Construction & Cost
Know the number before you commit, and keep knowing it every month after.
Quantity surveying is the management of construction cost from first estimate to final account. Nautic prepares cost plans, bills of quantities and tender documents, runs the procurement process, values work in progress, assesses variations and agrees the final account. The objective is simple: the building you approved, for the money you approved.
Most overspends are not one large event. They are a hundred small ones nobody priced, so we keep a measured cost model current and make change visible while there is still time to act.
What we deliver
Early-stage budgets from area schedules and benchmark rates, before drawings exist.
A cost plan that develops with the design.
Fully measured documents that give every tenderer the same basis and make bids genuinely comparable..
Contractor selection, tender queries, arithmetic and qualification checks, and a clear recommendation report.
Monthly valuations of work in progress, payment certificates and forecast cash flow.
Change control, measured variations, loss and expense review, and negotiated final account.

FAQ
A quantity surveyor manages the cost of a construction project: estimating and cost planning before work starts, running the tender process, valuing work each month, pricing variations, and agreeing the final account at the end.
As early as possible, ideally at concept design. The greatest influence over final cost exists before drawings are fixed, and falls away quickly once construction begins.
Both, though never on the same project. We act for developers, private clients, government bodies and contractors, and confirm the basis of appointment in writing at the outset.
A measured schedule of every item of work in a project. It lets contractors price the same scope on the same basis, makes tenders comparable, and provides the measurement basis for valuing change later.
