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 Architect’s 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 of
Philippine 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 Architect’s National Code into two divisions – namely:
1. Code
and of Ethical Conduct
2. Standards of Professional Practice
On July 21, 1979, the Architect’s 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 Architect’s
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 users
demand, 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 Architect’s 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 ARCHITECT’S 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

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 ARCHITECT’S 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 ARCHITECT’S GUIDELINES on Standards of Professional

ARCHITECTS GUIDELINES - UAP doc 208-A.pdf
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: Architect’s 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 consolidated
reference 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 as“ARCHITECT’SGUIDELINES ONMETHODS

1979 DOC. 208-b)METHODS OF COMPENSATION &THE CONSOLIDATION ON
METHODS
OF COMPENSATION
& SCHEDULE OF FEES ON ALL TYPES OF
ARCHITECTURAL
SERVICES.
SECTION 2: RATIONALE
2.1 The urgent need to set the parameters on Architect’s 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 and
adequate to meet the Client’s needs and requirements.In order to grow and
progress in his career the Architect must possess the appropriate knowledge
and skills needed to be proactive,he must gained the training, exposure and
relevant experience in order to deliver the project at par to the satisfaction of the
Client.
2.3The purpose of the Architect’s Guidelines is to complement existing professional
regulatorylaws governing the practice State-regulated, specifically architecture
as 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 Architect’s National
Code (ANC) specifically Codes of Ethical Conduct and Standards of Professional
Practice.

ARCHITECTS GUIDELINES - UAP doc 208-A.pdf
SECTION 3: OBJECTIVES
3.1By law, the Architect must first belicensed and registered by the PRC and UAPIAPOA respectively. As such, the standards andparameters, to which the
Architect 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 in
the practice of his profession.
3.2 The common practice of the Architect to determine his compensation on a
project-based fee structures were often estimated through the percentage of the
project cost as indicated on theSchedule on Minimum Basic Fees under the
Regular Design Services, UAP Doc. 202. However, with the evolvement of new
technology, the complexity andlarge scale development projects and uniqueness
of many building projects, the most common practice is lump sum fee based on
the project cost, complexity and deliverables, and also had led to the use of
several trends in calculating compensation for architectural services in order to
meet changing Client expectations and improve the economic performance of
the Architect.
3.3Integrity, good performance and deliveryof the project on time to the satisfaction
of the Client maintains a long-term Architect-Client relationships that 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
education, training and or experience in the specific technical areas involved and duly
registered by the PRC-BoA.

RULE II
METHODS OF COMPENSATION
SECTION 1: CRITERIA
The criteria for computing the Architect’s compensation should be based on mutual
evaluation of the amount of the Architectural firm’s talents, skill, experience,
imagination, effort and time available for, and required by the project.
1.1 The method of compensation should:
a.
b.
c.
d.
e.
f.
g.
h.
i.
j.
k.
Be fair to the Architect in that it should permit him to recover his costs and
net him an adequate profit, provided he is reasonably efficient.
Be fair to the Client and the Architect by reflecting the value of the
Architect’s services.
Be flexible to protect the Architect from cost increases because of changes
or the scope of the commission.
Not create legal problems for the Architect.
Encourage the Client to be cooperative and supportive.
Provide incentive for the Architect to produce the highest design quality.
Be easy to understand and simple use.
Provide a basis for the Client to pre-determine his costs for architectural
services, and be otherwise acceptable to him.
Encourage the Architect to develop a solution which will result in the lowest
possible construction cost consistent with the Client’s requirements.
Not focus the Client’s attention on “price”, but rather on the quality and
performance of the Architect’s services.
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 of
services to be rendered and the conditions under which they are to be
performed.
Compensation
services

1.3 Compensation of an Architect may be computed based on one or a
combination of the following methods, with modifications applicable to the types
of services and/ or specific cases, if and when needed.

ARCHITECTS GUIDELINES - UAP doc 208-A.pdf
This method is based on the total rate cost of Architect, Consultantand his
staff multiplied by a factor from 1.5 to 3.0 as a multiplier plus cost of
certain items that are reimbursable to the Architect classified under
“Direct Cost” or “Reimbursable Expenses”.
The following formula is used to compute the total fee:

