What we measure

Seven services. Take one of them, or take all of them.

A Ballarat builder does not need a different service list. It needs the same one, delivered on time.

Assume nothing. Believe no one. Check everything.
Seven services
01 Bill of Quantities (BOQ) Every trade measured, in trade format. Ready to be sent to your trades for RFQ.
02 Full Estimates and Contract Estimating We sit in your estimating chair for the tender, through to submission.
03 Cost Planning and Value Management Options priced side by side, so the design decision is made on numbers.
04 Trade-Specific Takeoffs A single package measured on its own, for subcontractors pricing one trade.
05 Contract and Scope Review Documentation read for the gaps. Where it’s silent, we flag it.
06 Budgeting and Benchmarking Early budgets built off measured rates from comparable completed work.
07 Early Contractor Involvement (ECI) Rated cost plans while the design is still moving, before there is a set to measure.

What the record shows

What it does not show
The jobs still at tender, and the ones we are not free to name.
