1. Purpose.
a. This pamphlet provides guidance and procedures for contracting for architect-engineer (A-E) services in accordance with the Brooks Architect-Engineer Act and the acquisition regulations referenced below. The guidance and procedures in this pamphlet promote fair, efficient and consistent A-E contracting practices throughout the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE).

However, this EP is not intended to cover all aspects of the A-E contracting process and should not be used as a substitute for the current acquisition regulations (the FAR system) which provide procurement policy. If a conflict arises between this pamphlet and the acquisition regulations, the acquisition regulations govern.
2. Applicability. This pamphlet applies to all USACE commands authorized to procure A-E services, and to all USACE programs.
