Maintaining a Contract Project

A contract inherits all of the projects that were part of the proposal from which it was transitioned. At the contract stage, these are called contract projects. As the work on a contract progresses, the agency sometimes determines that additional work not originally estimated in the proposal, but which logically would be part of the current contract must be performed. In these circumstances, a new contract project is added to the contract to manage the new work.

The Contract Project Summary contains all the information currently recorded for the contract project. To access this component, navigate to the Contract Project Overview and select Open from the Actions menu on the contract project row.

The Contract Project Summary opens on the General tab, where you can view or change the following information:

Click in a field and add, change, or delete information as required. When you are finished, click the Save button. The system displays a message to confirm that your changes were saved in the database.

Note: Once project items have been assigned to the project, you can no longer change information in the Project Spec Book and Unit System fields.

To add a new contract project, select Add New from the Actions menu on the component header (see Adding a Contract Project).
