Common use of VARIATIONS TO THE CONTRACT Clause in Contracts

VARIATIONS TO THE CONTRACT. I understand what documentation is required if changes to the contract (called ‘variations’) are necessary after it is signed (NOTE: It is strongly recommended that such changes be kept to a minimum as they often lead to extra cost and delays. If variations are required by you or the contractor, they must be detailed in writing by the contractor, priced and signed off by you before the variation work commences. The contractor cannot seek extra payment for a variation before the variation work commences. Accurate documentation of variations, is essential to avoid confusion as to exactly what work is included in the contract).
