Bill of Quantities

A bill of quantities every subcontractor prices from the same document

My Project Estimating  ·  Bill of Quantities

Get five subcontractors pricing off five different descriptions of the same package and the quotes that come back won't be comparable. A single bill of quantities fixes that before the enquiries even go out.

One scope, measured once

Rather than each subcontractor interpreting drawings independently, a bill of quantities measured to NRM2 sets out exactly what's being priced, so every quote that comes back is against the same scope.

Comparing quotes becomes possible

When subcontractors price against the same bill, comparing their quotes line by line becomes straightforward. Without it, you're comparing different assumptions about scope dressed up as a single number.

It protects you when work changes hands

If a subcontractor drops out mid-tender or a package needs re-pricing, having a bill of quantities already measured means the replacement prices against the same document, rather than starting the whole scope conversation again.

Send your drawings and we'll build a bill of quantities every subcontractor can price from. See a sample estimate to see how it's structured.
