Our Scope of Service
Our scope of services are threefold in the construction and infrastructure project management:
Cost Estimate
Cost estimate is the approximation of the cost the project or operation.
Once the Architect prepares the scheme design we compute the estimated cost of construction, where the cost is considered against the clients’ budget and cost cutting measures discussed with the Architect if necessary. We also advice on the estimated duration of the project based on the approved design and specifications. Should the cost estimate be acceptable to the client, then working drawings are developed; otherwise the scheme design is revised so that it falls within the client’s budget.
Tendering
This is the process of selecting a contractor to execute the project and involves competitive bidding. We advise on the tendering procedures that are most suitable for the project.
The following options are available:
- Open tendering
- Selective tendering
- Negotiated tender
- Serial tendering
This embraces the period from when the building contract is signed to the point at which the building is handed over to the client.
Building Contract
Of the following available options we advise on the best option suitable for the project.
- Standard form with quantities from AA
- Standard form without quantities from AA
- Document drafted to sui
The contract document selected is prepared for signing with various clauses amplified or deleted as necessary.
Cash Flow
We then prepare a schedule to advice the client on the amount of money he/she will require to pay at the various stages of construction. Thereafter payments may be made monthly depending on how much work has been executed on site. Stages of payments can also be agreed upon with the client. The client may also enter into an agreement with a financial institution to release monies at regular intervals.
A detailed valuation statement is always prepared and forwarded to the client.
