We had a meeting today to close out open change order on an existing project.
That's usually a good thing however the Construction Manager thought it was fine to try and take advantage of us and short change us of about $100,000.
We discussed and negotiated what we can but I had to balk at closing out the open change orders at zero dollars. I'm leaving that for the owners of their company and ours to hash out.
While I have a level of freedom to close out these change orders I always defer to my superiors before finalizing the big items. For me anything over a $5,000 loss from our target number is a loss. by that criteria the $100,000 number they wanted to void was unacceptable to me.
