County Initiated Changes Clause Samples
The "County Initiated Changes" clause grants the county the authority to make modifications to the terms, scope, or requirements of a contract or agreement. In practice, this means the county can request adjustments such as changes in deliverables, timelines, or procedures, often through a formal notice or amendment process. This clause ensures the county retains flexibility to adapt the agreement to evolving needs or circumstances, while also providing a structured method for implementing and documenting such changes.
County Initiated Changes. When County requests a change to the Work, County shall direct the Architect to issue a numbered Proposal Request (PR) to Contractor. It shall include a detailed description of proposed changes in the Work and may include supplemental or revised drawings and specifications.
18.2.1.1 A request issued by County may be either a directive to perform the Work described therein (this request shall only be issued if in its sole discretion deems the Work thereof to be required by an exigency situation or otherwise not suitable to the delay inherent in requesting Contractor’s response) or, the request by County may be designated as one for information only. In such a case, Contractor should not consider a request as instructions either to stop work in progress or to execute the proposed change. However, Contractor should inform County of any impact to work or schedule.
18.2.1.2 Contractor shall respond to the latter type of request with a written, itemized proposal within 14 calendar days of receipt a Proposal Request.
County Initiated Changes. County may, without notice to the sureties, make alterations, deviations, additions to, or deletions from this Agreement; increase or decrease the quantity of any item or portion of the Work; expand, contract or otherwise change the Agreement Time; delete any item or portion of the Work; and require extra Work pursuant to an Amendment or Agreement Modification issued in accordance with this Agreement.
18.2.1. The Developer shall perform any and all changes made by County pursuant to an Amendment or Agreement Modification, unless specifically provided otherwise at the time the change is ordered, subject to Developer’s rights under Article 20.
18.2.2. In the case of any such changes, County reserves the right to furnish all or portions of associated labor, material, and equipment, which the Developer shall accept and use without payment for costs, markup, profit, or otherwise for such County-furnished labor, materials, and equipment.
