THE VIRTUES OF AN ARCHITECT
May the Architect be high-minded;
not arrogant, but faithful;
just, and easy to deal with,
without avarice;
Not let his mind be occupied
in receiving gifts,
but let him preserve his good name
with dignity

PREFACE
On October 25, 1965, the Architects National Code was approved and adopted by the
three (3) architectural organizations existing at that time, namely; the Philippine Institute
of Architects (PIA), the League of Philippine Architects (LPA) and the Association ofPhilippine Government Architects (APGA).
On January 15, 1975, the three (3) architectural organizations were integrated intoone
association called the United Architects of the Philippines (UAP).
The UAP, in response to the need to review and update the documents in order to be
more responsive to the practice of the Profession in the Philippines prepared and
divided the Architects National Code into two divisions namely:
1. Code of Ethical Conductand
2. Standards of Professional Practice
On July 21, 1979, the Architects National Code was approved by the UAP National
Board of Directors and on September 24, 1979, the Professional Regulation
Commission (PRC) through the Board of Architecture (BOA), adopted the Architects
National Code as part of the Rules and Regulations to which all practicing architects
shall conform in the performance of their duties and obligations.
After 28 years on August 18, 2007, the UAP National Board of Directors headed by
Archt. Medeliano T. Roldan, Jr., FUAP then UAP National Presidentpassed a Board
Resolution approving the UAP Proposal No.04 with the intent of creating a Special
Committee to handle all matters relating to the compilation, review, evaluation,
amendments and revision of the Documents on Standards on Professional Practice
and related UAP Documents including Guidelines on Corporate Practice of
Architecture. Subsequently on August 21, 2007, Executive Order No. 0708-006 was
passed creating and establishing a Special Committee on Standards of Professional
Practice to comply with the provisions of Republic Act 9266 (the Architecture Act of
2004) and Batas PambansaBlg. 68 (the Corporate Code of the Philippines) and other
related rules, regulations and codes, and to respond to the increasing public and usersdemand, the evaluation of new standards of regulated professional practice, the
advancement of technology and the enactment of new laws.
The Ad-Hoc Committees on Standards of Professional Practice during one of their
meetings unanimously agreed to consolidate all the Architects Compensations and
Schedule of Fees into one (1) document, then UAP National President Archt. Ana S.
Mangalino-Ling, FUAP, Apec Architect mandated and tasked the committee headed by
Archt. Norberto M. Nuke, FUAP, LIKHA, Apec Architect to prepare the document to be
presented to the UAP National Board of Directors for approval.
The title ARCHITECTS GUIDELINES on Standards of Professional Practice,
METHODS OF COMPENSATION AND SCHEDULE OF FEES UAP DOC. 208-A was
adopted from the documents on Standards of Professional Practice, the 1979 UAP
-
7/25/2019 ARCHITECTS GUIDELINES - UAP doc 208-A.pdf
11/63
DOC. 208-b Methods of Compensation and the consolidation on Methods of
Compensation and Schedule of Fees on all types of Architectural Services. The new
version includes a comprehensive Methods of Compensation and Schedule of Fees as
the practice of architecture has become more complex and intricate to meet the
challenges in determining the right compensation as the Architect services increases.
To effectively respond to the present needs and demands of the profession, the
Committee had prepared the ARCHITECTS GUIDELINES, defining the rules and
regulations to be followed in implementing the provisions on METHODS OF
COMPENSATION AND SCHEDULE OF FEES UAP DOC. 208-A.
The UAP National Board of Directors in their last regular meeting held on June 26,
2010 at UAP National Headquarters in Quezon City, approved Board Resolution 09-10
No. 7-16 for adoption the ARCHITECTS GUIDELINES on Standards of Professional
Practice, METHODS OF COMPENSATION AND SCHEDULE OF FEES, UAP DOC.
208-A.
The Architects Guidelines will be the official IAPOA issuance to be observed by all
IAPOA members

INTRODUCTION
There are architects all over the Philippines practising in the seventeen (17) regions of
the country. However, at this point in time, they are uncertain and confused as to what
standards of fees and what manner of payments would apply to the various types of
projects they undertake. To complicate the situation, technology has evolved so fast
that the classification of types of buildings has becomecomplex, and numerous types of
structures have made their appearance in the planning, design and construction scene,
which makes the calculation of charges for professional fees more complicated.
In general, professional fees are project-based, with basic fees computed as a
percentage of construction cost of materials and labor plus incidentals. However, there
are various types of projects and various levels of complexity, and so, guidelines for
computation of professional fees must be produced for such variations in the projects
undertaken by Architects.
Thus, the United Architects of the Philippines is publishing this document entitled UAP
Doc. 208-A: Architects Guidelines on Standards of Professional Practice,
Methods of Compensation and Schedule of Fees, on how Architects would charge
their Clients for services rendered, in order to provide a convenient consolidatedreference for the use of Architects. This document consolidates in onereferencethe
methods of compensation of services found and discussed in the other UAP
documents.

