B202-2020

Article 2 of B202™-2020 defines programming and sets forth the architect’s scope of services in a series of iterative steps beginning with an overview of how the architect will administer these services. Programming consists of the architect working with the owner and programming participants to identify priorities, values, goals, and objectives and gathering information to develop performance and design criteria for the project. The architect will provide an initial program document to the owner, and thereafter, develop a final program of project requirements. AIA Document B202–2020 may be used in two ways: (1) incorporated into any owner-architect agreement as the architect’s sole scope of services or in conjunction with other scopes of service documents, or (2) attached to G802™–2017, Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement, to create a modification to an existing owner-architect agreement. B202–2020 is a scope of services document only and may not be used as a stand-alone agreement.
