Your Public Bid Starts With Numbers You Can Defend
Public works contractors need an end-to-end estimate that is in-depth. When it comes to bidding for the government and federal construction projects, there are a number of factors involved. Accurate mechanical, electrical, and plumbing quantification, cost estimation, and material takeoff. We provide end-to-end solutions to our public works contractors so they do not face any type of financial situation during construction.
Public Works Quantity Takeoffs
QTO is the most significant part of the construction estimate that is not only about measuring the material quantities but also helping in procurement. We use different types of tools, which enable us to calculate the overall budget of the public works construction project. Our engineers factor in all the components, including structural steel, masonry, framing, roofing, and drywall finishing, among others.
Government Construction Cost Estimating
We provide cost estimates for all types of construction projects. Our engineers use the material quantities and measurements to calculate the overall cost. Instead of focusing on the entire project, we develop the construction cost in multiple steps. Our estimates include material costs, labor costs, subcontractor costs, as well as overhead or profit.
Prevailing Wage Estimating
When it comes to tendering for public projects, you should consider that the prevailing wage is often required. When we develop an estimate, our engineers account for the prevailing wage. We ensure that trade-specific labor budget labor classifications, wage considerations, and fringe benefits are accounted for in the estimate. In this way, you will be able to make informed decisions.
Public Bid Preparation
We also provide public bid preparation and estimating services. We help contractors translate the bid documents into an organized pricing structure before the proposal deadline. Our engineers deliver you an estimate that you can use for the bidding submission. Each estimate has a bid form review, scope review, and quantity verification or addenda review.
MEP Estimating for Public Projects
Large-scale public work projects contain a number of complexities. You need to consider mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems separately when you are estimating. Our engineers provide dedicated estimates for all types of systems, including mechanical, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, insulation, and fire protection, as well as low-voltage systems.
