A project manager is writing to an authorized variation to request changes to a construction project due to unforeseen circumstances. The initial limestone material needs to be replaced with another material to ensure leveling and geometry equality at each corner, requiring special tools and additional labor and time. The client also requests different door systems, which will increase the total cost of the project. Weather conditions may impact the project schedule, and the project manager must consider these factors in planning and management. The letter concludes by emphasizing the importance of quality, cost, and timeline considerations in construction projects.
