Establishing an architectural office: Corporations

In many cities, a corporation may be formed by architects. Simply explained, the corporation is a theoretical employer organization and all members (stockholders) are employees with financial responsibility limited by the amount of their investment. When a partnership becomes so large or unwieldy that efficient operation becomes difficult, the partners may decide that a corporation type office with its benefits, would be very interesting.

A corporation is formed by obtaining approval of articles of incorporation from the Securities and Exchange Commission, a charter from the city establishing a board of directors, and electing a slate of controlling officers. A stock issue is provided and may be common stock or preferred stock, the latter having priority or preference when dividends are declared. Stock may have an initial par value or no value and the investors either buy shares, or acquire them by their monetary interest in the office. This cash inflow provides the starting finances for the corporation. The board of directors and elected officers are responsible for the efficient operation of the corporation and all persons work for the corporation as employees and receives a salary, plus stock dividends, plus a bonus, if profits are more than those expected. Market value of stock fluctuates up or down from issue price depending upon amount of dividend or other indications of profitable operation and may not be indicated in stock market quotations.

Financial and size advantages are more rather obvious. With a greater number of stockholders, there is more money with which to work. As a large organization, it is possible to have more employees and more bigger work. Diversification of skills or abilities is also more possible. Departmentalization may also result, again bringing larger and more varied types of projects.

Proper business methods may bring a good return on any investment. All of this large work, larger office, and less personal in-office contact may lead to a feeling of factory workers, and stifled ambitious younger people. With a larger group of principals, it generally works out that individuals develop considerable personal skills in a particular area rather than improving over the entire field, and while some people do not object to a human boss, they do not like to be supervised by a corporation.

Bigness as related to a corporation, has its advantage and its disadvantage. From the standpoint of the client, the large corporate office generally has the advantage of being able to provide expert knowledge in a number of fields, a client wishing to build a special manufacturing plant probably will have better results with a large office with specialized interests, and most such offices are organized as corporations. From the standpoint of the employee, exposure in a large corporate office will give him a much different feel for projects than is generally possible in a small office. This may be good or bad, depending upon the individual. A by-product of a large corporate office may be the better understanding of business as it relates to the design professions.

Establishing an Architectural Office: Partnerships

A partnership is an unincorporated association of two or more persons or entities to operate a business with the intention of making a profit. It is a single business owned by two or more people. Unless defined in a partnership agreement, all aspects of the business are typically divided equally among each partner. The partnership, however, is not a separate legal entity that is distinct from the partners.

Partnerships are formed by registering the business as a partnership with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and with the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC)- Professional Regulatory Board of Architecture (PRBoA). Typically, the legal name of the business is required to be the names of the individual partners.

This form of office organization may be considered in two major types: two or more equal active partners, or a senior or a junior partner. Partnerships exist where all partners are registered and licensed architects, where partners are architects and engineers or any allied professional, or even where only person is a registered architect but the other partners are contractors, lawyers, or good businessman in related fields. The law however requires, that the registered architect or architects in the partnerships shall hold the majority share (75%) of the firm. Which is best will greatly depend upon the qualifications, financial status, capabilities and interest of the partners.

Partnerships are more complex than proprietorships. A partnership agreement should be in writing and should address issues such as the following:

• financial (capital) contributions of the partners
• responsibility and authority of the partners
• fiduciary duties of the partners
• liabilities of the partners
• operation and management of the partnership
• distributions of profit and loss
• transferability of interests
• admission of new partners
• resolution of disputes
• dissolution of the partnership

The most obvious advantage of a partnership is the fact that more than one practitioner means more cash – backing more actual hands or bodies to do the work, more minds to think out the problems, and more client contacts that may be made. In a well-developed partnership, the various phases of the work are as equally divided as is possible, each responsible of the portion delegated to him. The partners may be equal by virtue of the equal investments in the business, or may be unequal unequal due to unequal investment.

