A variation is an amendment to the original contract terms, often involving changes to the scope of work, materials, or timelines. Variations can arise from design changes, unforeseen site conditions, or client requests. Managing these variations efficiently is critical to maintaining project control, avoiding cost overruns, and meeting deadlines.
Common challenges we see managing Variations:
❌ Complex Approval Processes: Securing necessary approvals for variations is cumbersome and requires many status to control.
❌ Crazy Variation Registers: Variation registers can become extremely long and unwieldy, making them difficult for others to use and a risk to compliance.
❌ Payments & Variations: Managing progress payments against variations each month, reconciling the contract, and producing payment certificates and notices requires heavy duplication of effort.
❌ Budget Impacts: Accurately tracking the financial impact of variations on the project budget can be difficult, especially when someones 'SUMIF' formula is missing row data. 😂
❌ Schedule Delays: Variations can cause significant delays if not managed and integrated into the project timeline effectively.
❌ Compliance: Ensuring accurate financial reporting and compliance with contract is complex and never certain.
❌ Reporting: Formatting/transposing spreadsheet tables into charts and visualizations for reporting takes a huge amount of time for an unsatisfactory, out-of-date result.
