1. OneOffice has provisions to add Pay Items for modifications to the Contract by Supplemental Agreements, Change Orders and for work covered by Standard Specification through Backsheets. BACKSHEET In the Original Bid there will be Pay Item Lines not included that the basis of payment is covered in Standard Specifications, and therefore do not require further negotiations to establish payment. They may include Bituminous Incentive/Disincentive; hold back for erosion control maintenance, among others. Example: Contract does not have pay item for Water for Dust Control. Standard Specification 2130.5 states “The Department will pay for water applied to aggregate surfaces for dust control caused by the traveling public on portions of the project open to traffic as directed or approved by the Engineer at a unit price of $20 per 1,000 gal [$5.45 per cu. m] in the absence of the Contract Pay Item 2130.501.”

16. Scenario; You create a backsheet for Project Liquidated damages of $5000, later the contractor negotiates the damages down to $3,745. Example 1: You originally create a backsheet with an item quantity of 1 and a unit price of -$5,000, and enter a quantity of 1 for a total equal to -$5,000. Then to make the negotiated deducted transaction, you would make an adjustment to that quantity of -0.251. (1.00 - 0.251 = 0.749), (0.749 x -$5,000 = -$3,745). Example 2: Your originally created backsheet has an item quantity of 1 and a unit price of -$1.00, the backsheet total equal to -$1. For payment you would enter a quantity of 5,000 equal to $5,000. Then to make the negotiated deducted transaction, you would make an adjustment to that quantity of -1,255. (5000 - 1,255 = 3,745). (3,745 x -$1 = -$3,745).
