Agreement With Architect Consultant

As projects become increasingly complex and consultants` expertise specializes beyond standard structural, mechanical and electrical construction, not all consultants fit under the roof of C401. This applies in particular to consultants who are only involved in a single project phase or who act as a direct arm of the architect`s design team, for example.B. as a specification recorder or hardware advisor. Agreements for these consultants need not necessarily be bound by the terms of the main agreement between the owner and the architect. In such cases, architects should choose C402-2018, the standard form of the agreement between the architect and the advisor for special services. .
