Sarah wants to add a tile backsplash to the bathroom remodel. Instead of a verbal agreement that leads to a dispute later — here's how it's handled.
Mike opens the iOS app and captures photos of the area so HQ has visual context for the added scope.
Novara creates CO-001 with scope details, material estimate at current pricing, and labor. Total: $1,200.
Sarah gets an approval link by email or text. She reviews the scope, sees the price, and taps Approve. Done in 2 minutes.
The change order is timestamped with Sarah's approval. The job total updates to $5,400. No disputes.
