Progress Reports.

Master Consultancy will provide Client with updates via email and phone as work progresses at regularly scheduled times.

Should Client request Master Consultancy to perform services or tasks that are not provided for within the SOW or within this Agreement, or should the project exceed the number of hours allocated in this Agreement or the SOW because of additional work requested by Client, Master Consultancy will immediately notify the Client and the requested work will trigger a change order. Change orders will be subject to additional fees. In such a case, Master Consultancy will provide Client with a written time and cost estimate for the additional work for its review.
