This Construction Change Events & Notice Letters Training shows site admins and project assistants how change value is protected on a construction project: by logging every potential change the same day, tracking notice periods and sending a factual notice before the price is agreed.
All examples come from one running case: an industrial plant extension for an animal health manufacturer that needs more capacity for its dog dental care chews (illustrative).
Use it as a change management training PowerPoint for construction, a change order and notice letter training deck, or a refresher for site office teams, together with the included change event and change order log in Excel.
The module covers:
• What a change event is and where change comes from (site conditions, owner requests, design changes, RFI answers)
• Why value is lost at capture, not at approval
• The capture workflow from identified to executed, and two logs linked by one ID
• Days open and the notice period, and the link from an RFI answer to a change event
• Why the notice goes out before the price, the five parts of a notice letter and factual wording
What's included:
• 25-slide editable PowerPoint in three parts, with speaker notes, trainer tips and solutions
• Three exercises (spot the change events, log them in Excel, draft a notice), as a trainer edition with sample solutions and a participant edition
• Excel tool T1 Change Event & CO Log, as participant version and trainer solution
• An 'adapt to your company' slide and a module recap
The primary document is the slide deck. The exercise workbook (PDF) and the Excel tool are provided in the secondary ZIP file.
This module is part of the Construction Site Administration Course: 12-Week Trainer Kit, which covers twelve weeks from the site admin role and document control to procurement, change events, submittals and RFIs, the site office, reporting, turnovers and closeout, with eight Excel tools, exams and a trainer guide.
How this module was created: I created this course myself, based on my own professional experience, knowledge and research. AI tools supported me with translation, slide design and formatting. All content was written, checked and approved by me.
Please note: companies, people and amounts in the case are illustrative, and amounts are in USD. The module gives no legal advice; contracts, laws and company rules differ by country and always take precedence. The license covers use by one trainer or one organization.
