The latest addition to Documents-on-Demand includes documents from the A series for Owner/Contractor and the B series for Owner/Architect. Overall, 41 total agreements and forms are now included in Documents-on-Demand that are specifically suited for contractors and three specifically for sub-contractors.

AIA Documents-on-Demand is a popular, cost effective, Web-based service that enables both PC and MAC users to easily access, electronically fill out, and print the latest AIA Contract Documents anytime and anywhere with access to the Internet and a printer. Last year, more than 35,000 documents were downloaded through Documents-on-Demand.
