AIA Document F301™–2024 is a standard form of agreement between client and consultant that contains terms and conditions, including those related to copyrights and licenses, claims and disputes, termination or suspension, and compensation. F301 may be used to hire a variety of types of consultants to perform services on an existing facility or facilities. For example, F301 may be used to hire a facility manager or property manager. It may also be used to hire an architect to perform a facility condition assessment or existing building inventory, or to perform other design services, such as space planning or move management planning. It may also be used to hire a structural engineer to perform a variety of services on an existing facility, such as structural inspections, roof inspections, or façade inspections.
F301 does not include a scope of consultant’s services, which must be inserted in Article 3 or attached as an exhibit. Separation of the scope of services from the client/consultant agreement allows users the freedom to append alternative scopes of services. AIA scopes of services documents that may be paired with F301 include AIA Document F311™-2024, Standard Form of Consultant’s Services: Facility Condition Assessment.
