Note that the Letter of Appointment is to confirm what has been agreed or is proposed. When drafting the letter refer to the numbered notes, the Guide to RIBA Agreements 2010 (2012 revision) and adapt the text as appropriate, particularly where the Client is a consumer. The style of the Letter is less important than its contents, which are necessary to complete the terms of the Agreement. However, if the model text is not used, be careful that other wording does not modify or conflict with other provisions of the Agreement. The essential requirement is that all the necessary information is recorded in the Letter and/or in an appendix. Omission of any of the model contents should be considered carefully. Numbered notes 1 For purposes of identification, insert accurate names and addresses of the parties to the agreement. 2Ê /

When the contract documents are ready, send them to the Client. It may be helpful to flag the places where signatures, witnesses or initials are required. The Model Letter of Appointment is mainly explanatory and may help the less experienced Client to understand the scope of the contract. The Model includes an Agreement clause, which when signed by the parties, confirms the contract and its component parts. The Agreement clause is to be deleted where use of a formal Memorandum of Agreement[2] is preferred.
