When To Use
Use B305™ when an architecture firm is responding to a formal request for qualifications (B304) from an owner. An owner may use it as part of the selection process or as a final credential check before or after a contract has been signed.
What It Does
B305 provides architects with a standardized form for presenting professional qualifications to owners evaluating design firms. Owners can then review the information provided in B305 to help in selecting an architect for a project. B305 allows an architect to enter information about its business structure, key personnel, design capabilities, honors and awards, project personnel and consultants, BIM capabilities, sustainability credentials, firm history, number of employees, professional licenses, and much more.
Additional Information
B305 – 2021 is intended to be an initial, general conveyance of information from an architect to an owner. Under some circumstances, an owner may request that the architect provide a proposal with more detailed information as a step between sharing its qualifications and entering into a contract.
