A Task-Order or Open-End contract with a specific value to perform one or more tasks.  At the beginning of the contract there are no tasks and therefore no project value.  Over the life of the contract, individual tasks (projects with associated value and time) up to the value of the contract.

Additional constraints:

• Only one prime contractor which would receive the progress payment (i.e. only one Estimate Set).
• The tasks to be performed by the contractor are have a similar or identical scope of work, for example: roadway repaving, such that the pay items for each task can be the same.

In this scenario, most all operations and interface are identical to Scenario #1 Typical.  However, because there is more than one project (Task Order) associated with the main contract, an additional Task Status section is provided.

Task Status Grid

The Task Status grid displays at the bottom of the Current Estimate tab page and displays the progress payment period details for each project (Task) active during the payment period.

Note: The actual title shown above the Task grid may be different and is configured by the organization.

The Estimate Set Manager can click the Edit Icon in the row to edit the Liquidated Damages Credits/Debits settings for each project (Task Order).

Click the Save button to apply any changes made to the form. This action will automatically trigger a recalculation of the current progress payment.
