VA6298
Architect—Engineer Fee Proposal
VA Form VA6298 is the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Architect-Engineer Fee Proposal. It is a VA contracting form, not a Veterans benefits application. It sets out an architect-engineer (A/E) firm's proposed employee-hours, hourly salaries and costs for a VA design project, with matching columns for the A/E's figures and VA's. The form says it, or another agreed upon format, is used by VA Resident Engineers to supervise the work and verify the work progression so that the A/E may be paid.
The PDF has 14 pages in six parts: Investigative Services, Schematic Design and Other Related Services; Design Development; Construction Documents; Construction Period Services; Site Visits; and Certifications. It prints OMB Number 2900-0208, an estimated burden of 4 hours and an expiration date of 2/28/2025.

Date, project title and location, name of the architect or engineer, and the estimated number of contract drawings for architectural, site and landscaping, structural and borings, fire protection, heating and air conditioning, plumbing and electrical work.
Salary costs by discipline and role, project management and QA/QC reviews, design staff site trips and design review trips, overhead and profit, and incidental costs such as surveys, soil tests, test borings and reproduction of review documents.
The same salary, trip, overhead, profit and incidental cost layout for each phase. A capitulation adds Parts I to III into a total A/E cost without construction period services or site visits.
Salary costs for answering RFIs during bidding, issuing the For Construction documents, post award RFI, submittal and shop drawing reviews and other CPS tasks, plus record (as built) drawings and specifications and their reproduction costs.
Salary and travel costs for the pre-bid conference, pre-construction conference, on-site progress meetings, site visits, behind wall and above ceiling inspections and final inspections, then a capitulation of the whole A/E proposal.
A Certification of Current Cost or Pricing Data under the Federal Acquisition Regulation, cost accounting disclosure statement certifications, monetary and interim exemption certifications, and concurrence signatures.
Enter the date, project title and location, the A/E's name and the estimated number of drawings by discipline at the top of each part.
For each discipline and role, enter employee-hours, hourly salaries and costs. The form has A/E and VA columns side by side.
The notes say the SOW will dictate how many design staff site trips and design review trips are anticipated. Overhead is entered as a percent of the total salary line and profit as a percent.
Describe each incidental cost, such as surveys, tests, borings and document reproduction, in the detailed description column and enter its cost.
Each part ends in a total, and the two capitulation tables add the parts into a total A/E cost, first without and then with construction period services and site visits.
The form says the Architect-Engineer checks the certification that applies to its enterprise and, if required, provides the substantiating information, then signs the concurrence lines.
You get the real form, filled in a browser tab, with nothing standing between you and the finished PDF.
The form prints DISTRIBUTION: (003C4A)-CC: AE and Proposed File. Neither the PDF nor VA's form page prints a mailing address or an online submission option.
The notes say the 6% fee limitation does not apply to Part I. For Parts II and III they say it applies to Lines 1 to 21 and does not include incidental costs for reproduction. They point to VAAR 836.606-71 and VAAM M836.606-73 for details.
Design Staff Site Trips are trips for site surveying, meeting with COR or end users to gather data and input. Design Review Trips are trips for the AE to present deliverables of a phase as an on-site meeting.
The current edition is dated OCT 2021. It prints OMB Number 2900-0208, an estimated burden of 4 hours and an expiration date of 2/28/2025.
