SUBJECT: Procurement of Architect-Engineer Services
A recent review of the snyopses appearing in Section R of the
Commerce Business Daily (the Architect-Engineer section)
indicates that several agencies are using the Public Law
92-582 (Brooks Bill) process to procure professional services
other than professional architect-engineer services.
The statutory definition of professional architect-engineer
services contained in Public Law 92-582 has been further
defined in Comptroller General Decision B-184770 of March 9,
1977, as those services that generally require performance by
a licensed architect or engineer and which concern Federal
construction and related programs such as alterations and
renovation projects. The use of the Public Law 92-582
procurement process should be limited to those services
meeting the Comptroller General's definition. Such services
normally involve or are incident to the preparation or
submission of designs, plans, drawings or specifications for
construction projects.
Services performed by architects or engineers other than those
defined in the Comptroller General's decision as "professional
architect-engineer services" should be procured pursuant to
standard procurement procedures; i.e., price should be con-
sidered in the selection process. The amount or degree of
consideration given to price in the selection process will, of
course, vary depending on the nature of the procurement and
should be clearly specified in the selection and evaluation
criteria for