Regardless of the amount of investment, unless special responsibility is agreed upon, all partners are responsible for the debts of the partnership, and a contractual agreement by one partner binds all partners. Certainly wihtout a good agreement or confidence in partners, it might be an undesirable situation at times. This is the disadvantage wherein all liabilities are shared by the partners. Each partner has liability for all of the business and professional liability debts of the entire partnership jointly and severally. Each partner is not only liable for his or her own actions, but the actions of all the employees and partners within the business. Partners personal assets are also at risk and can be used to satisfy the partnership’s debt, whether or not the individual partner was personally involved. Therefore, should a business vendor or a professional liability claimant make a claim against the partnership, each partners personal assets may be reached to satisfy the claim. An architect considering becoming a partner in a firm should carefully weigh the amount of liability to which he or she will become subject, and whether or not the capital contribution being made might soon be lost to existing creditors and claimants.

Taxes are filed by completing and submitting an “annual information return”, which identifies the income, deductions, gains and losses of the business. Similar to the sole proprietor, all earnings and loses “flow through” to the partners’ personal tax returns.

In a good working partnership, someone needs to be the business-getter, the "front man" who can handle the cash flow and general business phases. Different persons need the ability to design, and to supervise the production work and field construction. Each partner could belong to a different club or service organization in order to have diverse contacts for possible business and probably should live in a different suburban area for the same reason. These things may require some adjustment but probably will benefit the partnership in the end.

In a senior-junior partnership, the arrangement usually starts when an older, established architect begins to feel that he is working too hard, that he has a bright energetic employee, or that he would like to retire in a few years. Most often, the younger partner is a long-time employee who supposedly knows the operation of the office, complements the architect's abilities, and wants to be on his own. The senior partner is the one with the investment. Agreement regarding returns may may be varied, but the senior partner will retain control. If the idea is to provide for ultimate retirement of the older partner, there may be a gradual increase in percentage for the younger partner with a corresponding decrease in the percentage for the one, until, at ultimate retirement, the office belongs to the younger. This may take a considerable period of time of course. While this is often an arrangement between only two men, there is no reason that more than one junior partner cannot be included.

So partnerships sound better than proprietorships? The advantages are that, when properly constituted, the partners expertise complements each of the others. The financial base may be more broad and in greater depth as each partner has some money. The partners will probably live in different client contacts. And with more partners to share the required work necessary for best operation, the amount of extra work time, beyond normal week, may be shortened. The primary disadvantage is that partners may not agree about business after an initial period of "togetherness". The one who attends meetings, play golf, has client oriented lunches, may be considered by the others as having an enjoyable time. Unless strict control over contract signatures and cash flow is maintained, it is possible that unwelcome work situations may result. Several partners may want to work on design with no one interested in production documents or contract administration (estimating, specifications writing, etc.).

Establishing an Architectural Office: Legal Requirements

For anyone wishing to establish an architectural office in the Philippines, here are some notes to consider:

An architectural office or "Architectural Firm" is defined as a sole proprietorship, a partnership or a corporation registered with the proper government agencies.

Section 37 of Republic Act (RA) 9266 states that the practice of architecture is a professional service, admission to which shall be determined upon the basis of individual personal qualifications. However, a firm, company, partnership, corporation or association may be registered or licensed as such for the practice of architecture under certain conditions.

Further, it states that only Filipino citizens properly registered and licensed as architects may, among themselves, or together with allied technical professionals, form and obtain registration as a firm, company, partnership, association or corporation for the practice of architecture. In the case of association or partnership, the architect shall hold the majority of the shares (75%) of the architectural firm. For a corporation, the registered and licensed architects (RLAs) shall compose at least seventy-five percent (75) of the owners, shareholders, members, incorporators, directors, executive officers, as the case may be.

For a single ownership or single proprietorship, the company will have to be registered with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) as well as the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) - Professional Regulatory Board of Architecture (PRBoA). On the other hand, for an association, partnership, or corporation, the company has to be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), as well as the PRC-PRBoA. The office shall also secure a business permit from the municipal or city hall. Furthermore, the business shall also register with the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) for securing official receipts as well as proper reporting of company income and expenditures for tax purposes.

