Effective cost estimating is fundamental to the management of any project. JMT's cost management experience includes detailed cost estimating, expenditure monitoring, pricing change orders, evaluating the costs of project acceleration and delays, cost-to-complete estimating, scope changes, and other impact factors. On a typical construction project, we prepare the cost estimate for alternative design solutions, conceptual design phases, competitive bids, and crew analysis. We use cost control tools to assure the client that all alternatives have been explored before a project overrun is accepted. In addition, we perform cost engineering and economic analysis for construction and operation projects. Our staff is experienced with most major cost estimating and scheduling software packages including M-CACES, CES, Project Estimator, Excel, Lotus, Primavera, SureTrak, IEST, and Timberline. | |
