Section 104.03.03 Changes
EXAMPLE #1:Proposal calls for 1,000 LF of curb and 200 LF were designated as
IWD. A COP increases the item by 500 LF.
Proposal Qty = 1,000 – 200 = 800 LF

Section 104.03.03 Changes
EXAMPLE #3:Proposal calls for 5,000 CY of DGABC at $10/CY. A COP
decreases the item by 3,000 LF.
The remaining 2,000 CY is eligible for renegotiation. However,the total cost can not exceed 75% x 5,000 x $10 = $37,500 (or $18.75/CY)

Section 104.03.03 Changes
If a major change results in a renegotiated price, the RE willdetermine the locations of which work is to be performed at therenegotiated price and which locations of work is performed atthe bid price.
Subsequent increases in quantities are performed at therenegotiated price. However if subsequent increases exceed25% of the Proposal Qty and 25% of the adjusted qty, theprices may be re-renegotiated.
When the locations of the work to be performed at arenegotiated price are established, subsequent decreases inquantities of work at the bid price will not affect the quantity of work at the renegotiated price.

Section 104.03.03 Changes
EXAMPLE #4:The Proposal calls for 800 LF of Beam Guide Rail. A COP increases the quantity 450 LF to 1,250 LF.
200 LF of the increases is paid at the bid price, $ PB1 and 250 LF is paid at a renegotiated price $P R1.
A subsequent COP further increases the quantity 300 LF to 1,550 LF.
200 LF is paid at the renegotiated price $ PR1, , and 100 LF would be eligible for a second renegotiated price $ PR2 Because it exceeds 25% of the Proposal (300 > 25% x 800= 200) and 25% of the quantity at the established price for $ PB1 (300 > 25% x 250).

If a subsequent COP decreases the item by 300 LF. The quantitydesignated to be paid at $ PR1 is not effected even thought the overall qtyis now less than 125% of the Proposal. It is still paid at the renegotiatedprice. The quantity is only effected if the COP specifically decreases.
