COST ENGINEERING

Cost Estimating Services. The First Principles Advantage.

For over 25 years, MIEngineers has provided cost estimating services to thousands of infrastructure projects and developed a best practice approach based on first principles estimating to ensure infrastructure managers have clear control over their projects. Our Cost Estimating services are renowned for accuracy, consistency, professionalism and industry-leading knowledge across a wide spectrum of engineering practices to bring value and a deep level of understanding to every project.

As consulting cost engineers, MIEngineers delivers the same expertise and knowledge as a bidding contractor but with the advantage of complete independence. An independence which provides clients with robust benchmarking and evaluation of contractors’ cost submissions to ensure they deliver value for money.

  • First principles estimating. Our in-depth knowledge of how the project is built contributes significantly to the process of obtaining accurate estimates.
  • Provide estimates through the lifecycle of a project, as the design goes from 50% to 80% to 100% – Strategic, Concept and Detailed stages.
  • Estimating of variations.
  • Expert estimator service, negotiating prices on behalf of the client.
  • Pricing to the design not just a rate, utilising our trademark understanding of the differences between different projects and options.

Looking beyond the numbers, our team considers the constructability issues to tailor the estimate to the nuances of the project.
