Where does planning services fall in the architectural service categories?

Regular Services
Special Services
Design and Planning Services
Bidding or Negotiation Phase

The correct answer is: Bidding or Negotiation Phase

Planning services in architecture are typically categorized under Special Services. This classification recognizes that planning involves specific expertise and may not fall within the standard architectural services offered for typical building projects. Planning services often include site analysis, land use studies, and development strategies, which are essential for ensuring that projects align with zoning laws and the community context. While bidding and negotiation are important phases in a project, they generally focus on contractor selection and project financing rather than the initial strategic planning required at the start. Therefore, placing planning services in the Bidding or Negotiation Phase would overlook their critical role in the preliminary stages of architectural projects.
