In this case, the unreasonable burden is compensated by granting the additional or reduced costs.  <\/p><p>The standard for unreasonableness is derived from Section 313 BGB, the disturbance of the basis of the transaction. This requires a blatant disproportion between the service and the lump sum. Extremely strict requirements are set and an assessment is made depending on the individual case.  <\/p><p>The contractor bears the risk for the correct calculation when agreeing a lump sum price; if he could have recognized that his service description was incorrect or incomplete, he cannot subsequently invoke an unreasonable lump sum price. If a &#8220;fixed price&#8221; has been agreed, there are particularly high hurdles for the contractor to prove an unreasonable burden. <\/p><h4><strong><em>Remuneration for &#8220;additional&#8221; or &#8220;modified&#8221; services<\/em><\/strong><\/h4><p>A claim to remuneration that can be demanded in addition to the agreed lump sum price is granted by <a href=\"https:\/\/dejure.org\/gesetze\/VOB-B\/2.html\" title=\"&sect; 2 VOB\/B: Verg&uuml;tung\">\u00a7 2 Para. 7 No. 2 VOB\/B<\/a>, according to which the provisions of <a href=\"https:\/\/dejure.org\/gesetze\/VOB-B\/2.html\" title=\"&sect; 2 VOB\/B: Verg&uuml;tung\">\u00a7 2<\/a> Para. 5, <a href=\"https:\/\/dejure.org\/gesetze\/VOB-B\/6.html\" title=\"&sect; 6 VOB\/B: Behinderung und Unterbrechung der Ausf&uuml;hrung\">6 VOB\/B<\/a> (remuneration for additional or changed services) also apply if a lump sum has been agreed.  <\/p><p>The decisive factor here is whether the service is actually an &#8220;additional&#8221; or &#8220;modified&#8221; service.<\/p><p>This is only the case if the service is not already included in the originally agreed service target. It is disputed who bears the burden of proof that the service is not part of the original performance target. <\/p><p>This question is always determined by what the parties have specifically agreed:<\/p><p>Systematically, a distinction is made between a <strong>global flat-rate contract<\/strong> and a <strong>detailed flat-rate contract<\/strong>. In practice, there are a large number of mixed forms, so that classification into a pure contract type appears to be rather unusual. However, the classification can provide arguments as to whether a certain service is already contractually owed or not. For the distinction between global flat-rate contracts and detailed flat-rate contracts, please read my separate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.meier-greve.de\/pauschalvertrag-globalpauschalvertrag-detailpauschalvertrag\/\"><strong>CONTRIBUTION. <\/strong><\/a>The following are therefore only the key points:   <\/p><h5><u>Global flat-rate contract<\/u><\/h5><p>In a global lump sum contract, the service is described functionally and the contractor bears the particular risk of having to supplement the original rough service description in any case.<\/p><h5><u>Detailed flat-rate contract<\/u><\/h5><p>In a detailed flat-rate contract, on the other hand, it is not the service that is flat-rate but the price. This contract is usually based on a detailed specification of services. The flat-rate price then only includes the services described in the specifications.  <\/p><h5><u>Contracts with a so-called completeness clause<\/u><\/h5><p>In the case of so-called all-inclusive clauses, according to which the contractor is obliged to provide all necessary services without separate remuneration, it depends, according to case law, on who is to bear the risk of unforeseeable services. In the case of detailed flat-rate contracts, the risk should be limited to increased quantities; completely new services should not be borne by the contractor. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-146fc5c elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"146fc5c\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;,&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;zoomIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a3ab5e7\" data-id=\"a3ab5e7\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eccc33d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"eccc33d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3><strong>Summary<\/strong><\/h3><p>Whether remuneration for &#8220;additional services&#8221; is justified in the case of lump-sum price contracts is primarily determined by whether the service in question, for which additional remuneration is demanded, exceeds the originally agreed service target. If this is not the case, additional remuneration may only be justified in rare exceptional cases. <\/p><p>After all, the agreement of the scope of services owed in (plant) construction contracts is of paramount importance. Experience has shown that it is advisable to determine the scope of performance with the utmost care and in as much detail as possible.

The background to such a dishonest approach is &#8211; obviously &#8211; not least the potential for blackmail associated with such an approach. This is because the party that finds itself &#8211; in breach of the jurisdiction agreement &#8211; exposed to a foreign lawsuit is regularly forced to take action abroad through lawyers in order to avoid legal disadvantages.
