Quantity Survey and Estimation
Quantity Survey and Estimation is a service that ensures that the assets of the construction business are used to the maximum benefit for the company, offering the most cost-effective monetary administration for businesses and cost consulting services for clients and builders throughout the entire construction process.
We offer a cost-benefit analysis of the client’s requirements as well as other stakeholders’ decisions. As the building progresses, we evaluate and revise original estimates and contractual obligations depending on extra work and changes. We do not only provide services that are focused on buildings, and civil engineering, we provide services that include heavy engineering, oil and gas, and building engineering services.
Pre- Construction Phase:
The QS evaluates the plans of the ‘designers’ and ‘engineers,’ distinguishes the expenses involved, and then creates a general budget plan for each project activity.
Design Phase:
Throughout this phase, the QS consults with the design team and proposes realistic solutions to ensure that the project stays within the project’s budget.
Tendering Phase:
During this phase, the QS provides advice on tendering and contractual plans, taking into account the client’s needs as well as other information available from the designers. The QS, in collaboration with the project architect, prepares the detailed and final tender estimate.
Construction Phase:
During the construction phase, the QS will prepare payment suggestions to contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers in accordance with the agreement’s requirements. He also considers the financial implications of project modifications, such as delays and variances with contractors and agencies.
Post Construction Phase:
The QS compiles the final financial statements, which detail all legitimate expenses incurred in all areas of the project’s employment.
Thus, these are the various duties and responsibilities of a QS in each of these stages.
