Architectural services means services related to the art and science of designing and building structures for human habitation or use and includes planning, providing preliminary studies, designs, specifications, working drawings and providing for general administration of construction contracts.
Architectural services include design, preparation
of construction documents, and construction administration. Architects also
provide a wide variety of services including feasibility studies, architectural
programming and project management.
The following is an outline of services typically
offered by architects and their sub-consultants:
• Project Inception
- The planning of your project starts here. Working together
with your architect, you will share your project needs, dreams and goals.
• Schematic Design –
During this stage your architect will begin by preparing preliminary design
sketches based on your requirements and budget to explore and illustrate
possible options. The architect will review these options with you, pointing
out the merits and responding to your input.
• Design Development –
This stage refines the agreed upon schematic design for a clearer definition of
the scope and quality of the finished project. Further cost projections will
determine how closely the design conforms to the budget expectations, or what,
if any, adjustments are required.
• Construction Documents –
When the design concepts have been decided, the architect prepares working
drawings and specifications. These are required to obtain building permits and
bids, and to guide the contractor in construction.
• Bidding and Negotiation –
Your architect can advise you on your choice of contractor – usually done by
calling for competitive bids. Your architect will help evaluate the bids and
select the contractor, and prepare the contract between you and the contractor.
• Construction and Contract
Administration – Your architect will consult with you and
advise you during construction. On-site visits will determine if construction
is proceeding in general accordance with the contract, and that the design,
materials, and workmanship meet with acceptable standards.
• Substantial Performance of Construction
/ Occupancy Certificate – Your architect provides regular
progress reports to keep you informed, authorizes staged payments to the
contractor and remains involved until the project is completed.
