Tender and Pricing Documents

The financial corner stone of every project is the pricing document.

This can take many forms

All have a role to play and are suited to different applications. GNA are skilled at producing suitable and accurate pricing documents for client tenders and contractor pricing alike.

 

Bills of Quantities

A detailed pricing document for a complete building project. The document comprises an extensive list of items that consist of both specification and quantity against which a contractor inserts his rates to compile a tender for the project. The document is produced in strict accordance with industry agreed rules to provide a consistent and recognisable approach. The reason for such detail and consistency is to generate contactor prices that are directly comparable and thus ensuring best value for money. The level of detail included requires that B of Q’s take time, together with skill and expertise to compile. The benefits to clients are however on-site cost control and value for money.

 

Schedules of Work

Similar to B of Q’s but less detailed and better suited to smaller simpler projects. Items are still provided in a specification and quantity format. They still provide benefits in terms of value and cost control but are quicker and therefore cheaper to produce.

 

Builders Quantities

Similar to schedules of works and are commonly used by contracting organisation to prepare tender costs on design and build projects.

 

Specifications

These are detailed descriptions of works against which the contractor is required to insert his prices. The main difference is that the contractor is required to produce his own quantities.

 

Employers Requirements

These documents are required by design and build contracts. They are produced by the client’s representative, the Employers Agent, spell out clearly what the client expects from the design in terms of function, performance and quality. ER documents contain no quantities so each tendering contractor must produce his own for pricing purposes
