COST MANAGEMENT
The ABMV Approach
A budget that reflects reality. At ABMV, we provide cost management as end-to-end cost control from the first feasibility studies through construction completion. We deliver cost estimates, Bills of Quantities (BoQ), cost planning, and ongoing budget monitoring. Our goal is to give investors full visibility, control over project costs and the confidence that every step aligns with the approved budget, schedule, and current market prices.
What We Do
- Project cost estimating & construction cost planning – Cost planning from the earliest design stages, including contingencies and up-to-date benchmarks.
- Bills of Quantities (BoQ) – Structured BoQs with consistent naming, measurement units, and clean data exports to Excel for efficient cost analysis.
- Value engineering & cost optimisation – Savings proposals without unnecessary compromise on quality or performance. Each change is assessed for cost, schedule impact, and risk.
- Contractor bid comparison – Clear, objective bid analysis, including TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) evaluation where relevant.
- Cost control & invoice verification – Ongoing verification of invoicing against the BoQ, cash-flow tracking, and assessment of cost impact from changes.
- Change control – Logging, pricing, and approval of change requests, with an auditable change log maintained within the CDE environment.
Key Benefits
- Accurate cost forecasting from concept to completion – Decisions based on real data, not rough assumptions.
- Consistent BoQ structure – Comparable bids and transparent contractor selection.
- Transparent cost control – Clear visibility of budget utilisation and the impact of changes.
- Monthly cost reports – Cash-flow overview, forecasts, and commentary on variances.
