## What is a T&M ticket?

A record of the labor, equipment and materials used on work outside the contract, written the day the work happens and signed by the owner’s representative. It is the evidence behind a time-and-material change order.

## Should a T&M ticket carry prices?

No. It records quantities: hours, units and equipment time. Prices belong on the change order the ticket supports, under the contract’s rates. A ticket carrying a number the owner’s rep did not agree to is one they decline to sign.

## Why get it signed the same day?

Quantities agreed the day the work happened are rarely argued later. A ticket assembled at the end of the month from memory is an assertion, and the hours on it are the first thing disputed.

## Why is standby its own column?

A crew on site that could not work is a different cost from a crew working. Added together, the whole number gets argued. Kept apart, each can be priced under the contract.

General information, not legal advice. Your contract decides how extra work is directed, noticed and priced, and a signed ticket does not replace the written notice your contract may require.
