Frequently asked questions

What is construction change order verification?

Change order verification is the review of a proposed construction change and its supporting information to understand the requested scope, pricing and documentation before a decision is made.

How is change order verification different from change order management?

Change order management covers the broader process of handling changes, which may include tracking, communication and approvals. Verification focuses on examining the request and supporting evidence so the decision-maker can assess it.

Why review construction change order pricing?

Reviewing pricing and supporting documents can help a project team identify questions about scope, quantities or costs before deciding how to respond to a request.

How does CO-Ver review change orders?

CO-Ver reviews scope, pricing and supporting documents and identifies differences and open questions.

Does CO-Ver make the final decision?

No. Your team makes the final decision.

Are the savings figures actual customer results?

No. The figures on this preview illustrate an example and the calculator uses selected assumptions.

What documents do you need?

Upload the baseline once: your full set of plans, the original scope of work and the Schedule of Values. Then, for each change order, provide a signed change order request, marked-up drawings showing the change, a cost breakdown (labor, materials and markup), subcontractor or supplier quotes, and supporting documentation such as RFIs, photos or emails. CO-Ver evaluates each change order against the baseline, so the baseline comes first.

What does the AI do and what do people review?

CO-Ver organizes the request, compares it against the project record and surfaces differences and open questions. Your team reviews those findings and makes the final decision.

How long does a review take?

It depends on the size and complexity of the change order and the supporting documentation available for review.

How are contractors involved?

CO-Ver is used by the owner or developer team to review a request. Supporting documentation may originate from the contractor. CO-Ver does not set pricing or approve changes.
