Formula & methodology
Tracking Time & Materials (T&M) on Construction Sites
When field conditions require extra work outside the base bid, a signed Construction Work Order documents Time & Materials (T&M) while the crew is still on-site:
Field Material Total = Σ (Delivered Quantity × Unit Cost) Crew & Equipment Total = Σ (Crew Hours × Loaded Hourly Rate) Approved Directive Total = (Materials + Labor − Discount) × (1 + Tax Rate)
Common questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a construction work order?
A construction work order is a field directive that authorizes specific construction tasks, lists required building materials, equipment, and crew labor hours, and records cost approval.
How is a construction work order different from a purchase order?
A purchase order (PO) buys materials from a vendor or supplier, whereas a work order authorizes labor and materials to execute a physical construction task on-site.
Can I use this for post-construction cleanup as well?
