Change order preview

Switch the billing mode. Watch the totals follow.

Choose fixed, blended hourly or milestone billing, change the rate, adjust hours per line, then send. This is the draft a PM reviews before anything reaches the client.

 Reporting is limited to the three dashboard views listed in Appendix B.

+Add: on-demand CSV export of shipments with user-selected columns and saved presets.

What goes into every draft

Defensible, specific and easy to say yes to.

01

Itemized deliverable diffs

Each change order shows exactly which SOW clause was expanded, in a red-line style diff, with a plain-English reason additional engineering is required and estimated hours per item. Clients see the agreement, not an opinion.

  • Clause, diff and reason on page one
  • Line items mapped to roles and tickets

SOW § 5.2, revisions

Up to two (2) rounds of revisions per screen.

Up to three (3) rounds of revisions for onboarding screens 1 to 4.

FAQ

Questions PMs and founders ask

TWINJAM drafts it from the flag: the clause diff, the reason extra work is needed, itemized hours and pricing. The PM edits anything, chooses the billing mode and decides whether to send. Nothing is sent to a client without that approval.

From your own history: actual hours on similar tickets and deliverables in Harvest, Toggl Track or Clockify, adjusted for the team assigned. Each estimate shows a range, and the PM can change any line before sending.

Yes. Upload your logo, payment terms and signature blocks, or use your existing DocuSign or PandaDoc template. Exports are also available as branded PDF for clients who sign by email.

The boundary baseline updates so the new work counts as contracted, Harvest budgets can update automatically, and an estimate or invoice line can be created in QuickBooks Online, Xero or NetSuite, depending on your plan.

The opposite is the usual result. Change orders arrive early, are short, cite the agreed contract, and offer a choice of billing mode. Agencies tell us clients appreciate knowing the cost before work starts instead of discovering it at the end.
