Prepared by the Engineers Joint Contract Documents Committee (EJCDC).

The Work Change Directive is used in situations involving changes in work, which, if not processed expeditiously, might delay the project. Those changes, often initiated on site, may affect the contract price or contract time. This document would serve as a field directive to proceed with the work that is expected be included in a subsequent change order.

EJCDC includes the American Society of Civil Engineers, the American Council of Engineering Companies, the National Society of Professional Engineers, and the participation of more than fifteen other professional engineering design, construction, owner, legal, and risk management organizations.

EJCDC documents are delivered in Microsoft Word format (file extension *.doc). Microsoft Word is required if you wish to edit the files.
