1、AIA Document A101/CMa（1992）Standard Form of AgreementINSTRUCTION SHEETFOR AIA DOCUMENT A101/CMa, STANDARD FORM OF AGREEMENT BETWEEN OWNER AND CONTRACTOR Where the Basis of Payment is a STIPULATED SUM-1992 CONSTRUCTION MANAGER-ADVISER EDITIONA. GENERAL INFORMATION1. PurposeAIA Document A101/CMa is a
2、standard form of agreement between Owner and Contractor and is intended for use on construction management projects where the basis of payment is a stipulated sum (fixed price). It is suitable for situations where, in addition to the Contractor and Architect, a separate Construction Manager assists
3、the Owner in an advisory capacity during design and construction.2. Related DocumentsThis document has been prepared for use in conjunction with the l992 edition of AIA Document A20l/CMa, General Conditions of the Contract for Construction-Construction Manager-Adviser Edition, which is adopted into
4、A101/CMa by specific reference. This integrated set of documents is suitable for projects Where the Construction Manager serves in the capacity of adviser and not in the capacity of Contractor.The A101/CMa document may be used as one part of the Contract Documents which memorialize the Contract for
5、Construction between the Owner and the Contractor. The other Contract Documents are:General Conditions (i.e., A201/CMa)Supplementary ConditionsDrawingsSpecificationsModificationsA101/CMa should NOT be used in combination with documents where it is assumed that the Construction Manager takes on the r
6、ole of constructor, gives the Owner a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) or contracts directly with those who supply labor and materials to construct the project.AIA documents containing the designation CMc (Construction Manager-Constructor) are inappropriate for use with CMa (Construction ManagerAdvise
7、r) documents, as the Construction Manager-Adviser and Construction Manager-Constructor differ in their respective roles and responsibilities. An example of such an inappropriate pairing of construction documents would be A20l/CMa and A121/CMc.In addition, if the Architect wishes to Perform construct
8、ion management services in combination with design and administrative services (such as is provided for in AIA Document B141), incorporation of a special amendment to or modification of AIA Document B141 is more appropriate than utilization of B141/CMa. Although the AIA does not produce standard doc
9、uments for Supplementary Conditions, Drawings or Specifications. avariety of model and guide documents is available, including AIAs MASTERSPEC.3. Arbitration This document incorporates ARBITRATION by adoption of AIA Document A201/CMa, which provides for dispute resolution to be conducted according t
10、o the Construction Industry Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Arbitration is BINDING AND MANDATORY in most states and under the federal Arbitration Act. In a minority of states, arbitration provisions relating to future disputes are not enforceable, but arbitration is enforc
11、eable if agreed to after the dispute arises. A few states require that the contracting parties be especially notified when the written contract contains an arbitration provision by: a warning on the face of the document, specific placement of the arbitration provision within the document or specific
12、 discussions among the parties prior to signing the document.Arbitration provisions have been included in most AIA contract forms since 1888 in order to encourage alternative dispute resolution procedures and to provide users of AIA documents with legally enforceable arbitration provisions when the
13、parties choose to adopt arbitration into their contract. Individuals may, however, choose to delete the arbitration provisions based upon their business decisions with the advice of counsel. TO obtain a copy of the Construction Industry Arbitration Rules, write to the American Arbitration Associatio
14、n, 140 West 51st St.,New York, NY 10020-l203.4. Use of Non-AIA FormsIf a combination of AIA documents and non-AIA documents is to be used, particular care must be taken to achieve consistency of language and intent. Certain owners require the use of owner-contractor agreements and other contract for
15、ms that they prepare. Such forms should be carefully compared with the standard AIA forms for which they are being substituted before execution of an agreement. If there are any significant omissions, additions or variances from the terms of the related standard AIA forms, both legal and insurance c
16、ounsel should be consulted.5. Letter Forms of AgreementLetter forms of agreement are generally discouraged by the AIA, as is the performance of a part or the whole of the Work on the basis of oral agreements or understandings. The standard AIA agreement forms have been developed through more than se
17、venty-five years of experience and have been tested repeatedly in the courts. In addition, the standard forms have been carefully coordinated with other AIA documents.6. Use of Current Documents Prior to using any AIA document, the user should consult the AIA, an AIA component chapter or a current A
18、IA Documents List to determine the current edition of each document.7.

