Contractors Pricing for Preliminaries - Overview


1.

There is no hard and fast rules to price preliminaries.

2.

The purpose of this seminar is to cover the basic principles of


building up cost and eventually pricing for preliminaries.

3.

The speaker will share his experience in pricing preliminaries for


submitting tenders of building projects.

4.

A Sample Case will be discussed for compiling the preliminaries


cost (not exhaustive) of a sample building project.

Method of Pricing Preliminaries


1.

To allow % mark-up (based on similar previous projects) on the


estimated cost of the project.

2.

Build up the cost of preliminaries items (with significant cost


implication not covered in BQ/SOR) in detail.
