CE — Preparing for Other Work
If a CE cancels or changes work that has already been prepared for, the cost of preparation is included in the assessment.
Wasted design, procurement, or preparatory work due to a CE instruction is recoverable.
Demonstrating wasted cost requires records of work done before the CE instruction. Keep detailed records.
