• Renumber VA Form 10–6298
Architect-Engineer Fee Proposal, to ‘‘VA
Form 6298,’’ and revise the content in
the form with updated thresholds and
FAR citations.
The above proposed revisions do not
change the currently approved burden

VA Form 6298 can be located at VA
Forms website https://www.va.gov/
vaforms/default.asp.
The Department of Veterans Affairs,
Office of Construction and Facilities

multimillion-dollar construction
program that involves the design and
construction of medical centers, and
other VA facilities including building
improvements and conversions. The
actual construction work is contracted
out to private construction firms.
VA Form 6298 (formerly 10–6298),
Architect-Engineer Fee Proposal: The
use of this form is mandatory for
obtaining the proposal and supporting
cost or pricing data from the contractor
and subcontractor in the negotiation of
all architect-engineer contracts for
design services when the contract price
is estimated to be $50,000 or more. It is
also used in obtaining proposals and
supporting cost or pricing data for
architect-engineer services for research
study, seismic study, master planning
study, construction management and
other related services contracts. A
Contractor Production Report is also
used, but supplemented or modified as
needed for the particular project type.
