by submitting a written Change Order Request if, and only if, Contractor follows the procedures specified in the Contract Documents, including, without limitation, the procedures set forth in this Section 7.2. A Change Order Request must be submitted within ten (10) Days after the occurrence of the circumstances giving rise thereto. At the City’s election, the Contractor shall submit all Change Order requests on a form prepared by the City. The Change Order Request must clearly describe the circumstances that are the basis of the Change, with reference, to the particular provisions of the Contract Documents involved, and also to all other directly relevant documents, including, but not limited to, related Requests for Information and responses thereto, and Field Orders. A Change Order Request seeking an adjustment to the Contract Sum must identify the proposed basis of compensation, the amount of the requested adjustment, and a detailed breakdown of the amount requested. A Change Order Request seeking an adjustment to the Contract Time must include all information required by the Contract Documents, including, but not limited to strict compliance with Section 8.5 of the General Conditions pertaining to requests for extension of Contract Time. A request for an extension of Contract Time must be accompanied by a "Fragnet" or “time impact analysis," which identifies all critical and non-critical activities affected by the Change Order Request and showing logic ties into all existing affected activities noted on the latest approved, updated Construction Schedule. Change Order Requests must be submitted to the Construction Manager. Incomplete Change Order Requests or requests that are not submitted on the City’s Change Order Request Form will be returned without review.