The individual members of such firm, partnership, association or corporation shall be responsible for their individual and collective acts as an entity and as provided by law. The RLA who signs and seals documents shall carry the civil liability as provided by the Article 17 of the Civil Code of the Philippines:
The engineer or architect who drew up the plans and specifications for a building is liable for damages if fifteen (15) years from completion of the structure the same should collapse by reason of a defect in those plans and specifications, or due to the defects in the ground.
The contractor is, likewise, responsible for the damages if the edifice falls, within the same period, on account of defects in the construction or the use of materials of inferior quality furnished by him, or due to any violation of the terms of the contract.
If the engineer or architect supervises the construction, he shall be solidarily liable with the contractor.
The action must be brought within ten (10) years following the collapse of the building.

(Note: the engineer is for the engineering documents, that is civil/structural engineer for structural documents, electrical engineer for electrical documents, mechanical engineer for mechanical documents and so on, while the architect is for the architectural documents)

"Architecture" is the art, science or profession of planning, designing and constructing buildings in their totality taking into account their environment, in accordance with the principles of utility, strength and beauty. In the Philippines, the practice of architecture is limited to registered and licensed architects. 

For a person to be called an Architect, it means that person is professionally and academically qualified, registered and licensed with a Certificate of Registration and Professional Identification Card issued by the Professional Regulatory Board of Architecture and the Professional Regulation Commission, and who is responsible for advocating the fair and sustainable development, welfare and cultural expression of society’s habitat in terms of space, forms and historical context.

The practice of architecture in the Philippines covers the following services which only RLAs can provide:

"General Practice of Architecture" means the act of planning and architectural designing, structural conceptualization, specifying, supervising and giving general administration and responsible direction to the erection, enlargement or alterations of buildings and building environments and
architectural design in engineering structures or any part thereof; the scientific, aesthetic and orderly coordination of all the processes which enter into the production of a complete building or structure performed through the medium of unbiased preliminary studies of plans, consultations, specifications, conferences, evaluations, investigations, contract documents and oral advice and directions regardless of whether the persons engaged in such practice are residents of the Philippines or have their principal office or place of business in this country or another territory, and regardless of whether such persons are performing one or all these duties, or whether such duties are performed in person or as the directing head of an office or organization performing them.

The "Scope of the Practice of Architecture" encompasses the provision of professional services in connection with site, physical and planning and the design, construction, enlargement, conservation, renovation, remodeling, restoration or alteration of a building or group of buildings. Services may
include, but are not limited to:

(a) planning, architectural designing and structural conceptualization;

(b) consultation, consultancy, giving oral or written advice and directions, conferences, evaluations, investigations, quality surveys, appraisals and adjustments, architectural and operational planning, site analysis and other pre-design services;

(c) schematic design, design development, contract documents and construction phases including professional consultancies;

(d) preparation of preliminary, technical, economic and financial feasibility studies of plans, models and project promotional services;

(e) preparation of architectural plans, specifications, bill of materials, cost estimates, general conditions and bidding documents;

(f) construction and project management, giving general management, administration, supervision, coordination and responsible direction or the planning, architectural designing, construction, reconstruction, erection, enlargement or demolition, renovation, repair, orderly removal, remodeling,
alteration, preservation or restoration of buildings or structures or complex buildings, including all their components, sites and environs, intended for private or public use;

(g) the planning, architectural lay-outing and utilization of spaces within and surrounding such buildings or structures, housing design and community architecture, architectural interiors and space planning, architectural detailing, architectural lighting, acoustics, architectural lay-outing of mechanical, electrical, electronic, sanitary, plumbing, communications and other utility
systems, equipment and fixtures;

(h) building programming, building administration, construction arbitration and architectural conservation and restoration;

(i) all works which relate to the scientific, aesthetic and orderly coordination of all works and branches of the work, systems and processes necessary for the production of a complete building or structure, whether for public or private use, in order to enhance and safeguard life, health and property and the promotion and enrichment of the quality of life, the architectural design of engineering structures or any part thereof; and

(j) all other works, projects and activities which require the professional competence of an architect, including teaching of architectural subjects and architectural computer-aided design;
