Cost Consultancy
Project budget and cost monitoring through-out the project lifecycle.
Service Overview
Our Cost Consultancy and Quantity Surveying practice safeguards capital investments from inception through final settlement. We prepare detailed Bills of Quantities (BoQs), evaluate commercial contractor tenders, perform joint on-site physical measurements, and track Earned Value metrics to keep client investments transparent throughout the build lifecycle. Headquartered in Bengaluru, PPMC operates across India.

Our Methodology
How we coordinate, audit, and execute Cost Consultancy across each milestone of the project lifecycle.
Convert engineering drawings into rigorous, itemized Bills of Quantities based on standard measurement codes (IS 1200), establishing transparent cost baselines.
- Itemized BoQ with detailed item specifications
- Pre-tender estimate & rate analysis from first principles
- Contract commercial conditions & payment schedule framework
- Trade budget allocation & contingency provisions
Quality Gate: Precise BoQs eliminate contractual ambiguities and prevent post-award contractor claims.
Review contractor bids, perform detailed item-rate comparisons, identify skewed rates or unfeasible pricing, and support commercial negotiations.
- Comparative commercial evaluation statement
- Rate analysis on specialized & long-lead items
- Contractor qualification & financial strength report
- Recommendation for contractor award & contract draft
Quality Gate: In-depth tender scrutiny exposes hidden contractor caveats and protects owner budgets.
Resident quantity surveyors perform joint physical measurements on-site, audit contractor invoices against contract terms, and verify stage progress.
- Joint physical measurement sheets (MB book records)
- Audit of contractor running account (RA) bills
- Certified Interim Payment Certificates (IPC)
- Monthly cashflow forecast & committed cost tracking
Quality Gate: Every certified invoice is backed by physical measurements verified against approved inspection checklists.
Scrutinize contractor variation claims, execute transparent first-principles rate analysis, settle final measurements, and close out project accounts.
- Variation register with documented cost justifications
- First-principles rate analysis based on CPWD/market norms
- Final bill measurement reconciliation
- Final account settlement certificate & no-claims release
Quality Gate: Enforcing clear contractual variation mechanisms prevents cost overruns from unauthorized scope expansion.
