AIA Document A201-2017, the General Conditions of the Contract for Construction, is paired with, and used with, many other AIA contract documents. The A201-2017 typically applies when owners contract separately with architects and contractors to procure design and construction services. This essential contract document bridges the gap between the owner’s separate contracts with the project’s architect and contractor. The General Conditions is a practical guide that concerns architects, not just lawyers.

Understanding A201-2017 can promote successful project outcomes, including met expectations and claim avoidance, particularly in the construction phase.
