Cost Management & Quantity Surveying

Effective cost management and quantity surveying starts at the project inception stage and works through the lifecycle of a project.

Determining a budget for a construction project is no small feat and requires an experienced quantity surveyor and cost estimator. It’s their job to assess every aspect of a project, from materials and labour, to equipment, subcontractors, permits, and more. From there, they need to provide a reliable cost estimate that can measured against and updated as a project progress.
