What is tracked in the Issues Book during the construction phase?

The Issues Book is a critical tool used during the construction phase to document and track change orders and contractor problems. This record is essential because it allows project managers and stakeholders to have a clear overview of all deviations from the planned work, whether they are modifications in scope, schedule adjustments, or problems faced by contractors. By maintaining this information in one centralized location, teams can efficiently address issues as they arise, facilitate communication among project stakeholders, and ensure that resolution strategies are implemented in a timely manner.

This focused approach to tracking change orders and contractor problems helps to maintain project momentum and prevent potential delays or budget overruns that could occur if issues are not monitored and managed effectively. Thus, the Issues Book serves as a proactive measure to manage the construction phase and ensure the project remains aligned with its objectives.
