Summary
AIA Document A304-2024 is used to request contractor qualifications, including from subcontractors and suppliers with minimal edits. The Requester can be anyone, such as an owner, architect, or contractor, and the Owner’s information should be included. The document allows requesters to specify additional information beyond the A305-2020 form by listing attachments, page limits, and other requirements.
Who can be the Requester?
A “Requester” may be any person preparing and inviting contractors to submit the A305™–2020, Contractor’s Qualification Statement (e.g., an owner, architect, or contractor). To the extent that the Requester is not the Owner, the Owner’s information should be entered into Section 1.2 of A304-2024.
Can the A304-2024 be used to request the AIA Contract Document A305-2020 Request for Contractor’s Qualification Statement from subcontractors?
Yes, while A304 is styled as a request for “contractor” qualifications, it can be used to request qualifications from subcontractors and suppliers with minimal edits.
What if the Requester wants contractors to provide more information beyond what the A305-2020 form requires?
Article 3 of A304-2024 allows requesters to list attachments pertaining to the request for qualifications and stipulate page limits and other requirements related to the A305-2020 submittal.
