Effective Cost Management through the appointment of a professional Quantity Surveyor is essential to any successful project.
We provide clients with the highest degree of cost certainty possible at each stage of a project. Clients are made aware of the following:
- The overall expected out turn costs of the project
- When the money is to be expended
- What the current expenditure and liabilities are
- Where changes can be made to enhance the value obtained from the project
- What the present risks are
- The contractual and commercial arrangements that are required to be in place.
When clients appoint our teams to cost manage their project they can be confident that they will be regularly appraised of the financial position.
We shall then provide a comprehensive commercial and financial service covering all aspects of the project in order for the client to make informed decisions and develop the project strategies in the right direction.
We implement innovative construction procurement routes including partnering and various other methods of fast-tracking and risk-sharing. This knowledge will ensure that the route chosen will align with the client’s business case and deliver the project they require when they require it.
With proven experience across a range of industry sectors. We are committed to providing independent and effective construction cost management and strategic procurement and contract advice. By controlling costs through the duration of a project our professional services enable informed decision making and the improved management and mitigation of risk.
