BOQ Preparation

Tender-ready Bills of Quantities with clear item descriptions, units and quantities.

Overview

BOQ Preparation services

A good Bill of Quantities lets every bidder price the same scope, so you compare like with like. We prepare structured, tender-ready BOQs with clear item descriptions, specifications, units and quantities.

Our BOQs are written so that contractors cannot misread the scope. Each item states the material, specification, workmanship and the unit of measurement, aligned with CPWD/DSR style descriptions or your organisation's own format.

We can prepare a priced BOQ (with estimated rates) for your internal budget and an unpriced version for tendering, along with a comparative statement template to evaluate bids side by side.

What's included

  • Trade-wise BOQ structure (civil, finishing, MEP, external works)
  • Clear item descriptions with specifications and makes
  • Quantities derived from detailed take-off
  • Priced BOQ for internal budgeting
  • Unpriced BOQ for issuing to bidders
  • Provisional sums and prime cost items where design is pending
