Produce estimates that survive construction

Quantity takeoffs, productivity rates, risk allowances, and bid review gates.

intermediate~40 minProject EngineersSite ManagersCost Estimators

Steps

  1. 1Take off quantities from issued-for-construction drawings only, revision-stamped
  2. 2Apply productivity rates from YOUR historical data where possible
  3. 3Price escalation exposure explicitly for long-duration packages
  4. 4Risk register items each carry quantified allowance or explicit exclusion
  5. 5Peer review gate before submit: two challenge questions minimum
  6. 6Post-bid learning loop: estimate vs actual fed back by division

Common Pitfalls

  • ▲Pricing from superseded drawing revisions
  • ▲Allowances hidden inside line items nobody can audit
