to construction claims and<\/b> disputes<\/b>.<\/p>\n Scope of Work, Changed Work or Variations<\/span><\/b> \u2013 Scope of work is the source of many (if not most) of claims, disputes and litigation.\u00a0 Project<\/em> Professionals<\/em> plans to expand this discussion in the near future.\u00a0 Currently, this troublesome area of claims, disputes and litigation, is addressed (indirectly) through project planning and challenges.\u00a0 The two Subject Series<\/a> that are relevant are:<\/p>\n Delay and Acceleration, Time-Related<\/span><\/b> <\/b>\u2013 Next to scope of
