CHANGES AND CHANGED CONDITIONS Clause Samples
The "CHANGES AND CHANGED CONDITIONS" clause defines the process for modifying the terms, scope, or requirements of a contract after it has been executed. Typically, this clause outlines how either party can request changes, the procedures for documenting and approving such changes, and how adjustments to price, schedule, or deliverables will be handled. For example, if unforeseen site conditions arise during a construction project, this clause would govern how those changes are addressed and compensated. Its core function is to provide a structured mechanism for managing and resolving modifications, thereby reducing disputes and ensuring both parties are treated fairly when circumstances evolve.

If, during the course of the work herein contemplated, the need to change the Scope of Work or the Work Schedule should arise, for whatever reasons, whichever party first identifies such need to change shall notify the other party in writing. The representatives of the parties shall meet within seven (7) working days of the date of such notice to discuss the need for change so identified and to set the proposed action to be taken by the parties. A change in the Scope of Work may also result in a change in the compensation amount. Compensation changes shall be based upon the Consultant Budget and Fee Schedule (Exhibit C) attached hereto.
