Construction Change Directive (CCD) Clause Samples
A Construction Change Directive (CCD) is a contractual mechanism that allows an owner to unilaterally direct changes to the scope of work during a construction project, even if the contractor and owner have not yet agreed on adjustments to cost or schedule. In practice, a CCD is typically issued when urgent changes are needed and there is not enough time to negotiate a formal change order; it instructs the contractor to proceed with the specified modifications while the parties continue to negotiate the financial and time impacts. The core function of a CCD is to prevent project delays by enabling work to continue while outstanding issues are resolved, thereby maintaining project momentum and addressing unforeseen circumstances efficiently.
