There are two key components to the successful management of variations:

• Managing variations from a financial perspective
• Administering variations from a project and document perspective

Integrated with cost centre budget allocations and forecasting, subcontracts and head contract progress claims, Jobpac Variation Management provides you with a powerful and flexible tool to give you control.

Variation Information

Jobpac gives your adminstrators a clear picture of variations as they move through the stages from notification to submission to approval. Variations - internal or external - can be traced by type or by package number, or by reason.

If a variation is related to a subcontract, your administrators also get a clear view of the notification to the subcontractor; the subcontractor's submission price and your subcontractor variation price approval.

Variation Approval

Variation approval can be a complicated process. Sometimes you need to start the work even if the variation is unapproved. At other times, your variation may be approved but at an adjusted price. And sometimes a variation is not approved and work must cease. Jobpac supports any of these day to day scenarios, letting you process either approved or unapproved variations.

Valuing Variations

Jobpac is designed to help you manage a variation valuation that may differ from your claimed value. Jobpac Variation Management gives your adminsitrators the flexibility to value the work completed on the variation.

Variation Notices

A number of notices or forms are produced with a variation. Jobpac provides your adminstrators with a convenient set of standard notices for clients and subcontractors. These include:

• Variation Notice (to client)
• Subcontract Variation Memo (Price Request)
• Subcontract Variation Acceptance
• Variation Price Submission (to client).
