QUANTITY SURVEYOR

Pre-Construction & Estimating

• Cost Planning & Feasibility: Assess initial project concepts, conduct feasibility studies, and determine if a project is financially viable.
• Take-Offs: Accurately measure and calculate the quantity of required materials, labor, and time directly from blueprints and design drawings.
• Bills of Quantities (BOQ): Prepare comprehensive BOQs to provide contractors with a detailed list of materials, parts, and labor needed.
• Tendering: Prepare tender packages, analyze bids submitted by contractors and subcontractors, and assist in vendor selection

Contract & Procurement Management

• Contract Administration: Help draft, evaluate, and negotiate contract terms, conditions, and schedules with clients and subcontractors.
• Procurement: Source materials, manage subcontractor orders, and ensure all suppliers offer the best value.
• Risk Management: Identify, weigh, and track commercial risks, and implement strategies to mitigate them

Construction & Cost Control

• Budget Tracking: Continuously monitor and control project budgets in real-time, forecasting costs and updating financial plans as designs change.
• Valuations: Conduct site visits to assess and value the progress of construction, and certify interim payments for contractors based on work completed.
• Variation Orders: Evaluate and negotiate the cost of design changes, extra works (variations), and change orders

Post-Construction

• Final Accounts: Reconcile all project costs, process final payments, and close financial records at the end of the build.
• Dispute Resolution: Advise on legal and contractual matters, and assist in mediating or resolving disputes between parties.
• Lifecycle Costing: Provide data on ongoing maintenance costs to ensure the building remains economical long after it is built.
