Change orders is a common problem within the construction industry. A change order is a change within the original plan for the project which might cause changes in terms of delaying the project and add to the original budget so the project becomes more expensive than first estimated, it is therefore desirable to reduce the amount of change orders within a project. A change order might occur both in the design and construction phase of a project. The earlier the change the better as the changes are more easily integrated in the project and therefor it reduces the risk of delays and exceed projects.
There are several ways one might be able to reduce the amount of change orders. For instance BIM and virtual reality will make the building owner able to see the building before it is built and thereby make sure it looks like what he or she wants it to.
