DescriptionA directive is a request from a contractor asking another contractor to perform tasks that might not already be indicated on a contract. For example; a directive might be to paint the walls blue, but in the contract it said to paint the walls red. That change, assuming painting has not begun and material have not yet been purchased, wouldn't normally be associated with additional costs, and therefore is a directive.
