Estimating is considered one of the most important processes in the successful completion of bids for tendering of projects. A cost estimate is the approximation of the cost of a project. The technical requirements, general requirements, escalation requirements and complete understanding of the scope of work are crucial in construction estimation. The tender process often adds the pressures faced by professionals in the industry, delays poor documents, inaccurate estimations on value of work, ill-equipped staff managing tenders, and risks being passed onto Contractors are just a few of the challenges.
This 2-day workshop seeks to take the attendees through the process of tendering and construction estimation to ensure handover to the site is smooth should the tender be successful. Learning how to develop strategies for preparing well-researched bids, and how to mitigate risks and effectively engage all participating stakeholders will be covered during the workshop.
