Estimators need to understand the consequences of entering into a contract, often defined by complex conditions and documents, as well as to appreciate the technical requirements of the project. Estimating and Tendering for Construction Work explains the job of the estimator through every key stage, from early cost studies to the creation of budgets for successful tenders. Estimating and tendering is a key element of construction related courses and this clearly-written text, illustrated with examples, notes and technical documentation, is ideal for students needing to understand these essential processes, it will also be a handy reference for professionals beginning in industry. Since the last edition was published in 2004 there have been more developments in the field such as new tendering and procurement methods; a move from basic estimating to cost-planning as well as greater emphasis on partnering and collaborative working. The new edition will reflect these developments as well as be updated to include changes to pricing, rates, terminology and technology. |
