When the deviation statement is used

When any item is expected to run over or under its BOQ quantity. Many contracts need the deviation approved before the excess quantity can be paid.

  • Use the anticipated final quantity, not just the quantity executed so far.
  • Give a reason with a drawing or instruction reference for every line.
  • Submit it before the excess is billed. An excess with no approved deviation is usually held.
