A201/CMa is an adaptation of AIA Document A201 and has been developed for construction management projects where a forth player-A construction manager-has been added to the team of owner, architect and contractor. Under A201/CMa, the construction manager has the role of an independent adviser to the owner. Thus, the document carries the CMa suffix. A major difference between A201 and A201/CMa occurs in Article 4, Administration of the Contract, which deals with the duties and responsibilities of both the architect and the construction manager-adviser. Another major difference implicit in A201/CMa is the use of multiple construction contracts directly with trade contractors. Caution: it is vital that A201/CMa not be used in combination with documents where it is assumed that the construction manager takes on the role of constructor, gives the owner a guaranteed maximum price or contracts directly with those who supply labor and materials for the project, 1992.