A101/CMa may not be reproduced for Project Manuals. Rather, if a user w
22、ishes to include it as an example in a Project Manual, the normal practice is to purchase a quantity of the printed forms and bind one in each of the Project Manuals.

Two new articles have been added: Article 8, Termination or S
26、uspension and Article 9, Enumeration of Contract Documents.2. Changes in ContentThe 1992 edition of A101/CMa revises the 1980 edition to reflect changes made in the most recent (1992) edition of A201/CMa. It incorporates alterations proposed by architects, contractors, owners and professional consul
27、tants. The following are some of the significant changes made to the contents from the 1980 edition of A101/CM:Article 1: A specific statement has been added that the Contract represents the entire agreement between the parties, superseding previous negotiations and writings.Article 2: Space has bee
28、n provided to describe any exceptions to the description of contractors scope of Work.Article 3: In the title of this article, Time of Commencement has been changed to Date of Commencement. The Contractor is now required to notify the Owner before commencing the Work to permit the timely filing of m
29、ortgages and other security interests.Article 4: Space has been provided for insertion of the amounts relating to alternates and unit prices.Article 5: The Progress Payments article has been substantially rewritten and expanded.

30、alculated and applied for.Article 6: Further details have been added to clarify the conditions under which final payment shall be made by the Owner.Article 7: The reference to definitions contained in the Conditions of the contract has been deleted because the A201/CMa document is now specifically a

See the instructions pertaining to Limited Li
33、cense for Reproduction.CCOMPLETING THE A101/CMa FORM1. Prospective bidders should be informed of any additional provisions which may be included in A101/CMa, such as liquidated damages or provisions for stored materials, by an appropriate notice in the Bidding Documents and the Supplementary Conditi
34、ons.2. ModificationsUsers are encouraged to consult an attorney before completing an AIA document. Particularly with respect to contractors licensing laws, duties imposed by building codes, interest charges, arbitration and indemnification, this document may require modification with the assistance
35、of legal counsel to fully comply with state or local laws regulating these matters.Generally, necessary modifications may be accomplished by writing or typing the appropriate terms in the blank spaces provided on the form or by Supplementary Conditions, special conditions or amendments included in t
36、he Project Manual and referenced in this document. The form may also be modified by striking out language directly on the original printed form. Care must be taken in making these kinds of deletions, however.Under NO circumstances should printed language be struck out in such a way as to render it i
37、llegible (as, for example, with blocking tape, correction fluid or Xs that completely obscure the text). This may raise suspicions of fraudulent concealment or suggest that the completed and signed document has been tampered with. Handwritten changes should be initialed by both parties to the contra
38、ct.It is definitely not recommended practice to retype to retype the standard document. Besides being outside the Limited License for Reproduction granted under these Instructions. retyping can introduce typographical errors and cloud the legal interpretation given to a standard clause when blended
39、with modifications.Retyping eliminates one of the principal advantages of the standard form documents. By merely reviewing the modifications to be made to a standard form document, parties familiar with that document can quickly understand the essence of the proposed relationship. Commercial exchang
40、es are greatly simplified and expedited, good-faith dealing is encouraged, and otherwise latent clauses are exposed for scrutiny. In this way, contracting parties can more confidently and fairly measure their risks.3. Cover PageDate: The date represents the date the Agreement becomes effective. It m
41、ay be the date that an oral agreement was reached, the date the Agreement was originally submitted to the Owner, the date authorizing action was taken or the date of actual execution.
