Every change has a time cost too.
Change and contract management that prices each change in dollars and days, logs it the day it starts, and closes it before it hardens into a claim. Your change order log becomes a forecast, not an archive.
How changes turn into claims.
Priced in dollars, never in days
A change order settles the cost of the work and stays silent on time. Six months later the same change returns as a delay claim.
Notice missed, rights lost
Contracts set notice periods for a reason. Miss one and a legitimate entitlement becomes an argument, on either side of the table.
A log nobody trusts
Pending, approved, rejected and disputed changes live in different files. The forecast is wrong because the log is wrong.
How we manage change.
- 01
Log it on day one
Every potential change is entered when it is raised, with source, scope, notice dates and responsible party, before anyone argues about price.
- 02
Price cost and time together
Each change gets an independent cost estimate and a time impact analysis against the current schedule, so both are settled at once.
- 03
Track every contract clock
Notice, response and approval deadlines are tracked for each change, so no entitlement is lost through a missed date.
- 04
Negotiate from facts
We prepare the owner or contractor position with quantities, rates and schedule evidence, and support the negotiation.
- 05
Close it out
Approved changes are loaded into the budget and the schedule the same period, so the forecast stays true.
What you get.
Scoped to your project and delivered in native files your team owns.
Every potential, pending, approved and disputed change with value, days, status and responsible party.
A quantity-based estimate for each significant change, with a clear comparison to the submitted price.
The schedule effect of each change, modeled in the current update with a fragnet you can defend.
All notice, response and approval deadlines with their status, so no right is waived by accident.
Total pending exposure in dollars and days, fed straight into the cost forecast and the schedule narrative.
Forty thousand dollars, eighteen days.
A design revision arrives as a modest price. The cost is reasonable, so it gets approved without a time analysis. The work sits on the critical path, and the days surface later as a request for extended general conditions. A same-week TIA settles cost and time together, while both sides still remember the facts.
- $ + days
- Priced together

Questions owners ask us.
What is a time impact analysis?
A prospective analysis that inserts a fragnet for the change into the current schedule and measures the effect on the finish. It is the accepted way to price time.
Do you work for owners or contractors?
Both, though never for both sides on the same project. Each needs an honest, documented position.
Can you take over a change log that is already a mess?
Yes. We reconcile what exists against the contract, correspondence and pay applications, then run the log from there.
