Variation Management

VARIATION MANAGEMENT TOOLS FOR BUILDERS IN THE UK

Variations can lead to lost margins and goodwill. BuildHub ensures that every change is thoroughly discussed, priced, approved, and signed off prior to commencement — eliminating disputes later on.

The Problem

WHERE FUNDS GRADUALLY SLIP AWAY

The phrase 'Can you just...' often leads to unpaid tasks and disputes at the end of a project. Informal agreements lack reliability, and seeking additional payment afterward can be uncomfortable at the very least.

The Solution

SETTLED BEFORE CONSTRUCTION BEGINS

BuildHub's 3-Stage Handshake ensures that every variation is thoroughly discussed, suggested, and approved by the client prior to commencing work — all while maintaining a record that resolves any inquiries thereafter.
