This post is about "designing" the web of contracts for design and construction projects. You want to design and build, not get 'hung up' with contracts.An architect agreement is a legal document that outlines the obligations and rights of the parties involved, typically in a development project. THIS AGREEMENT ("Agreement") effective as of November 11, 2018, but actually executed on the date witnessed, is entered. A consulting agreement establishes the terms of a relationship between a consultant and the client, whether a business or individual. Make it "client friendly". The construction company will be entering in a contract with the client not with you. This architect agreement template includes terms necessary to protect you as the architect while remaining fair to your client.
