The OAA supports the use of industry standard documents. The use of standard documents allows the parties to concentrate on project specific issues rather than boilerplate sections. To that end, the OAA developed several standard contracts for use with clients and consultants which balance the needs of all parties.

The suite of OAA contracts are organized numerically. OAA 600 is the long form agreement to be used between an OAA Certificate of Practice holder and a client.

There are corresponding usage Guides with instructions for the contracts which provide background information about how to fill in and use the contracts. Please ensure you reference all documents provided below before using this contract.

For additional information, consult the Index to OAA Contracts and Guides and the Contracts for Professional Services page.
