In the AIA Contract Series, which series covers Owner-Architect agreements?

• A. A-series Owner-Contractor Agreements
• B. C-Other agreements
• C. D-Miscellaneous Docs
• D. B-Owner-Architect

Answer: (D)

Think about how the AIA documents are organized: they’re grouped by who is involved and what the agreement covers. The set that handles the relationship between the Owner and the Architect is the B-series. It includes the standard Owner-Architect Agreement and related services documents, outlining scope, responsibilities, and fees for architectural work. So, when the question asks which series covers Owner-Architect agreements, the correct choice is the one that identifies the Owner-Architect relationship as part of the B-series. The other series address other party pairings or miscellaneous documents, not the Owner-Architect contract.
