ConsensusDocs 202 is the industry-standard change order form used to document and formalize modifications to the original construction contract. When a project requires adjustments in scope, schedule, or cost, this document ensures those changes are clearly outlined, mutually agreed upon, and legally binding between all parties involved.

Change orders are a common aspect of construction project management. Whether due to unforeseen conditions, such as severe weather, design modifications, inaccurate initial estimates, or changes in project scope, ConsensusDocs 202 helps maintain clarity and accountability throughout the construction process. It ensures that changes do not disrupt progress or lead to misunderstandings that could escalate into disputes.

This form provides a structured way to capture critical details such as the nature of the change, its impact on the project timeline, cost implications, and any related conditions or responsibilities. Importantly, both parties—typically the owner and contractor—must sign the document to affirm their agreement, promoting transparency and legal enforceability.

As the most frequently used administrative document in the ConsensusDocs library, the 202 Change Order Form plays a vital role in construction contract administration. It streamlines project communication and decision-making by offering a reliable, standardized format for processing contract modifications.

Using ConsensusDocs 202 not only supports effective project tracking and budget control but also fosters positive collaboration by clearly defining expectations when changes arise. It reduces the risk of future disputes and ensures that construction projects continue moving forward with aligned objectives and shared understanding.

For construction professionals looking to manage scope changes efficiently while maintaining compliance and strong relationships, ConsensusDocs 202 is the go-to solution for formalizing project adjustments.
