How many different construction contracts may be included in a single application?
Although DSA does not limit the number of contracts that may be executed under a single application number, it should be noted that multi-prime projects are generally more difficult to administer and to inspect than traditional single-prime projects (where a general contractor is responsible for all subcontractors). Additional inspection time should be allocated and additional construction review by the design professional should be anticipated to deal with an increased number of change orders. These costs are in addition to any construction management costs. (It should also be noted that construction management costs are considered a part of the construction cost for the purpose of DSA fee calculations.
