Why You Need a Quantity Surveyor as a Developer

Many are not very farmiliar with the roles of a quantity surveyor and the benefits that would be theirs if they involve one in their projects.

1. Preliminary cost estimate: A quantity surveyor can give you an approximate cost of your proposed project from just the draft of the drawing when the full drawing is not available or ready. This would help to forestall abandonment of project, ensure adequate review of one's taste, promote adequate cash flow planning, determination of construction and contractual procedure et cetera

Hi all,

Come in here for all your questions about construction cost and estimating of labor and materials

WHO ARE QUANTITY SURVEYORS?
This little write up is specifically for the benefits of those that doesn't know what Quantity surveyors do.

The Royal Institute of Chartered surveyors (RICS) defines the role of Quantity surveyor as "ensuring that the resources of the Construction industry are utilised to the best advantage of the society by providing financial management for projects and cost consultancy services to the client and designer during whole construction process.

The noble profession "Quantity surveying" is an almagam of Economics, Law, Accountancy, Management, Construction Technology and many more but few to mention.
Many have mixed Quantity surveyors duties with Land Surveyors. It's a different ball game, just that we belong to the same industry. This is what we all need to know so we can direct the right questions to the right professionals.

Whenever it is Construction Cost related issues, always direct your questions to Quantity Surveyors. Also whenever it is Land related issues, do not hesitate to meet Land Surveyors.

I think this should help us a little bit.
