Common use of Additional Professional Services Clause in Contracts

Additional Professional Services. If Firm forms a reasonable opinion that any work he/she/it has been directed to perform is beyond the overall scope of this Contract, as set forth in Exhibit B, and as such constitutes extra work (“Additional Professional Services”), he/she/it shall promptly notify County in writing. In the event County finds that such work does constitute Additional Professional Services, County shall so advise Firm and a written Contract Amendment will be executed between the parties as provided in Article 14. Any increase to the Compensation Cap due to Additional Professional Services must be set forth in such Contract Amendment. Firm shall not perform any proposed Additional Professional Services nor incur any additional costs prior to the execution, by both parties, of a written Contract Amendment. Following the execution of a Contract Amendment that provides for Additional Professional Services, a written Work Authorization, which sets forth the Additional Professional Services to be performed, must be executed by the parties. County shall not be responsible for actions by Firm nor for any costs incurred by Firm relating to Additional Professional Services not directly associated with the performance of the Professional Services authorized in this Contract, by a fully executed Work Authorization or a fully executed Contract Amendment thereto.
