VARIATIONS ISSUED AFTER THE DATE FOR PC

Guys,

The Superintendent issued variations after the approved Date for PC (the Contractor believe the Date for PC should have been extended by the Super).

the Contract provides that the Super can not issue Variations after the Date of PC, which is sensible.

However, what do you think about issuing a Variation after the Date for PC? isn’t that addmission that this date should be extended?

    Clive,

    No, the Variations were issued between the approved (extended) Date for PC i.e. the date the Superintendent believed the project should have been finished and the date of PC - the date in which PC was actually achieved.

    do you see a problem in that? can the Super issue a Variation after the date in which he believed the project should have been completed?

    thanx

    in my opinion and as per the condition of contract the client can issue a Variation at any time befor the date of issuing the taking over cetificate and the contractor has the right to analize the impact of this variation on the time and cost and he can get all his entitlments with the support of the condition of contract and he can prepare and submit hais claim for EOT and assoicated costs.

    Generally Variation Orders can only be issued prior to PC which fairly entitles you EOT and associated additional costs whereafter if such VO issues between or later date then there will be definitely an agreed extended completion date and accordingly you may entitled for EOT or Ld’s. .

    In such circumstances better to seek the contractual provisions for the exact position in this case
