Support the transition from drawings to construction with the architectural services agreed for your project. Clarify communication, reviews and responsibilities before work starts.
Construction administration is the architect’s involvement during the construction phase under the agreed scope. It can include responding to design questions, reviewing relevant submittals and observing work at scheduled visits.
It is distinct from the contractor’s management of construction. Confirm the architect’s services, site-visit arrangements and communication process before work begins.
Discuss This ServiceEstablish a clear route for the contractor to raise questions about the documents and for the owner to consider proposed changes. Record decisions so the people carrying out the work have consistent information.
A change can affect more than appearance. Discuss any implications for cost, timing and related details before authorizing the work.
