An electronic copy of the Contract Documents may be obtained from the City's online solicitation website. Should there be any changes in the scope of work not covered by contingent quantities or other provisions in the contract documents, those changes and the costs resulting there from must be itemized and submitted on the Authorization for Change In Work (ACIW) form, available from the Engineer or his authorized representative. Generally, this involves additions to the scope of work, or to revised conditions under which the work will be completed, but can also include changes that result in reductions in cost. The Contractor must complete and submit this form to the Inspector or authorized representative of the City prior to commencing the added work, or continuing the work under the revised conditions. The City may opt to accumulate the approved ACIWs prior to issuance of a change order, depending on the nature of the change. Failure to submit a completed ACIW in a timely fashion will result in no change order and no additional compensation to the Contractor. The same applies to changes that result in reduced costs. In the case of an emergency, the Contractor and Inspector or authorized representative can document the conditions, in writing, including the agreed-upon course of action, and the Contractor must follow-up with a submittal of an ACIW within 24 hours, or one business day.
