gives the architect more control over the consultant's work

permits the owner to better coordinate the efforts for the project team

relieves the architect of responsibility for paying the consultant

permits the consultant to start work earlier

consider fast-tracking construction

Assign more staff in the architect's office to programming and design and work overtime to get construction started earlier

Use CPM scheduling and use a negotiated contract rather than bidding the project

suggest that the client streamline its decision-making process and hire a construction manager

An owner may use the instruments of service from a project for an addition or renovation to that project.

An owner has an exclusive license to reproduce drawings for the contractor's use in building the project.

An owner may assign the license to the instruments of service to a lender if it is a conditon of financing.

If an architect is found to have defaulted on the Owner-Archtect Agreement, the owner receives a nonexclusive license to reproduce the instru­ ments of servce and may authorize another architect to complete the project.

If an owner brings an independent construction manager into a project shortly before construction beings in order to help "value engineer" the project, the architect's responsibilities and fee are not affected.

A construction manager serviing as an advisor to an owner during the design development phase is responsible for estimating the construction cost and guaranteeing a maximum price for the work

A construction manager is often hired when a project has fst-tracked multiple prime con­struction contracts rather than one general con­ tract for construction.
