Scope of Review
What Gets Checked
Quantity Review
Billed quantities checked against drawings, BOQ and site measurements where available.
Measurement Review
Measurement records examined for method, units, deductions and arithmetic.
BOQ Comparison
Billed items compared line by line against the agreed BOQ and scope.
Rate Review
Applied rates checked against agreed or quoted rates for each item.
Extra Item Review
Extra and substituted items examined for basis, necessity and rate reasonableness.
Missing / Incomplete Work
Work billed but not visibly complete on site, flagged with observations.
Supporting Documents
Vouchers, measurement books and supporting records reviewed for consistency.
The Difference
Contractor Submission vs Independent Review
Before
Contractor Submission
- Lump-sum quantities, no derivation
- Extras added without basis
- Rates vary between bills
- No measurement record attached
After
Independent Review
- Quantities re-measured item by item
- Extra items itemised with basis
- Rates checked against agreed BOQ
- Observations documented in writing
Documented observations — shared before you pay
Review findings are documented technical observations based on the records and site conditions made available. They support your payment decisions — they are not a guarantee of savings.
How It Works
Simple, Documented, Independent
- Share the contractor bill, BOQ, agreement and any measurement records
- Scope and fee for the review are agreed up front
- Quantities, rates and extras are examined item by item
- You receive written observations — before you decide on payment
