Synonymouse is right. Tutor-Perini has a history of under-bidding to get the government contract, then making the money up through BS change orders.
"On Tuesday, it approved the second omnibus package for a total of 409 change orders and $53 million that includes all the work completed through January 2021. A third and final omnibus package will be presented to the board later this year to cover anything that comes up before project completion.
The remaining money paid out to Tutor Perini — $93.6 million — settled a litany of claims levied against the agency (SFMTA) having to do with inefficiencies, incidentals and other accrued costs that the contractor said it had been forced to float."
