The Engineers Joint Contract Documents Committee (EJCDC®) is a coalition of stakeholders in the project delivery process who develop and endorse quality contract documents. EJCDC® is a joint venture of three major organizations of professional engineers including:

  • The American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC)
  • The National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE)
  • The American Society of Civil Engineers – Construction Institute (ASCE)

EJCDC® has existed since 1975 to develop and update fair and objective standard documents that represent the latest and best thinking in contractual relations between all parties involved in engineering design and construction projects. EJCDC® represents a major portion of the professional groups engaged in the practice of providing engineering and construction services for engineer-led constructed projects, and includes the participation of more than 15 other professional engineering design, construction, owner, legal, and risk management organizations.

EJCDC® encourages the use of its standard contract documents for the benefit of all parties involved in engineering design and construction projects. Any change or modification to the language of a document should be reviewed by legal counsel before using. Users should also be aware that a change in one document may affect related documents and should be coordinated in order to avoid confusing or conflicting language.

Testimonials

KJ has used EJCDC® documents for all types of contracts, for public and private projects, and for various project delivery systems because we believe EJCDC® documents are well-written, well-organized, and complete. EJCDC® documents fairly allocate risk to the parties involved in construction and fully cover more topics, particularly relative to public work, than do other standard-form contract documents.
