the Architect shall determine the adjustment on the basis of reasonable expenditures and savings of those performing
the Work attributable to the change, including, in case of an increase in the Contract Sum, an amount for overhead
and profit as set forth in the Agreement, or if no such amount is set forth in the Agreement, a reasonable amount. In
such case, and also under Section 7.3.3.3, the Contractor shall keep and present, in such form as the Architect may
prescribe, an itemized accounting together with appropriate supporting data. Unless otherwise provided in the
Contract Documents, costs for the purposes of this Section 7.3.4 shall be limited to the following:
.1 Costs of labor, including applicable payroll taxes, fringe benefits required by agreement or custom,
workers’ compensation insurance, and other employee costs approved by the Architect;
.2 Costs of materials, supplies, and equipment, including cost of transportation, whether incorporated or
consumed;
.3 Rental costs of machinery and equipment, exclusive of hand tools, whether rented from the Contractor
or others;
.4 Costs of premiums for all bonds and insurance, permit fees, and sales, use, or similar taxes, directly
related to the change; and
.5 Costs of supervision and field office personnel directly attributable to the change.
§ 7.3.5 If the Contractor disagrees with the adjustment in the Contract Time, the Contractor may make a Claim in
accordance with applicable provisions of Article 15.
§ 7.3.6 Upon receipt of a Construction Change Directive, the Contractor shall promptly proceed with the change in
the Work involved and advise the Architect of the Contractor’s agreement or disagreement with the method, if any,
provided in the Construction Change Directive for determining the proposed adjustment in the Contract Sum or
Contract Time.
§ 7.3.7 A Construction Change Directive signed by the Contractor indicates the Contractor’s agreement therewith,
including adjustment in Contract Sum and Contract Time or the method for determining them. Such agreement shall
be effective immediately and shall be recorded as a Change Order.
§ 7.3.8 The amount of credit to be allowed by the Contractor to the Owner for a deletion or change that results in a
net decrease in the Contract Sum shall be actual net cost as confirmed by the Architect. When both additions and
credits covering related Work or substitutions are involved in a change, the allowance for overhead and profit shall
be figured on the basis of net increase, if any, with respect to that change.
§ 7.3.9 Pending final determination of the total cost of a Construction Change Directive to the Owner, the Contractor
may request payment for Work completed under the Construction Change Directive in Applications for Payment.
The Architect will make an interim determination for purposes of monthly certification for payment for those costs
and certify for payment the amount that the Architect determines, in the Architect’s professional judgment, to be
reasonably justified. The Architect’s interim determination of cost shall adjust the Contract Sum on the same basis
as a Change Order, subject to the right of either party to disagree and assert a Claim in accordance with Article 15.
§ 7.3.10 When the Owner and Contractor agree with a determination made by the Architect concerning the
adjustments in the Contract Sum and Contract Time, or otherwise reach agreement upon the adjustments, such
agreement shall be effective immediately and the Architect will prepare a Change Order. Change Orders may be
issued for all or any part of a Construction Change Directive.
§ 7.4 Minor Changes in the Work
The Architect may order minor changes in the Work that are consistent with the intent of the Contract Documents
and do not involve an adjustment in the Contract Sum or an extension of the Contract Time. The Architect’s order
for minor changes shall be in writing. If the Contractor believes that the proposed minor change in the Work will
affect the Contract Sum or Contract Time, the Contractor shall notify the Architect and shall not proceed to
implement the change in the Work. If the Contractor performs the Work set forth in the Architect’s order for a minor
change without prior notice to the Architect that such change will affect the Contract Sum or Contract Time, the
Contractor waives any adjustment to the Contract Sum or extension of the Contract Time.
