Open the addendum register
Create a row with the issuer number and release date. Record receipt time and distribution owner.
Save the original package in a controlled location. For construction addendum tracking, use this related guide as context while keeping the current project documents in control.
Inventory changed files
List new, revised, replaced, and voided drawings. Capture specification and bid-form revisions. Compare narratives and clouds with the files.
Assign estimate impacts
Assign each impact to one person and due time. Link changes to takeoff, quotes, labor, and options.
Give every no-impact decision a reason. When reviewing construction addendum tracking, consult AACE International for cost-engineering context, then apply it through the contractor’s own standards.
