million dollars of extras it was invoicing for. In many cases, there
was no evidence the work had been done at all other than the prin-cipal’s
word, which the Court generally did not accept as sufficient
to prove these claims. In other cases, there was no documentary ev-idence
that the work had been requested. In the end, only $57,397.86
was granted to Impact.
This case illustrates the importance of carefully documenting ev-erything
that takes place in the course of a construction contract.
Often in the rush to meet deadlines, contractors will neglect to keep
detailed records of what they are doing. This can be a costly mistake.
Conclusion
The consequences of a mismanaged contract can include under/
overpayment, litigation expenses, unsuccessful litigation and dam-aged
relationships. Keep good records and be aware of the risk areas
and ambiguities in your contract. Parties of complex contracts are
encouraged to seek out professional contract management services.
Legal professionals can work with you on a number of fee arrange-ments
to ensure that you are properly covering your bases every
step of the way.
