As a general rule, the fee will be based upon the building type classification. When program changes are significant or if warranted by other conditions, fees noted under those schedules may be increased by up to three percent for basic services. Factors to be considered include: • Age and character of the building • Availability and accuracy of existing plans and specifications • Extent and type of program revisions • Requirement to maintain the building's existing character • Extent of mechanical and electrical involvement Phased construction in occupied buildings may substantially affect the construction schedule. More field observation and coordination may require consideration of additional fees beyond the basic services contract amount.
