| being in the construction field i use a lot of the same or similar acronyms that Telekinetic uses in engineering.
 MOM = minutes of meeting
 BOQ or BQ = Bill of Quantities
 LOA= Letter of acceptance
 LOI - Letter of intent
 FIDIC = a type of engineering contract comonly used in europe and middle east
 CVR = cost value reconciliation
 RFI = request for information
 RFD = request for deviation
 SI = site instruction
 EI = Engineers Instruction
 VO = Variation order
 CO= Change order
 ETC = Estimate to completion
 FTC=forcast to completion
 EFC = estimated final cost
 EFV = estimated final value
 
 All construction, commercial or contract related obviously.
 
 a typical example i would use is
 
 "hey Does that VO have an EI, SI or an RFD. If Not, FIDIC wont allow you to claim VO, and i cant give you a CO"
 
 i could go on...
