REQUEST_FOR_PROPOSAL_CHANGE.pdf

This document is a Request for Proposal (RFP) Change form issued by the City of Carmel, designed to request and document potential modifications to an existing contract. The form provides a structured template for proposing changes to a contract, requiring the contractor to submit a detailed proposal within fifteen (15) calendar days of the request date. The proposal must include four (4) copies of a comprehensive breakdown showing quantities, material costs, equipment expenses, labor, overhead, profit, and any basis for additional time required. The form explicitly states that submission of this request does not authorize the contractor to proceed with the proposed work or halt previously scheduled work, and that a Contract Change Order and Notice to Proceed will be issued upon approval.

The document serves as a formal mechanism for managing contract adjustments, requiring precise documentation of proposed changes and their potential impact on project timelines. Key sections include spaces for describing the proposed change, reasons for the change, and special instructions. The contractor must also specify how the proposed change will affect the project's Substantial Completion and Final Completion dates. The form includes signature lines for an Engineer and an Owner's Representative to review and approve the proposed contract modification, ensuring a structured and transparent process for contract amendments.
