BOQ Preparation & Quantity Takeoff Services
We provide detailed Bills of Quantities that help contractors submit clearer pricing based on the available drawings, and may help reduce the risk of discrepancies and change orders related to missing or ambiguous items.
What We Deliver
Quantity Takeoff: Extracting measurements from the available drawings (architectural, structural, MEP). Quantities are derived from the project documents provided and are not site-measured execution quantities.
Bill of Quantities (BOQ): Organising the takeoff data into a structured document that helps contractors price more clearly.
BOQ Auditing: Reviewing existing contractor BOQs against drawings within the defined review scope.
Cost Estimation: Providing a preliminary cost estimate subject to the date and source of pricing data and the scope of the service.
