On a public project, what is the first thing you should do when the contractor notifies you of an unforeseen condition encountered in the field during construction that will increase cost and time of performance?
1 Tell the contractor to submit an RFI and you’ll look into it when you have time
2 Tell the contractor it’s his problem and to stop whining and wasting your time
3 Agree on a price with the contractor and tell him to proceed with the changed scope
4 Double check the contract documents (drawings and specifications) and determine if the scope is or isn’t part of the contracted scope of work
