FULL ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES/BID ARCHITECT SELECTION - Usually by Request for Proposal (RFP) process. An RFP is sent to a group of architects detailing the scope of work to be provided, the time schedule, and a description of the project. Architects are chosen on their past records, expertise in the project area, project team proposed, and fee proposed. DESIGN FEE - The fee may be set by negotiation, but is usually based on a cost curve. This fee may be about 8% for a project of this size. DESIGN PROCEDURE - Architect prepares design drawings and specifications according to time specified in contract. Probably would take 4 to 5 months minimum for this project. BID PROCESS - Advertise, open bids, award contract. Process takes at least a month. No guarantees as to project cost. CONSTRUCTION PROCESS - Architect may act as project manager if owner desires. Project constructed according to constraints in contract and specifications. P. O.
