FIELD_ORDER.pdf

This is a Field Order template document issued by the City of Carmel, Indiana, for use on public works projects. The form is designed to direct contractors to execute work that interprets existing contract documents or orders minor changes without modifying the contract price or timeline. The Field Order requires contractors to submit itemized proposals to the engineer if any changes to contract price or contract time are deemed necessary before proceeding with the work. If the engineer finds the proposal satisfactory and properly documented, the Field Order will be superseded by a formal Change Order. The document includes spaces for field order number, date, project name, project number, work description, attachments, engineer approval, and owner's representative signature with date.

The Field Order references the 106th and Westfield Water Main Extension project in Carmel, Hamilton County, Indiana, for which sealed bids were accepted through the City's e-Procurement Portal with a bid deadline of 9:00 am on Wednesday, April 15, 2026. The project scope consists of installing approximately 800 feet of water main using either open cut or directional drilling methods. No pricing information, contract value, funding sources, or other financial terms are specified in the Field Order template itself, as this document functions as a directive tool for managing minor work modifications during project execution rather than establishing contractual pricing or payment terms.
