Quantity surveying documents for projects in Republic of the Congo
Measured bills of quantities, material schedules and cost estimates for Republic of the Congo projects, prepared remotely from your drawings and priced with a stated currency and date basis.
En français. Nous préparons des devis quantitatifs et estimatifs et des états de matériaux pour des projets au Congo, à partir des plans fournis. Prestations à distance uniquement.
Construction in the Republic of the Congo is concentrated in Brazzaville and Pointe-Noire, with material costs strongly influenced by import logistics and port access. That makes the transport and delivery component of an estimate unusually significant, and unusually easy to underestimate.
We prepare measured documents with logistics stated as its own cost line, and review bills prepared locally for quantity accuracy.
