“The nature of this stage is primarily exploratory, in order to see if there is a business case for the project being proposed. As such, it is open ended and can only be charged on a time basis.” - RIAS.org

“The aim of this stage is to ascertain whether the scheme is feasible and to identify any fundamental objections to the scheme. The amount of work for the architect may vary considerably. Also, it may be impossible to identify a reasonably realistic contract cost at this stage.” - RIAS.org

“The concept design is developed to show the appearance of a building, how fixtures and fittings are incorporated and how important details of construction are intended to work. The agreed budget will be taken into account when developing the design information in harmony with previously identified objectives as regards, for instance, quality, long-term maintenance and energy performance.

This stage normally culminates in the architect providing the information for design and layout to accompany the Client’s application to the local authority for Planning permission.” - RIAS.org

“Description goes hThis stage is where the architect prepares, based on what has already been agreed, detailed technical information, suitable for the Contractor to use in construction of the project and will include obtaining the necessary statutory consents. A common milestone that architects use in apportioning fees is that of ‘tender for the main construction contract’. In most, though by no means all, cases this will occur at the end of Stage 4.” - RIAS.org

“At this stage, the architect’s role will normally be limited to administering the Construction Contract and making site inspections as appropriate so as to ensure that the Contractor is following the drawings and specification, work completed is of an appropriate standard and staged payments to the Contractor are correctly certified.

In traditional procurement, the chartered architect’s role as contract administrator is to make periodic site visits to inspect the general progress of the work, to issue instructions to the contractor and, if necessary, to reject obviously unsatisfactory work. If you wish closer inspection of the contractor’s work you can employ a clerk of works, or come to an agreement whereby the chartered architect makes more frequent visits to the site. Your chartered architect will report to you on matters of progress, on any unforeseen circumstances on site, any variations in budget or programme, and will issue periodic certificates for stage payments due to the contractor.” - RIAS.org

“The architect acting as Contract Administrator will be concluding all aspects of the Building Contract including the inspection of defects, as they are rectified, or the production of certification required under the Building Contract.” -RIAS.org
