Architectural design competitions can be a great way to solicit a wide range of ideas and approaches for many large-scale, landmark, or infrastructure projects. Competitions equitably open up a procurement process to all types of architecture practices, large and small. Well-managed competitions encourage transparency and fairness while also allowing for public engagement.
OAA Council has endorsed for Ontario-based competitions the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada’s (RAIC’s) competition documents and guidelines.
