§ 2.1.7 EVALUATION OF BUDGET AND COST OF THE WORK
§ 2.1.7.1 When the Project requirements have been sufficiently identified, the Architect shall prepare a preliminary estimate of the Cost of the Work. This estimate may be based on current area, volume or similar conceptual estimating techniques. As the design process progresses through the end of the preparation of the Construction Documents, the Architect shall update and refine the preliminary estimate of the Cost of the Work. The Architect shall advise the Owner of any adjustments to previous estimates of the Cost of the Work indicated by changes in Project requirements or general market conditions. If at any time the Architect’s estimate of the Cost of the Work exceeds the Owner’s budget, the Architect shall make appropriate recommendations to the Owner to adjust the Project’s size, quality or budget, and the Owner shall cooperate with the Architect in making such adjustments.
§ 2.1.7.2 Evaluations of the Owner’s budget for the Project, the preliminary estimate of the Cost of the Work and updated estimates of the Cost of the Work prepared by the Architect represent the Architect’s judgment as a design professional familiar with the construction industry. It is recognized, however, that neither the Architect nor the Owner has control over the cost of labor, materials or equipment, over the Contractor’s methods of determining bid prices, or over competitive bidding, market or negotiating conditions. Accordingly, the Architect cannot and does not warrant or represent that bids or negotiated prices will not vary from the Owner’s budget for the Project or from any estimate of the Cost of the Work or evaluation prepared or agreed to by the Architect.
§ 2.1.7.3 In preparing estimates of the Cost of the Work, the Architect shall be permitted to include contingencies for design, bidding and price escalation; to determine what materials, equipment, component systems and types of construction are to be included in the Contract Documents; to make reasonable adjustments in the scope of the Project and to include in the Contract Documents alternate bids as may be necessary to adjust the estimated Cost of the Work to meet the Owner’s budget for the Cost of the Work. If an increase in the Contract Sum occurring after execution of the Contract between the Owner and the Contractor causes the budget for the Cost of the Work to be exceeded that budget shall be increased accordingly.
§ 2.1.7.4 If bidding or negotiation has not commenced within 90 days after the Architect submits the Construction Documents to the Owner, the budget for the Cost of the Work shall be adjusted to reflect changes in the general level of prices in the construction industry.
§ 2.1.7.5 If the budget for the Cost of the Work is exceeded by the lowest bona fide bid or negotiated proposal, the Owner shall:
.1 give written approval of an increase in the budget for the Cost of the Work;
.2 authorize rebidding or renegotiating of the Project within a reasonable time;
.3 terminate in accordance with Section 1.3.8.5; or
.4 cooperate in revising the Project scope and quality as required to reduce the Cost of the Work.
§ 2.1.7.6 If the Owner chooses to proceed under Section 2.1.7.5.4, the Architect, without additional compensation, shall modify the documents for which the Architect is responsible under this Agreement as necessary to comply with the budget for the Cost of the Work. The modification of such documents shall be the limit of the Architect’s responsibility under this Section 2.1.7. The Architect shall be entitled to compensation in accordance with this Agreement for all services performed whether or not construction is commenced.
