AIA Contracts

AIA Contracts are standardized legal agreements created by the American Institute of Architects to guide the relationship between clients and construction professionals, such as architects and contractors. They clearly define each party’s responsibilities, project scope, timelines, costs, and procedures for handling changes or disputes. These contracts help ensure that everyone involved understands their roles, reduces misunderstandings, and provides legal protection. Widely used in the construction industry, AIA Contracts promote transparency, fairness, and efficiency throughout the design and building process.
