General contractor: $4.1M project win
Precise estimating let the client bid competitively without sacrificing margin.
$4.1MProject value secured
Public tender for the renovation of a $4.1M heritage building. The client bid without a dedicated estimator and had lost the previous three projects of similar scale.
We produced a fully detailed estimate by division, negotiated with specialty subs, and validated contingencies. The client bid 1.8% below the second-lowest bidder — enough to win, enough margin to deliver.
