Bill of Quantities (BoQ) Service
Professional Bill of Quantities Preparation in the UK
At My Project Estimating, our Bill of Quantities (BoQ) Service delivers clear, itemised documentation for fair pricing and cost control.
We prepare BoQs to NRM2 standards, helping architects, builders, developers, and homeowners achieve transparency and consistency.
What Is a Bill of Quantities?
The foundation for accurate tendering and cost control
A Bill of Quantities (BoQ) is a detailed document listing all measured items of work required for a construction project.
It provides a shared reference for clients, architects, and contractors – ensuring that everyone prices the same scope with the same understanding.
Our BoQ preparation service delivers professionally structured schedules that make tendering faster, fairer, and more transparent.
We follow industry-recognised standards and use verified UK cost data to align your pricing with real market conditions.
A BoQ helps you:
- Create fair competition during tendering.
- Improve clarity in contractor pricing and comparisons.
- Reduce variations and cost disputes during construction.
- Maintain transparent cost control from tender to completion.
For a complete approach to cost management, you can also explore our Construction Estimating Service, Cost Planning Service, and Quantity Takeoff Service – all designed to integrate seamlessly with your BoQ for full project accuracy and financial control.
