Join us on September 26, 1–2:30 p.m., EDT, for a 90-minute virtual seminar on the anticipated changes to AIA Document A201-1997 General Conditions of the Contract for Construction and related documents in 2007. Learn about the revision process, pros and cons of the proposed revisions, and how the proposed changes may affect other AIA contract documents.

AIA A201, which serves as the cornerstone document outlining the framework for the relationships among the owner, architect, and contractor in a construction project, is being revised for publication in late 2007, as are related AIA owner-contractor agreements, including Document A101-1997 Standard Form of Agreement Between Owner and Contractor. Get ahead of the curve! Preview these documents and evaluate how revisions may affect you.

The virtual seminar will analyze how the revisions will affect the owner, contractor, and architect, as well as explore the pros and cons of those parties’ respective positions. The speakers will explain how the 2007 revisions affect or are reflected in related AIA Owner-Architect agreements. They also will help participants appreciate how revisions encompass new issues and changes in the construction industry and how these revisions may affect their practices.

Presenters Clay F. Hickerson, AIA, and Michael J. Stransky, FAIA, both serve on the AIA’s Contract Documents Committee and have been active contributors to the A201 revisions. Tuition is $125 per connection for the program. For more information or to register, visit the virtual seminar Web site. Questions? Contact Vanessa Williamson.
