design and construction phase cost
estimating
1 basic concept: for all phases
Any design-submission deliverables may include, but are not limited to:
cost estimates and reports
market survey
cost growth reports
space-type cost analysis
life-cycle cost analysis
value engineering studies
independent estimate reviews
budget analysis
construction award bid analysis
database information preparation
construction modifications & claims analysis
value engineering change proposals analysis (VECPS)
risk analysis reports
The purpose is to establish a cost management system that tracks budgets established based
on the prospectus in a Uniformat Level II, comparing cost growth and cost modifications
for all Uniformat Level II elements through design, procurement, construction and project
completion.
As a general rule, early in the process Uniformat is the primary estimate format, although CSI
MasterFormat may be selected on a project-by-project basis. GSA usually requires work items
on major renovation projects or when the project is to be separated into major components or
subbuildings. The space-type summary is usually required at various project phases. A Cost
