SINGAPORE: The Singapore Institute of Architect s on Thursday launched a blueprint in a bid to stem long-standing issues plaguing the profession.
The framework, which will be constantly updated with changes in the industry, is a “clarity of scope” document that spells out the work that a typical architect will have to take, said SIA president Melvin Tan.“By doing so, we hope that architects across will have a level playing field. They will understand the type of work they need to undertake and hopefully eradicate fee-diving,” Mr Tan added.
'At 6pm, it feels like it’s lunchtime': Low pay, long hours driving away Singapore's young architect hopefuls “One of the main issues that we also face is the fact that without commensurate fees, a lot of work is being done by the architects, perhaps ‘scope creep’ - things that add on to the project without us even being able to charge fees for,” Mr Tan said.
Mr Tan noted that as the built environment has grown more complex over the years, architects are getting more work without understanding the full amount of work they must do.
