DescriptionThere are two roles to play in this negotiation 1) the client, Big Corp and 2) the design professional Inland Architects.

You’ll spoil the fun. To prepare for this negotiation, read the following scenario details:You are the director of construction services for Big Corp, Inc., a major US telecom company.The contract you will be negotiating is the standard contract you use for all A&E firms. It’s tough, you know it’s tough and you don’t usually give in to client requests for concessions. However, twice recently you have selected a highly qualified A&E but been unable get them under contract because they would not agree to your terms & conditions. You eventually contracted with other firms who would agree to your terms & conditions but you have not been satisfied with the quality from these firms.You selected Inland Architects based on their strong qualifications. They really blew you away in their technical presentation, and you were impressed with the quality of their staff when you visited their home office. The bottom line is you want to get this firm under contract. You don’t want to appear soft or roll over, but you’ll accept any reasonable modifications, if that’s what it takes to get Inland Architects on contract.Read the contract and identify the areas in which you think Inland Architects will most likely ask for changes.
