AIA® Contracts, Documents, and Forms

If you're looking for digital or downloadable fill-in-able AIA contracts, documents, and forms ... I have some good news!

I priced the AIA's 'packages' recently and found that they can run as high as $2000 and more!

The packages are basically licenses for a certain amount of uses of the form - once you hit that number you have to pay for more uses.

Zoom there goes another $2000+ out of your account…

As an option to the 'packages' they also offer a 'Documents on Demand' service that allows you to purchase individual uses of a digital copy without having to purchase an entire package.

I found that some of their forms are $40 and higher - for ONE use.

Check out PDFfiller. Really.

If you are a "high-volume user" of AIA forms, please take a look at the software below.

Software that fills in hard-copy AIA forms *and* includes AIA-Like forms that'll print in their entirety, for when you don't *have* to use an actual AIA form.

There are several companies that have created software programs that'll fill in your hard copy AIA forms for you.

You use the software to 'fill in' the form on your computer and then put a hard-copy AIA form in your printer and hit print.

Provided it's all lined up well it's almost as good as having digital versions.

It prints the information onto the form and you're good to go.

But some of these software programs offer more…

They come with 'AIA-Like' documents - they aren't the actual thing but close enough to the actual thing that many users of AIA forms are finding that the 'Like' forms are being accepted in place of the actual.

And yet even more…

After much research the software program that I recommend is...

Reasons to handle your AIA forms without the AIA…

Doing your AIA paperwork with the Quantum software program is like having the original electronic forms from the AIA site - but without the outrageous expense.

In addition it saves you from:

• Ruining an expensive AIA form by it not being lined up properly in a typewriter

• An untold amount of wasted time trying to create your own template to fill in your AIA forms - again with the risk of ruining an expensive form on the printer

• Filling in the form by hand with a pen - we all know how professional that looks [not] :o\

The AIA® requires users of its forms to purchase a new copy every single time they need one; unfortunately they charge up the ying-yang for it.

So…

Find a typo on your document?

• Legally you're supposed to buy a new copy, not change the one you you've already filled in

Did something change on the project requiring a change to a document?

• Legally you're supposed to buy a new copy, not change the one you already filled in

Need to re-award a trade because the Sub you already wrote up the contract for, for whatever reason can't do the job?

• Legally you're supposed to buy a new copy, not change the one you already filled in

Just a simple change to a document means you're required to use (and pay for) a whole new blank AIA form to create and print a revision.

I don't know if using white-out and writing in the proper information is allowable to the AIA but most surely it's not good in the eyes of your customers.

At the price the AIA charges for its forms, using a new one every time adds up to 'beaucoup bucks' FAST …

AIA®-Like Documents

When using the electronic AIA-Like documents that are included within this software you'll:

• Enter the information into your computer
  
  
• Save it
  
  
• Print it
  
  
• Watch an entire form print out, the template and your information, onto a plain piece of paper
  
  
• Send it off to the recipient

If you need to make changes it's as simple as editing what you entered, saving it, and printing it again (the entire form will once again print and it'll have your changes).

You can do that as often as you need to because the included AIA-Like forms are unlimited usage - unlike those beyond-outrageously expensive, genuine AIA forms.

If You Absolutely Have To Use Actual, Original AIA Documents…

If you absolutely have to use actual, original AIA documents you still can, and should, use this software program.

It's easy and it allows you to have that professional appearance (instead of typing or handwriting to fill them in):

• Enter the information into your computer and save it

• Place an original AIA document into the printer

• Hit print and the information you entered into your computer will populate the AIA form that you placed in your printer

If you need to make changes it's as simple as editing what you entered and saving it (but you'll have to use a new original AIA document to print the one with changes because of the AIA requirements for using their forms).

An Investment In Your Company

This software program is a minimal investment with the capabilities it has and the time it'll save you. Now you can do things you *want* to do rather than having to drudge through endless paperwork that you *have* to do.

Oddly enough when you look at it, the AIA forms aren't an investment in any way, they're an ongoing cost.

On the other hand the software program will pay for itself over time; especially when you can use AIA-Like documents and also because it'll fill in your AIA forms. An investment in your company...

Unfortunately the AIA forms will continue to cost you every single time you need to use one but that's the AIA's doing.

When a customer wants AIA forms see if you can't instead get them to go for the documents within this software program that very closely resemble the AIA forms.

Let them know that because you'll have to pay for every usage of every document, if they insist on actual AIA documents, the price of the project will increase due to the boost in overhead from the expense of the AIA forms.
