The American Institute of Architects release new and updated contract documents just last month.
They constantly work on improving their work in order to help owners, businesses and contractors protect their rights and their work. Some of the changes are:
- Master Agreements, which now align with the 2017 core AIA document updates.
- Instructions to Bidders, which now includes designation of Bidding Documents in electronic form or paper copy.
