Pricing preliminaries & site overheads
Site establishment, supervision, and commissioning — the costs that aren't in the device count but decide the bid.
Site establishment, supervision, and testing aren't line items on the drawings — here's how they're priced and recovered across the whole BoQ.
Price the site establishment
Site offices, stores, welfare, and access equipment — the cost of simply being on site, priced from duration, not guessed as a lump.
Add supervision & management
The project manager, ELV supervisor, and QA/QC time the package needs — man-months costed at their rates, held apart from device pricing.
Carry testing & commissioning
T&C is real labour and instrument time — a defined allowance for point-to-point testing, EN 54 verification, and client witnessing, never absorbed silently.
Recover it across the BoQ
Total site overhead is spread as a percentage on the measured works — so every priced line carries its fair share and the tender bottom line stays whole.
It's in the works.
