Thanks Rav
The new scope are variations (includes new things to be done and increased in quantities)... my guess is that the contractor has change its methodology as they see that the previously conceived plan no longer applies :-)
any thoughts from others???
Contractually, if the new tasks are inserted are not in the original scope of work, then consultant is not supposed to approve this new programme.
But, if all these tasks are there in the original scope, and he has not added these part of works earlier into program, then he is in breach of contract as per contract he has to submit a program covering full scope of works.
Its a very tricky situation and consultant will take all the advantage of it, considering the situation which favours him.
If i might be the contractor, then I might have kept the oroginal task as it is and the new scope (and Quantities) to be shown as EOT. Even though this is not ethically correct, but contractor has to do this.
It also depends what clause 14.1 says. (Revised Program)
