Construction / PDF & CSV
Construction change order template
Document proposed scope changes, cost and schedule impacts, evidence, and approval status in a printable construction change order worksheet and editable CSV.
What the template records
Use this construction change order template to assemble a change for review and track its decision. Record the original scope, proposed revision, pricing, and schedule impact with the supporting drawing or request. The worksheet keeps requested amounts separate from the approved change recorded in the contract workflow.

How to use it
- Assign a change ID and retain the project, contract, and requester references. Describe what changes and why, with the relevant drawing revision or RFI (include its date). Put exclusions and dependencies in the scope notes so reviewers can compare the request with the original agreement.
- List labor, material, equipment, subcontract, and other priced items with quantities, units, rates, and amounts. Identify the currency and whether tax or markup is included. Record requested schedule days with the affected milestone and supporting schedule reference; a price change does not establish a schedule entitlement.
- Record submitted, pending, approved, or rejected status with the decision date and authorized approver. Preserve requested and approved amounts separately when they differ. Link the executed change and revised contract record after approval, then carry the approved cost-code allocation into project reporting.
Print the PDF at actual size on US Letter paper. The CSV is a blank input sheet with column headers; it has no formulas, macros, or automatic refresh. Open it in Excel or import it into Google Sheets, then save a dated copy with your evidence.
Review before sharing
- Requested and approved amounts remain separate.
- Scope and schedule evidence are retained.
- Executed approval is linked before reporting as approved.
This worksheet records a change request and its review. It does not amend a contract or authorize work by itself. Use the project's required notice, approval, and executed contract process; retain that record alongside the worksheet.
