We have commissioned an architect for service phases 1 and 2. In phase 2, we also received an initial cost estimate. This only relates to cost groups 300 and 400.

Is this usual? Or shouldn't cost group 200 also be included?

That probably depends on the order that you a) have placed and b) have paid for, or will still pay for. Which cost groups are you still interested in?

Hello,


I assume you have indeed only commissioned service phases 1 & 2 with regard to the design planning. Then your architect will hardly list the "preparation and development" of the plot for you ;) You should normally be able to inquire about this with your city/municipality as well.

Rhenish greetings

Yes, L1 and L2 have been commissioned. I would have thought that at least rough estimates for 200 and 700 could be made.

Hello,

Didn’t you ask your architect about the scope of the service phases "before" commissioning? Did you make your wishes clear to him?

Service Phase 1 - Basic Evaluation: Clarification of the task Consultation on the overall service requirements Formulation of decision-making aids for the selection of other professionals involved in the planning Summary of results

Service Phase 2 - Preliminary Design: Basic analysis Coordination of target objectives Development of a planning concept including examination of alternative solutions according to the same requirements with graphical representation and evaluation, e.g., tentative graphical representations, rough sketches Integration of services of other professionals involved in the planning Clarification and explanation of urban planning, design, ecology, and economy in creation and use Negotiations with authorities to ensure approval capability Cost estimation

Cost group 700 deals with the topic of ancillary construction costs. If you have commissioned your architect "only" for the preliminary design – and he "only" takes into account the relevant cost groups – he will hardly be required to inform you in writing about expected ancillary construction costs. Whether this is morally appropriate is a completely different matter.

Rhenish regards
