AIA Forms - A141 – 2004 Agreement Between Owner and Design-Builder

A141 – 2004 Agreement Between Owner and Design-Builder replaces A191 – 1996 and consists of the Agreement Between Owner and Design-Builder and three exhibits: Exhibit A, Terms and Conditions; Exhibit B, Determination of the Cost of the Work; and Exhibit C, Insurance and Bonds. Exhibit B is not applicable if the parties select to use a Stipulated Sum. A141 – 2004 requires the Design-Builder to fully execute the Work required by the Design-Build Documents, which include A141 – 2004 with its attached exhibits, the project criteria and the design-builder’s proposal, including any revisions to those documents accepted by the owner, supplementary and other conditions, addenda and modifications.

The A141 - 2004 Agreement Between Owner and Design-Builder requires the parties to select the payment type from three choices: (1) Stipulated Sum, (2) Cost of the Work Plus Design-Builder’s Fee, and (3) Cost of the Work Plus Design-Builder’s Fee with a Guaranteed Maximum Price.

The A141 – 2004 with its attached exhibits forms the nucleus of the Design-Build Contract. Because A141 – 2004 includes its own Terms and Conditions, it does not use A201 – 1997.
