2 MANNER OF PROVIDING SERVICES

Click to edit Master text styles
• Fifth
• Second level level
• Third level

There are two ways by which the Architect may enter into contract with the Owner as the Lead

Professional working with other professionals in the engineering and allied professions:

3.1 with a single contract between the Architect and Owner, and sub-consultancy contracts

between the Architect and the other professionals working with the Architect.

3.2 with the Architect and the engineering and allied professionals executing separate contracts

with the Owner.

In both cases, the professional responsibilities and civil liabilities of each State-regulated professional

remains separate. The Architect does not assume any of the responsibilities and liabilities of the other

professionals (RLPs).

4.1 Percentage (%) of Project Construction Cost (PCC)

The Architect’s Fee based on the PPC shall be detailed in the Architect’s Guidelines.

4.2 Multiple of Direct Personnel Expenses

This cost-based method of compensation is applicable only to non-creative work such as
accounting, secretarial, research, data gathering, preparation of reports and the like. This
method of compensation is based on technical hours spent and does not account for creative
work since the value of creative design cannot be measured by the length of time the designer
has spent on his work. The computation is made by adding all costs of technical services (man
hours x rate) and then multiplying it by a multiplier to cover overhead and profit.
The multiplier ranges from 1.5 to 2.5 depending on the office set-up, overhead and experience
of the Architect and the complexity of the Project.

FORMULA

Assume:

A = Architect’s rate / hour

C = Consultant’s rate / hour

T = Rate per hour of Technical Staff, Researchers and others involved in the Project

AN, CN, TN = No. of hours spent by Architect, Consultants and Technical Staff

M = Multiplier to account for overhead and reasonable profit. The value may range from 1.5 to 2.5

depending on the set-up of the Architect’s office and the complexity of the Project.

R = Reimbursable expenses such as transportation, housing and living allowance of Consultant,

transportation, per diem, housing and living allowance of local consultants and technical staff if

assigned to places over 100km. from area of operation of the Architect.

Cost of printing of extra set of drawings, reports, maps, contract documents, etc. over the seven

(7) copies submitted to the Client, overseas and long distance calls, technical and laboratory

tests, licenses, fees, taxes and similar cost items needed by the Project.

Direct cost = AN + CN + TN

Fee = Direct Cost x M

Total Cost of Service charged to Client = Fee + R

4.3 Professional Fee Plus Expenses

This method of compensation is frequently used where there is continuing relationship involving

a series of Projects. It establishes a fixed sum over and above the reimbursement for the

Architect’s technical time and overhead. An agreement on the general scope of the work is

necessary in order to set an equitable fee.

4.4 Lump Sum or Fixed Fee

This method may be applied to government projects since they entail more paper work and

time-consuming efforts.