RULE I
TITLE, RATIONALE, OBJECTIVES, POLICY STATEMENT AND
DEFINITION OF TERMS
SECTION 1: TITLE
This Document shall be known asARCHITECTSGUIDELINES ONMETHODS
OF COMPENSATION AND SCHEDULE OF FEES, UAP DOC.208-A (replacing the
1979 DOC. 208-b)METHODS OF COMPENSATION &THE CONSOLIDATION ON
METHODS OF COMPENSATION & SCHEDULE OF FEES ON ALL TYPES OFARCHITECTURAL SERVICES.
SECTION 2: RATIONALE
2.1 The urgent need to set the parameters on Architects Guidelines on Methods of
Compensation and Schedule of Fees is paramount to the Architect in the
practice of his profession. This will standardize the ranges for which the Client
will compensate an Architect in direct relation to the value of services that the
Architect provides.
2.2 The professional competence of the Architect must be well established andadequate to meet the Clients needs and requirements.In order to grow andprogress in his career the Architect must possess the appropriate knowledgeand skills needed to be proactive,he must gained the training, exposure andrelevant experience in order to deliver the project at par to the satisfaction of theClient.
2.3The purpose of the Architects Guidelines is to complement existing professional
regulatorylaws governing the practice State-regulated, specifically architectureas governed by R.A. 9266 (The Architecture Act of 2004) and its derivative
regulations, the Code of Ethical Standard, Standards of Professional Practice
and other related laws, policies, rules and regulations approved and
implemented by the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) and/or other
concerned government entities. Therefore nothing in the Guidelinesmust unduly
affect the said laws, policies, rules and regulations, and Architects National
Code (ANC) specifically Codes of Ethical Conduct and Standards of Professional
Practice.

SECTION 3: OBJECTIVES
3.1By law, the Architect must first belicensed and registered by the PRC and UAP-IAPOA respectively. As such, the standards andparameters, to which theArchitect who offer and/or make his services available, are adhered to in order to
develop and nurture the competencies, credibility and integrity of the Architect inthe practice of his profession.
3.2 The common practice of the Architect to determine his compensation on aproject-based fee structures were often estimated through the percentage of theproject cost as indicated on theSchedule on Minimum Basic Fees under theRegular Design Services, UAP Doc. 202. However, with the evolvement of newtechnology, the complexity andlarge scale development projects and uniquenessof many building projects, the most common practice is lump sum fee based onthe project cost, complexity and deliverables, and also had led to the use ofseveral trends in calculating compensation for architectural services in order to
meet changing Client expectations and improve the economic performance ofthe Architect.
3.3Integrity, good performance and deliveryof the project on time to the satisfaction
of the Client maintains a long-term Architect-Client relationshipsthat will lead to
the success of the Architect in the practice of his profession.
SECTION 4: POLICY STATEMENT
Architects should perform professional services only when they are qualified by