Total Fee = Rate Cost x Multiplier + Reimbursable Expenses
Assume:
A=
Architect’s rate / hour
C=
Consultant’s rate / hour
T=
Rate
per hour of Technical Staff, Researchers and other involved in the
Project
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 of
compensation is frequently used where there is continuing relationship on
a series of Projects. It establishes an agreed lump sum over and above
the reimbursement for the Architect’s technical time and overhead. An
agreement on the general scope of the work is necessary in order to set
an equitable fee.
(e) Fixed/Lump sum payment – This method of compensation may be
used when the scope of services required can be clearly and fully defined.
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/architects-guidelines-uap-doc-208-apdf
25/63
7/25/2019
ARCHITECTS GUIDELINES - UAP doc 208-A.pdf
Two methods may generally be used to arrive at a lump-sum
compensation for the basic services:
1. The first is the computation of a lump-sum as an appropriate
percentage of the estimate total cost of the project.
2. The second is direct development of a fixed amount of compensation
by estimating the individual elements of the cost outlines, plus a
reasonable margin of profit, all expressed as a single lump-sum.
These two methods are frequently used concurrently with one serving as
a check to the other.
Where compensation is given on a lump-sum basis, the agreements
should contain a clearly stated time limit during which the services will be
performed, and a provision for additional compensation for extra time
used. In design assignments, these should be a provision for charges
required after the approval of preliminary designs, with a clear
understanding as to where the final approval authority lies. Which means
that there are changes made by the Client either during the design or
construction stage that add costs not only to the construction but also the
work of the Architect, thus for every change in the work, the Architect and
the Client will have to supplement their contract to stipulate the additional
fee and time involved.
(f) Percentage Fee–This is a world-wide used method of compensation for
architectural services. The amount of the percentage is related to the size
and the type of the Project. This method is fair to both the Client and the
Architect as the fee is pegged to the cost of the Project the Client is willing
to 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 required
by the Client, the Client-Architect agreement need not be supplemented.
(g) Mixed Methods of Compensation – This document provide for more
than one methods of compensation on a project. Each project should be
examined to determine the most appropriate method of establishing an
equitable
method
compensation
between
the Architectmethods
and the should
Client.
There is no
reasonofthat
an assortment
of compensation
not be used if appropriate in a single project.
For example, Pre-Design Services and Construction Work Services could
be compensated on a multiple of Direct Personnel Expense, while the
Regular and Specialized Allied Design Services could be paid on a
Percentage of Construction Cost basis.
(h) Unit Cost Method – The remuneration under this method is based on
cost
meters
of planning
the project
as design
room, store,
or
otherper
unit.square
Example,
office
andsuch
interior
which buildings
is the same
unit used in lease rates and tenant allowances in commercial building.
Other like hotel projects is often based on cost per square meter.

26/63
7/25/2019
ARCHITECTS GUIDELINES - UAP doc 208-A.pdf
However, unit cost estimating requires accurate and timely data on the
cost of providing services for each unit and renovation of unit requires
more 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 profitability
result of a project engagements or based on a measurable profit on
specific 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, a
Professional Service Agreement is necessarily be approved mutually by
Architect and the Owner/Client. The standard practice for rendering Regular
Design Services is to request for a five percent (5%) Mobilization Fee of the
agreed 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 Architectural
Services only and separately hire the services of Allied Professional and/or
Specialist Consultant their professional fees shall be for the account of the
Client. In such case, the fee of the Architect for coordinating and relating the
work of the Allied Professional and/or Specialist Consultant to the design
concept of the Architect will be five percent (5%) of the Allied Professional
and/or Specialist Consultant’s feeaside from his fees from Regular Design
Services.
4)
The Architect is the prime professional for having a contract directly with the
Client/Owner for professional services and responsible for directing the team
of the Allied Professional/ Specialist Consultants.
5) For government projects, the selection of Professional Consulting Architect
shall be in accordance with the relevant provisions of R.A. No. 9184,
otherwise known as the Government Procurement Reform Act of 2003. Basic
Fee(BF) shall be integrated Architectural and Engineering Services into one
(1) contract.

Comparative Estimates between Percentage on Regular Basic Fee and Basic Fee on per
sq. meter basis
Example: A Client wants to build a Shopping Center(commercial building) in the amount of
P 20 million (Project Construction Cost)
Schedule of Regular Basic Fee (Integrated
Architectural & Engineering Services - A&E)
This will fall under Group 2 – 7% of Probable Project
Construction Cost (PPCC).
Based on current valuation of Project Construction Cost
the amount is P20,000.00 per sq. meter. Thus the area
of the building with a Project Construction Cost of P20
million will be 1,000 sq.meters.
Particular:
20,000,000.00 = 1,000 sq.meters

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 Cost
the amount is P20,000.00 per sq. meter. Thus the area
of the building with a Project Construction Cost of P20
million will be 1,000 sq.meters.
Particular:
1,000 sq.m.x 1,000.00 per sq.m. = P1,000,000.00
To
1,000 sq.m.x 1,500.00 per sq.m. =P1,500,000.00
Amount
P1,400,000,00
P1,400,000.00
NOTES:
•
The Comparative Estimates between the Percentage on Regular Basic Fee is within the range on the
Basic Fee per sq. meter basis as shown.
•
However the computation of Basic Fee per sq. meter is possible only on the current valuation of Project
Construction Cost of the Building as of 2011. Thus the increase on Project Construction Cost must be
proportional to theamount of Basic Fee per sq. meter.
