Bills of quantities and quantity take-off
Measured quantities, not guesses.
Quantities drive the price, the programme and every variation. We measure from the drawings to the method of measurement in your contract and keep the take-off traceable, so every figure can be checked.
For variations we compare the revised drawings with the contract drawings and price the difference using the contract rates, or build up new rates where none apply.
What we prepare
- Quantity take-off from drawings
- Bills of quantities for tender
- Interim valuation support
- Variation measurement and pricing
- New rate build-ups
- MEP quantities: cables, containment, ductwork, pipework
How we work on it
Traceable
Every quantity links back to a drawing and a location.
Method of measurement
POMI, CESMM, SMM7, NRM or the contract's own rules.
MEP as well
Electrical and mechanical quantities by engineers of those trades.
When contractors call us
Typical situations where this service saves time, money or entitlement.
- The tender is due and the quantities have not been measured.
- Revised drawings changed the scope and the variation must be priced.
- Interim valuations are disputed line by line.
- MEP quantities in the tender BOQ look far too low.
Questions
Do you work from CAD or PDF?
Both. CAD and BIM models give faster and more accurate results.
Can you check a BOQ prepared by others?
Yes, a check of quantities and descriptions against the drawings and specification.
