Directive Letters. 14.3.1 GDOT may at any time issue a Directive Letter to DB Team regarding any matter for which a Supplemental Agreement can be issued or in the event of any Dispute regarding the scope of the Work or whether DB Team has performed in accordance with the requirements of the DB Documents. The Directive Letter will state that it is issued under this Article 14.3, will describe the Work in question and will state the basis for determining compensation, if any. Subject to Article 14.1.6, DB Team shall proceed immediately as directed in the letter, pending the execution of a formal Supplemental Agreement (or, if the letter states that the Work is within DB Team’s original scope of Work or is necessary to comply with the requirements of the DB Documents, DB Team shall proceed with the Work as directed but shall have the right to assert a Claim that a GDOT Change has occurred). 14.3.2 The fact that a Directive Letter was issued by GDOT shall not be considered evidence that in fact a GDOT Change occurred. The determination whether a GDOT Change in fact occurred shall be based on an analysis of the original requirements of the DB Documents and a determination as to whether the Directive Letter in fact constituted a change in those requirements.
