Contract Authority and Work Deviation Clause Samples

The "Contract Authority and Work Deviation" clause defines who within an organization has the legal power to authorize changes or deviations from the agreed scope of work in a contract. Typically, this clause specifies that only designated representatives or officers can approve modifications, and it may outline the process for requesting and documenting such changes. By clearly establishing authority and procedures, the clause helps prevent unauthorized alterations, ensures accountability, and reduces the risk of disputes over unapproved work or contractual obligations.
Contract Authority and Work Deviation. The Contractor shall thoroughly coordinate with the USACE KO and COR and other government agency representatives that are involved in the work effort. The USACE KO is the only decision authority for contractual matters; consequently, the Contractor shall not take any action relating to this contract at the direction of any other party. Any deviation from the established and approved T.O. PWS, including specific methods and techniques, must be proposed in writing by the Contractor and approved by the KO prior to implementation. Unapproved deviations shall not result in any additional cost to the Government. A KO approved POC may be designated, per T.O., to act as a local authority for contract deviation approval regarding minor scope variations or divergences. Primary contacts for all technical matters will be established within each specific T.O. The Contractor shall not take any action relating to this contract, or any T.O., at the direction of any other party than the KO or COR acting within their written authority. All Contractors, prime and their subcontractor, must comply with lawful orders issued by certain authorized officials. Examples of this would be, but not limited to, orders by an Installation Commander to address emergency directions or a Safety Officer’s prerogative to issue stop work on-site due to safety issues or violations. Various installations have industrial hygiene, security, and range control programs, which have authority to “direct” that certain actions occur or not occur on the installation. Additionally, many installation’s policies and regulations directly apply to Contractors and all Contractor personnel, including subcontractor personnel. Specific circumstances that may apply at any particular installation will be addressed prior to a T.O. commencement at each particular installation. If the Contractor receives any safety or security direction as outlined in this paragraph that will or potentially will impact T.O. execution and/or result in deviations that may have a cost impact, the Contractor must immediately notify the KO and COR.
