If the Project Manager is aware something is a compensation event then they should notify that fact to the Contractor. Of course, this could be for a “negative” compensation event where they may be expecting a saving to say an instruction to omit works. It is in the Project Manager's interest to notify this and get it into the system otherwise it could be raised by Contractor several weeks or months later (and they are not time-barred on ones the Project Manager is obliged to notify – numbers 1/4/7/8/10/15/18 in clause 60.1)
Managing Project Manager compensation events

- Project Manager Instruction (if applicable) - select from a list of Instructions that have the status “Compensation event notification to follow”
- Description of the event – a concise yet precise description of the event so that the receiver fully understands why the Project Manager believes this to be a compensation event
- Assumptions— the PM can if necessary add any assumptions for which the Contractor is to the base their quote on.
