Construction Management Contracts (500 Series)

ConsensusDOCS 500: Agreement and General Conditions Between Owner and Construction Manager (Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) with Option for Preconstruction Services)

An integrated agreement and general conditions document, the ConsensusDOCS 500 also provides an option for preconstruction services, such as providing estimates of the Project, reviewing drawings and specifications for constructability problems, creating schedules for procurement of long lead items, and developing Trade Contractor interest in the Project. It may be used in a variety of negotiated contract situations in which the Owner desires a comprehensive set of preconstruction and/or construction services from the Construction Manger and seeks the assurance of an overall project cost ceiling.  View 500 Guidebook Comments.

ConsensusDOCS 510: Agreement and General Conditions Between Owner and Construction Manager (Cost of Work with Option for Preconstruction Services)

Intended to form an integrated agreement and general conditions document between the Owner and the Construction Manager performing work on a cost of the work plus a fee basis without a GMP. It also provides an option for the Contractor to provide pre-construction services similar to the ConsensusDOCS 500. It may be used in a variety of negotiated contract situations in which the Owner desires a comprehensive set of preconstruction and/or construction services from the Contractor, and it may be particularly applicable in situations where project variables, such as a well-defined scope of the work, may be unknown at the time of contract execution. With preconstruction services added, this document becomes the equivalent of a Construction Manager at Risk (CM@R) agreement.
