Description
CCDC 15 is a standard contract between the Design-Builder and Consultant to perform the Design Services required under a design-build contract between the Owner and Design-Builder. Based on an approach similar to standard client-consultant contracts (i.e. RAIC Document Six and ACEC 31), CCDC 15 lists all the basic design services that are considered necessary in a design-build contract. These design services are listed in a Schedule, which allows flexibility for the Design-Builder and Consultant to establish the scope of services and compensation method. CCDC 15 also includes a schedule that lists typical additional design services that the Consultant may be required to provide. The important terms and conditions addressed in CCDC 15 include: Copyright and use of documents; Design-Builder’s roles and responsibilities in supplying information to the Consultant and reviewing design; Consultant’s roles and responsibilities in providing Design Services, engaging Subconsultants, and coordinating Other Consultants; Design to meet the Construction Budget; Limitation of liability for Design Services. Using CCDC 15 – 2013: Design Services Contract between Design-Builder and Consultant requires using a Copyright Seal. Electronic document purchase includes 2 seals. Additional seals maybe purchased.
