Counterproposals written to your contract, not templates

The problem

You have seven days to sign a change order you don't understand.

18% markup. "Miscellaneous project coordination — $12,400." Overtime as required. Is any of it already covered in the base contract? You can't tell from the page you're holding — and the contractor is waiting on your signature.

Signing blind costs twice — the markup now, and the precedent it sets for every change order after it.

The solution

A negotiating shield, not a fight.

1

Markup checked against your contract

Your markup is recomputed against what your contract actually allows. "Your cap is 10%; this item prices it at 18%" ends the argument without one.

2

Scope overlap & vague items caught

"Miscellaneous," "as required," and work already in the base scope are called out — with the contract section that already covers them.

3

Fair-price range + counterproposal

Flagged items are priced against a fair-market range, and the counterproposal is written to your contract's terms.
