Our Project Delivery Process
My quantity surveying and estimating background helps me look at how the scope, budget and construction work fit together. We can support the project from the first brief through pricing and procurement to site delivery and handover.
1. Understand the brief
We start by talking about what you want to achieve, what designs or information are available, the property, your budget and your timing. Where needed, we coordinate with your architect, designer and consultants.
2. Work Out The Scope
We review the drawings and project information, identify the work involved and clarify what is included. This can include measuring quantities and preparing a bill of quantities.
3. Estimate and tender
We prepare or review estimates, build up rates, assess quotations and help with tender documents and tender comparisons. The detail depends on what drawings, specifications and schedules are available.
4. Plan Procurement
We help obtain and assess quotations from suppliers and subcontractors and plan the ordering of materials and specialist items.
5. Coordinate The Build And Costs
During construction, we work with the project team to monitor progress and costs, coordinate trades, manage changes and valuations, and attend to quality checks and reporting as agreed.
6. Complete And Hand Over
As the work comes to an end, we review outstanding items and help bring together the information needed for handover.
We’ll agree the services for each project based on what you need and the work we’re appointed to do.
Each enquiry is considered on its scope, location, timing and delivery requirements.