RULE II
METHODS OF COMPENSATION
SECTION 1: CRITERIA
The criteria for computing the Architects compensation should be based on mutual
evaluation of the amount of the Architectural firms talents, skill, experience,
imagination, effort and time available for, and required by the project.
1.1 The method of compensation should:
a. Be fair to the Architect in that it should permit him to recover his costs andnet him an adequate profit, provided he is reasonably efficient.
b. Be fair to the Client and the Architect by reflecting the value of theArchitects services.
c. Be flexible to protect the Architect from cost increases because of changesor the scope of the commission.
d. Not create legal problems for the Architect.e. Encourage the Client to be cooperative and supportive.f. Provide incentive for the Architect to produce the highest design quality.g. Be easy to understand and simple use.h. Provide a basis for the Client to pre-determine his costs for architectural
services, and be otherwise acceptable to him.i. Encourage the Architect to develop a solution which will result in the lowest
possible construction cost consistent with the Clients requirements.j. Not focus the Clients attention on price, but rather on the quality and
performance of the Architects services.k. Protect the Architect against the rising costs of providing services during the
course of a commission.
1.2. The computation of the compensation of fees shall depend on the type ofservices to be rendered and the conditions under which they are to be
performed. Compensation for services that require only one kind of expertise orrelated types of expertise shall be treated differently from those services thatrequire the use of more than one type of expertise.
1.3 Compensation of an Architect may be computed based on one or acombination of the following methods, with modifications applicable to the typesof services and/ or specific cases, if and when needed.
SECTION 2: METHODS OF COMPENSATION
-
7/25/2019 ARCHITECTS GUIDELINES - UAP doc 208-A.pdf
24/63
-
7/25/2019 ARCHITECTS GUIDELINES - UAP doc 208-A.pdf
25/63
This method is based on the total rate cost of Architect, Consultantand hisstaff multiplied by a factor from 1.5 to 3.0 as a multiplier plus cost ofcertain items that are reimbursable to the Architect classified underDirect Cost or Reimbursable Expenses.
The following formula is used to compute the total fee:
Total Fee = Rate Cost x Multiplier + Reimbursable Expenses
Assume:
A = Architects rate / hour
C = Consultants rate / hour
T = Rate per hour of Technical Staff, Researchers and other involved in theProject
N = No. of hours
AN, CN, TN = No. of hours spent by Architect,. Consultants and Technical
Staff
Rate Cost = AN + CN +TN
Multiplier - from 1.5 to 3.0 depending on office set-up of Architect and complexity
of the Project.Multiplier to take care of overhead and reasonable profit.
Reimbursable Expenses - such as transportation, housing and living
allowance of Consultant, transportation, per diem, housing and living
allowance of local consultants and technical staff if assigned to place over
100km. from area of operation of the Architect.
Cost of printing of extra set of drawings, reports, maps, contract
documents, etc. over the seven (7) copies submitted to the Client;
overseas and long distance calls; technical and laboratory tests, licenses,
fees and taxes, needed by the Project.
(d) Professional Fee plus reimbursable expenses - This method ofcompensation is frequently used where there is continuing relationship ona series of Projects. It establishes an agreed lump sum over and abovethe reimbursement for the Architects technical time and overhead. Anagreement on the general scope of the work is necessary in order to setan equitable fee.
(e) Fixed/Lump sum payment This method of compensation may beused when the scope of services required can be clearly and fully defined.
-
7/25/2019 ARCHITECTS GUIDELINES - UAP doc 208-A.pdf
26/63
Two methods may generally be used to arrive at a lump-sumcompensation for the basic services:
1. The first is the computation of a lump-sum as an appropriatepercentage of the estimate total cost of the project.
2. The second is direct development of a fixed amount of compensationby estimating the individual elements of the cost outlines, plus areasonable margin of profit, all expressed as a single lump-sum.
These two methods are frequently used concurrently with one serving asa check to the other.
Where compensation is given on a lump-sum basis, the agreementsshould contain a clearly stated time limit during which the services will beperformed, and a provision for additional compensation for extra timeused. In design assignments, these should be a provision for charges
required after the approval of preliminary designs, with a clearunderstanding as to where the final approval authority lies. Which meansthat there are changes made by the Client either during the design orconstruction stage that add costs not only to the construction but also thework of the Architect, thus for every change in the work, the Architect andthe Client will have to supplement their contract to stipulate the additionalfee and time involved.
(f) Percentage FeeThis is a world-wide used method of compensation forarchitectural services. The amount of the percentage is related to the sizeand the type of the Project. This method is fair to both the Client and theArchitect as the fee is pegged to the cost of the Project the Client is willingto undertake. It is flexible and easy to apply since if there will be changes,additions or deductions of the work demanded by the Project or requiredby the Client, the Client-Architect agreement need not be supplemented.
(g) Mixed Methods of Compensation This document provide for morethan one methods of compensation on a project. Each project should beexamined to determine the most appropriate method of establishing an
equitable method of compensation between the Architect and the Client.There is no reason that an assortment of compensation methods shouldnot be used if appropriate in a single project.
For example, Pre-Design Services and Construction Work Services couldbe compensated on a multiple of Direct Personnel Expense, while theRegular and Specialized Allied Design Services could be paid on aPercentage of Construction Cost basis.
(h) Unit Cost Method The remuneration under this method is based on
cost per square meters of the project such as room, store, buildings orother unit. Example, office planning and interior design which is the sameunit used in lease rates and tenant allowances in commercial building.Other like hotel projects is often based on cost per square meter.
-
7/25/2019 ARCHITECTS GUIDELINES - UAP doc 208-A.pdf
27/63
However, unit cost estimating requires accurate and timely data on thecost of providing services for each unit and renovation of unit requiresmore service effort than those new unit.
(i) Based Value Pricing The remuneration under this method is a
valuepricing based on the outcome of revenue, cost and profitabilityresult of a project engagements or based on a measurable profit onspecific Clients. Examples of such metrics include sales in retail facilities,leasing in housing or commercial office/residence developments.
NOTES:
1) It is important that prior to the start of any project or commission, aProfessional Service Agreement is necessarily be approved mutually byArchitect and the Owner/Client. The standard practice for rendering RegularDesign Services is to request for a five percent (5%) Mobilization Fee of theagreed amount upon signing of the Professional Service Agreement.
2) Owner/Client shall make payments upon request of the Architect within seven(7) calendar days from the submission of the statement of the account.
3) Should the Owner/Client prefers to engage the Architect for ArchitecturalServices only and separately hire the services of Allied Professional and/or
Specialist Consultant their professional fees shall be for the account of theClient. In such case, the fee of the Architect for coordinating and relating thework of the Allied Professional and/or Specialist Consultant to the designconcept of the Architect will be five percent (5%) of the Allied Professionaland/or Specialist Consultants feeaside from his fees from Regular DesignServices.
4) The Architect is the prime professional for having a contract directly with theClient/Owner for professional services and responsible for directing the teamof the Allied Professional/ Specialist Consultants.
5) For government projects, the selection of Professional Consulting Architectshall be in accordance with the relevant provisions of R.A. No. 9184,otherwise known as the Government Procurement Reform Act of 2003. BasicFee(BF) shall be integrated Architectural and Engineering Services into one(1) contract.

