QSFemi:
Good evening all.

I want to write some notes on two terms that are not clearly understood in the context of construction contracts. I've said it here, times without number, that construction job is a contract either an expressly written contract was entered into or word of mouth agreement. As long as there is an offer to execute a job and a consideration (renumeration) for such job, a contract has already been established.

Construction job is very complex and complicated processes, as such there are bound to be issues during the construction stage. One of such prevalent issues is VARIATION. I've heard people use this word loosely, even in wrong context. So, I've make it my duty to define the word this night and differentiate it from another term that's confused for variation which is know as FLUCTUATION.

What's Variation?

According to Joint Contract Tribunal (JCT) 2011 with quantities, the term Variation means:

1) the alteration or modification of the design, quality or quantity of the works including:

(i) the addition, omission or substitution of any
work;
(ii) the alteration of the kind or standard of any of
the materials or goods to be used in the works;
(iii) the removal from site of any work executed or
site materials other than work, materials or
goods which are not in accordance with this
contract.
These are most recurring scenarios on site.

Fluctuation on the other hand refers to change in price of materials during the period of the construction contract.

Typical examples.

A change of window opening in the design to built up block work is an example of variation while the increase in the price of block from 250 during the contract bill preparation to 300 during the construction phase is an example of fluctuations.

NB: Variations in construction projects do not necessarily lead to increase in the construction cost.

These terms are very important in contract administration.

Let me stop here tonight.

Have a pleasant night rest to everybody here.

Thanks for sharing this.

If the contract is a fixed contract that means there would be no variation and 70-80% of the contract value must be paid so that contractor can get all the materials ready to avoid price increase.

But what of additional work added on site and the client is still claiming that the contract is a FIXED contract. What can someone do in this situation?
