“Santos” a former client owns a building company called ESTOM8-2308 & Associates Pty Limited and given how you have impressed him in the past, he would like you to run a project for him.

AQS explains that Santos Clawes has a school project that stalled for a couple of years, however the project is now back on track and he needs a tender prepared for ESTOM8-2308 & Associates Pty Limited. Santos has a BOQ to price along with a number of current quotes and he wants you to finish the estimate, make sure it is correct and submit the tender for the project.

It will be necessary to accurately price the bills of quantities provided for Groundworks, Concrete, Formwork, Reinforcement and Masonry. In addition, there will need to be a component included for Preliminaries which will include allowances for overheads and profit which Santos says should reflect the market opportunities and threats.

Certain prices or rates identified in the bills of quantities as “++++++Priced from base principles+++++” are to be prepared exactly the way a builder with his own direct labour and plant (i.e. L/M/P & S/C) would prepare them in a tender situation. The remaining items in the BOQ can be taken from the provided “Trade Pricing List” and are to have overheads and margin included.

Santos feels the tender scenario will ensure value for money. You will be heading up the ESTOM8-2308 & Associates Pty Limited submission that will be one of the entities for consideration when awarding a contract.

Santos’ is a little old school, and he has asked that at a minimum the 10 built up rates for the tender BOQ be completed by hand. This will allow him to review these rates in a way that he is familiar.

A number of supporting emails and other materials have been supplied and should be used in the preparation of your tender. Any queries should be raised using the preferred document transfer system “Canvas” using the Assessment 2 Request For Information “RFI” discussion thread.