a. Award Fee Provisions-The Construction Manager has the opportunity toobtain an award fee of specified maximum size ifthe measured cost-related values meet or exceedthe specified target values.
b. Price Adjustment Provision-The contract price is adjusted upward ordownward in accordance with a prearrangedformula.
c. Operating and support cost factor provisionprovides a direct incentive on operating and
support costs.
(2) For the later stages of a project, contract typesare used to encourage better constructionmanagement services. The preceding types ofcontracts for construction management servicesare used according to gross estimates andcomplexity of work.
a. Firm Fixed Price -The Owner will pay the Construction Manager afixed fee. The fee will be unaffected byvariations between the estimate and the bids or bychange orders during the construction phaseunless the Owner initiates an increase in scope.

SECTION 3: Bank: Collecting Agent
3.1 It is important to remember that compensation terms dont mean much
without the ability to collect payment on a timely basis. Architects can often
overlook the importance of collections in negotiating contracts and
managing projects and client relationships. Collection usually needs to be
addressed by firm principals with their Client counterparts. Even the best
accounting staff cannot overcome high-level misunderstandings about
payment obligations. Through assigning the bank as a collecting agent,collection of payments for the architect will be simplified.
3.2 Client may pose collection of compensation payment through banks as
agreed by both Clients and Architects.
SECTION 4: Interest Due on Late Payment of Fees

Comparative Estimates between Percentage on Regular Basic Fee and Basic Fee on persq. meter basisExample: A Client wants to build a Shopping Center(commercial building) in the amount ofP 20 million (Project Construction Cost)
Schedule of Regular Basic Fee (IntegratedArchitectural & Engineering Services - A&E)This will fall under Group 2 7% of Probable ProjectConstruction Cost (PPCC).
Based on current valuation of Project Construction Costthe amount is P20,000.00 per sq. meter. Thus the areaof the building with a Project Construction Cost of P20million will be 1,000 sq.meters.
Particular:20,000,000.00 = 1,000 sq.meters
20,000.00
Basic Fee on per square meter basis(P1,000.00 per sq. to P1,500.00 per sq. meter)
Based on current valuation of Project Construction Costthe amount is P20,000.00 per sq. meter. Thus the areaof the building with a Project Construction Cost of P20million will be 1,000 sq.meters.
Particular:
1,000 sq.m.x 1,000.00 per sq.m. = P1,000,000.00To
1,000 sq.m.x 1,500.00 per sq.m. =P1,500,000.00

NOTES:
The Comparative Estimates between the Percentage on Regular Basic Fee is within the range on theBasic Fee per sq. meter basis as shown.
However the computation of Basic Fee per sq. meter is possible only on the current valuation of ProjectConstruction Cost of the Building as of 2011. Thus the increase on Project Construction Cost must beproportional to theamount of Basic Fee per sq. meter.
