Connecting the cost review to preconstruction decisions
Use a decision log that identifies scope gaps, the responsible party and the dates needed for a pricing or schedule decision. Separate the estimating and schedule review deliverables from field supervision, permitting and site management responsibilities.
What the estimate can show
- Scope and quantity detail arranged by the trade, system, phase or bid item.
- Document references so scope questions can be traced to the applicable plans or specifications.
- Assumptions and exclusions kept visible, with separate pricing or allowances when requested.
