At that point, AIA-A133-2009 will be terminated and “AIA 101- 2007 Standard Form of Agreement between

Owner and Contractor where the basis of payment is a stipulated sum” will be prepared and executed for contracting of the construction work.

Fee and General Conditions Costs

Fees, general conditions and reimbursables will be negotiated with the selected firm on a project by project basis. If negotiations fail, the second ranked firm will be considered. The established fees shall be a minimum of 8.0% and a maximum of 12.0% for each project. The construction management fee is defined as all of the services and costs in the column “Construction

Management Services within fee” per the attached fee matrix, and all of the contractor’s overhead and profit.
