3. Actual Cost Estimating and Preparation of Bills of Quantities

We specialize in the appraisal of actual construction costs as well as in the preparation of detailed bills of quantities to inform investors, developers, and builders of the actual cost of the project. This essential document helps you forecast expenses, assists in tendering, and serves as a contract reference for cost control.

Our real estate quantity surveyors and construction cost consultants assist in the tendering process by preparing tender documents, evaluating contractor bids, and recommending the selection of contractors or suppliers while meeting your project’s quality and budgetary requirements.

5. Project Cost Value Engineering

For construction projects whose cost is beyond budget, we propose value engineering models and opportunities to optimize costs without sacrificing the quality or functionality of the real estate construction projects.

6. Appraisal of Variations and Management

When changes or variations to the construction project scope arise, our real estate quantity surveyors and construction cost consultants assess their impact on project costs, negotiate changes with contractors, and maintain proper documentation for financial accountability.

7. Contract Administration

Additionally, we take part in contract administration and contract management at the supervision stage of the construction project, including preparing financial appraisals, preparing valuations for work done, and cost control management.

8. Cost Risks Management

With an evolving real estate market and emerging trends, we identify and manage potential financial risks associated with real estate construction projects and appraise strategies to mitigate risks and maintain the construction project within budget.

9. Settlement of Final Account

At the conclusion of a real estate construction project, we prepare the financial final accounts of the project by ensuring that all construction project costs are accurately documented and resolve any disputes related to payments or project costs.
