## Frequently asked questions

Common questions about our design-build agreement review

- **Q:** What does this design-build agreement review tool check?
  **A:** It analyzes the single-point responsibility for design and construction, the design standard of care (and whether it imports a fitness-for-purpose obligation), the pricing basis (guaranteed maximum price versus lump sum, including the savings/shared-savings mechanism), how the owner’s program and performance criteria are defined, the change-management process, and the performance warranties. Both parties’ obligations are extracted and listed.

- **Q:** Does it check whether pricing is GMP or lump sum?
  **A:** Yes. The tool identifies whether the contract uses a guaranteed maximum price (with a cost basis, contingency and shared-savings terms) or a fixed lump sum, and flags how cost overruns and savings are allocated between owner and design-builder.

- **Q:** Will it flag the design standard of care?
  **A:** It locates the standard-of-care clause and flags whether it holds the design-builder to ordinary professional care or to a higher fitness-for-purpose/performance guarantee, which can fall outside professional-liability insurance.

- **Q:** How long does the design-build agreement analysis take?
  **A:** Most design-build agreements are analyzed in under 30 seconds.

- **Q:** What file formats can I upload?
  **A:** PDF and Word (DOCX) files are both supported.

- **Q:** Is my design-build agreement data secure?
  **A:** Yes. Your document is transmitted over TLS encryption, processed by AI providers under terms that exclude training on your data, and deleted from our servers within 24 hours.
