Already have a scope of works from the architect or main contractor? Send that over too, we'll price against what's already there rather than starting again from scratch.
So every trade prices the same scope
A bill of quantities is a full, itemised list of every measured item of work in the job, taken off the drawings. It gives every trade the same reference, so they all price the same scope the same way. We prepare your BoQ to NRM2 on real UK rates, so tendering is faster and fairer, and the numbers that come back are ones you can actually compare.
Like-for-like prices
With every trade bidding the same scope.
Compare tenders quickly
Because they're all measured the same way.
Cut variations on site
Because the scope is clear up front.
You can carry the same numbers across from a construction estimate, cost planning and a quantity takeoff, so your BoQ stays consistent with the rest of your pricing.
A clean, itemised BoQ ready for tender
Every BoQ is prepared to NRM2 on real UK rates, measured off your drawings by a team who know how a real job gets built, so nothing gets left out and every trade prices the same scope.
See what every trade would price from
