Prepared by the Engineers Joint Contract Documents Committee (EJCDC).

The EJCDC® D-615 Payment Bond—Design-Build is a trusted and comprehensive legal instrument designed to ensure payment security and financial accountability in design-build construction projects. It guarantees that the Design-Builder and Surety are jointly and severally obligated to cover costs for labor, materials, and equipment, protecting subcontractors, suppliers, and the Owner from claims, liens, or suits. This standardized bond form minimizes legal risks, offers peace of mind, and ensures compliance with statutory requirements, while being fully customizable to meet project-specific needs. Part of the EJCDC Design-Build Series, it provides financial assurance, legal clarity, and streamlined processes for all parties involved.

EJCDC includes the American Society of Civil Engineers, the American Council of Engineering Companies, the National Society of Professional Engineers, and the participation of more than fifteen other professional engineering design, construction, owner, legal, and risk management organizations.
