Contratos y EjecuciónPregunta 890 de 1605
Overall, the single most effective way for a contractor to prevent and win contract disputes over scope, extras, and payment is to:
a.Use a clear, complete written contract and document all changes with signed written change orders
b.Rely on verbal agreements and good relationships alone
c.Never put payment terms in writing
d.Avoid defining the scope so there is flexibility
Explicación
The most effective protection against disputes is a clear, complete written contract that defines the scope, price, schedule, and payment terms, combined with documenting every change through signed written change orders. Clear writings create reliable evidence and reduce misunderstandings. Relying on verbal agreements, leaving the scope vague, or omitting payment terms invites exactly the disputes that written documentation is designed to prevent, and can also run afoul of license-law writing requirements.
