More details to this question:
A and B executed a contract in September for B to provide a full industrial commercial kitchen for the sum of $1,225,000. Before any work started and less than 1 month later B stated that he would not do the job unless the contract price was increased by $75,000. A Change Work Order was written and signed by A agreeing to change the contract price by $75,000 but all other contract terms remain in effect. No new or additional work was required from B. Is the Changed Work Order enforceable ?

The discussion concerning a work order that affects such a substantial contract should not be reduced to an opinion being given in this forum, without the opportunity to review both the agreement and the work order- you should consult with a qualified attorney who can review same and then offer an opinion.
