Bills of
Quantities

What We Deliver

A bill of quantities is more than a list of items and measurements. It's the commercial backbone of your construction contract, the document that defines what's included, enables like-for-like tender comparison, and provides the mechanism for valuing variations during construction.

Zaki QS prepares BOQs to AIQS standards, structured to suit your procurement strategy and contract form. Whether you need a full trade-by-trade breakdown or an elemental BOQ for a design-and-construct tender, we deliver documents that are immediately usable by tenderers, contractors, and project managers.

Our Approach

• Quantity take-offs: accurate measurement from drawings and specifications across all trades including structural, architectural, mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and fire services
• Trade-structured BOQs: organised by trade for traditional lump-sum contracts, enabling direct comparison between tenderers
• Elemental BOQs: structured by building element for cost planning alignment and design-and-construct procurement
• Pricing schedules: unit-rate and lump-sum pricing formats tailored to your contract structure
• Provisional sums & prime cost items: clearly identified and documented to reduce risk of contractual disputes
• BOQ reconciliation: post-tender reconciliation to verify tenderer pricing and identify errors or omissions before contract execution

Who This Is For

Builders preparing tenders. Developers managing competitive procurement. Contract administrators needing a reliable basis for progress claims. Quantity surveyors seeking independent measurement verification. If your project needs a BOQ, we prepare it to the standard that protects everyone involved.

Our Experience

Our team has been preparing BOQs across the full spectrum of construction, from building and services BOQs for educational and hospitality projects, through to complex industrial pricing schedules on billion-dollar mining programmes and comprehensive trade packages on $200M+ processing facilities.

We have managed pricing schedules across multiple contract components including preliminaries, direct costs, plant & equipment, labour rates, subcontractors, and material take-offs for major installation packages.
