Estimating & Tendering



At RCS we pride ourselves on providing top-notch tendering and estimating services to ensure the success and efficiency of your construction projects. Our dedicated team of experts understands the critical role that accurate and competitive tendering plays in securing projects, and we tailor our services to meet the unique needs of each client.

We consider the current labour, material and plant rates in your area and subjective commercial judgement when producing your estimate.

Bills of Quantities


RCS will prepare Bills of Quantities as part of the tender documentation that is issued to prospective suppliers to obtain a price.

In the realm of construction management, Bills of Quantities (BoQ) stand as a foundational document that plays a pivotal role in project cost estimation, tendering, and contract administration. A well-crafted BoQ serves as a comprehensive roadmap, breaking down the project into measurable and quantifiable components, thereby providing a detailed inventory of the required materials, labour, and associated costs.

Procurement


RCS will work alongside you in tender negotiations with suppliers and contractors, ensuring you are achieving value-for-money at all stages of your project. 

Procurement in the construction industry is a multifaceted process that extends far beyond the simple acquisition of goods and services. It is a strategic undertaking that involves the identification, sourcing, negotiation, and management of resources to ensure the timely and cost-effective realization of a construction project. A well-executed procurement strategy can significantly impact project outcomes, influencing factors such as cost control, quality assurance, and overall project efficiency.
