It specifies suitability criteria such as limited cost and duration, minimal coordination needs, and a relatively straightforward change and claims process. It also explains integration guidance, including when to use it as a stand-alone form, which related EJCDC documents to avoid together with C522, and how to handle insurance and potential modifications.","This document has important legal consequences; consultation with an attorney is encouraged with respect to its use or modification.

This Contract is appropriate for projects where:\nThe construction cost is $500,000 or less, the scheduling for the Work is relatively simple with few constraints, scheduled duration is less than 12 months, and little coordination is required with entities other than the Engineer, Owner, and Contractor.\nThe change and claims process is relatively simple. If it is anticipated there could be significant changes to the Work in response to differing site conditions, client requirements, or other factors, it is recommended that EJCDC® C\u001e520, Agreement Between Owner and Contractor for Construction Contract (Stipulated Price) (2018) or EJCDC® C\u001e525, Agreement Between Owner and Contractor for Construction Contract (Cost-Plus-Fee) (2018) be used, together with the comprehensive EJCDC® C\u001e700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract (2018).\nThere is little chance of changed or differing site conditions.\nNo hazardous environmental conditions are anticipated.\nSubstitutions for material or equipment will be handled through the change order process.\nThere is no assignment to Contractor of an equipment purchase contract entered into by Owner.\nThe Contract Documents do not delegate any professional design services to the Contractor.\nThere is little need for coordination with others working at the Site, other than for incidental tasks such as routine utility relocations (see Paragraph 7.03).\nThe Engineer is involved with the review of submittals, interpretation of the documents, and development of change orders that affect the design of the Project.\nC\u001e522 provides that builder’s risk insurance and/or property insurance will be provided by the Contractor. If the Owner wants to provide this insurance, the Contract will need to be modified.\nOTHER DOCUMENTS\nC\u001e522 is intended to be used as a stand-alone document. It contains the core elements of an Owner-Contractor agreement form (such as identification of the parties, Contract Price, and Contract Times) as well as essential general terms and conditions. Thus if C\u001e522 is used, do not use the EJCDC agreement forms (C\u001e520 or C\u001e525), or the Standard General Conditions, C\u001e700.\nC\u001e522 has not been fully integrated with other EJCDC documents. For example, terms used in C\u001e522 may differ somewhat from corresponding terms in other EJCDC documents. Other EJCDC® C-series documents, such as EJCDC® C\u001e200, Instructions to Bidders for Construction Contract (2018), and EJCDC® C\u001e800, Supplementary Conditions of the Construction Contract (2018), are wr","cbCaipie0OfnmQHA","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaipie0OfnmQHA","docx",531979,32,"English","en",105,"# PURPOSE AND INTENDED USE OF THE DOCUMENT\n## OTHER DOCUMENTS\n## ORGANIZATION OF INFORMATION\n## GUIDANCE NOTES AND NOTES TO USER","[{\"question\":\"What types of small projects is EJCDC C522 intended for?\",\"answer\":\"It is intended for smaller, less complex projects such as small water and wastewater utilities, roads and paving, drainage improvements, and site development.\"},{\"question\":\"When is it recommended to use other EJCDC contract documents instead of relying only on C522?\",\"answer\":\"If significant changes are anticipated due to differing conditions or requirements, the document recommends considering EJCDC C520 or C525 together with the standard general conditions in C700.\"},{\"question\":\"Can C522 be used with other EJCDC document series like D-series or P-series?\",\"answer\":\"No. The document states it must not be used under any circumstances with Design-Build (D-series) or Procurement (P-series) documents.\"}]","CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION OF A SMALL PROJECT -
