ARCHITECT'S SERVICES Clause Samples

The 'Architect's Services' clause defines the scope and nature of the professional services the architect is required to provide under the contract. It typically outlines the specific phases of work, such as schematic design, design development, construction documents, and construction administration, and may detail deliverables, timelines, and responsibilities. By clearly delineating what is expected from the architect, this clause ensures both parties understand the architect's role and helps prevent disputes over the extent of services to be provided.
