The latest AIA Contract Documents release includes three documents:

• C191-2009 Standard Form Multi-Party Agreement for Integrated Project Delivery (IPD)
AIA Document C191–2009 is a standard form multi-party agreement through which the owner, architect, contractor, and perhaps other key project participants execute a single agreement for the design, construction and commissioning of a Project. C191–2009 provides the framework for a collaborative environment in which the parties operate in furtherance of cost and performance goals that the parties jointly establish. The non-owner parties are compensated on a cost-of-the-work basis. The compensation model is also goal-oriented, and provides incentives for collaboration in design and construction of the project. Primary management of the project is the responsibility of the Project Management Team, comprised of one representative from each of the parties. The Project Executive Team, also comprised of one representative from each of the parties, provides a second level of project oversight and issue resolution. The conflict resolution process is intended to foster quick and effective resolution of problems as they arise. This collaborative process has the potential to result in a high quality project for the owner, and substantial monetary and intangible rewards for the other parties.

• B108™-2009, Standard Form of Agreement Between Owner and Architect for a Federally Funded or Federally Insured Project
AIA Document B108–2009 is a standard form of agreement between Owner and Architect for building design and construction contract administration that is intended for use on federally funded or federally insured projects. B108–2009 was developed with the assistance of several federal agencies and contains terms and conditions that are unique to federally funded or federally insured projects. B108–2009 sets forth five traditional phases of Basic Services: Schematic Design, Design Development, Construction Documents, Bidding or Negotiation, and Construction. Two other types of services are delineated in the document: Optional Services and Additional Services. B108–2009 is structured so that either the Owner or the Architect may be the entity providing cost estimates. NOTE: B181–1994 is retired on May 31, 2011.

• B202™-2009, Standard Form of Architect’s Services: Programming
AIA Document B202–2009 establishes duties and responsibilities where the architect provides the owner with programming services. The architect’s programming services are set forth in a series of iterative steps, from a broad identification of priorities, values and goals of the programming participants to working with the Owner to confirm the Owner’s objectives for the Project. The programming services also include information gathering to develop performance and design criteria, and developing a final program of Project requirements. B202–2009 may be used in two ways: (1) incorporated into the owner/architect agreement as the architect’s sole scope of services or in conjunction with other scope of services documents, or (2) attached to G802–2007, Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement, to create a modification to an existing owner/architect agreement. B202–2009 is a scope of services document only and may not be used as a stand-alone owner/architect agreement.
