Preliminary Estimating

Preliminary Estimating is a condensed report that shows costs broken down into material and labour sub-headings. These costs are still quantified with the usual accuracy, but do not show breakdowns or specific details for each of the headings. Often used for feasibilities at concept stage.

Required information: Concept/Town planning/Working drawings

Hybrid Estimating

Hybrid Estimating is a cross between the preliminary estimating and bill of quantities estimating. As such this shows scope of works headings, but with additional breakdowns showing of how the costs were formulated. Not as detailed as the bill of quantity estimating, but an excellent alternative. Often used for feasibilities and tendering.

Required information: Concept/Town planning/Working drawings

Bill of Quantities Estimating

Bill of Quantities Estimating is a report that shows all of the above along with itemised details and cutting lists. Within the bill of quantities are items that can be used to order materials from. This, being the most detailed report is obviously the most accurate. Often used for tendering and ordering.
