Describe the major differences between the EJCDC’s and AIA’s construction agreements and General Conditions, and the Concensus Documents’ construction agreement and General Conditions:

EJCDC

It is a Documents Program of

The Engineers Joint Contract Documents Committee was formed in 1975 and today is a joint venture of the National Society of Professional Engineers

AIA:

It is a Documents Program of

The American Institute of Architects was formed in 1857 and issued its first standardized document, a fee schedule, in 1866. 

ConsensusDOCS:

It comprises a group of 20 construction associations that have agreed to cooperate in the production of standard form construction documents representing consensus within a broad spectrum of the construction industry.

Explanation:

MAJOR DIFFERENCE:

1. AIA program contains documents that have to do with projects located outside the United States.

The EJCDC documents contain some forms having to do with environmental remediation, funding, agency finding and procurement.

And the ConsensusDOCS program contains documents that deal with program management.

2. AIA's program has advantage of almost 120 years of evolution, with contract terms being refined in response to court cases and changes in the construction industry.

EJCDC's documents program is now over 30 years old, and its documents are tailored to the needs of its professional engineering members.

Each document of ConsensusDOCS was drafted to reflect the project's best interests, rather than a single party interest.

4. AIA offers hard copy documents for sale in addition to its electronic documents,

EJCDC allows users to print their own original hard copy.

While ConsensusDOCS documents, are available only electronically.

5. AIA's document software allow modification of the model forms for specific projects while preventing unauthorized use.

While EJCDC's electronic documents are available only as Word files and can be purchased as a group on a CD-ROM or downloaded individually from its member websites

The differences are underlined in the operating principle.

Explanation:

The AIA requires direct communication between the cotractor and the owner of the flow. On the other hand, the EJCDC’s does not require direct communication. In contrast to the AIA, the consensus doc do not recognize the design professional as the owner's representative. The consensus do not allow the owner to select a representative. In addition, the consensus removes the design professionals from the construction phase and replacing all the observation, approval, and review of the project directly upon the owner.
