Transparent Costing Done Right

Numbers don’t lie—unless they’re vague, bloated, or missing altogether. A professionally prepared Bill of Quantities (BoQ) removes the guesswork, giving you a clear, detailed breakdown of every work item and associated cost before the first shovel hits the ground.

At Canning CC, our Bills of Quantities are precise, practical, and tailored to your construction project. Whether you’re tendering, budgeting, or validating mid-build costs, we deliver a detailed BoQ backed by real construction economics and accurate cost estimation.

Your construction costs, clearly mapped. Your risks, reduced. Your project, under control.

What Is a Bill of Quantities?

A Bill of Quantities is a structured, contract-ready document that itemises materials, labour, and all components required for a construction project. It’s built on measured quantities—organised by trade packages with costs applied per square meter, cubic meter, or specific item descriptions.

It’s used to:

• Provide accurate pricing and cost estimation

• Standardise quotes from bidding contractors

• Track actuals vs budgets through the construction process

• Manage provisional sums, variations, and cost overruns

• Enable evidence-based resolution in contract or legal disputes

It’s not just a costing tool—it’s the foundation of cost control, accountability, and transparency.

How We Prepare Your BoQ

We don’t just fill templates—we build detailed documents tailored to your project specifications.

Scope Clarification
We work with your team to confirm inclusions, exclusions, and every relevant construction work detail.

Measurement & Takeoff
Using ASMM, NRM, and other new rules standards, we calculate measured works with precision.

Trade Packaging
Each work item is organised the way real contractors quote—streamlining project cost comparisons.

Rate Application & Benchmarking
We factor in labour costs, material pricing, and current market data to create a firm bill that reflects reality.

Review & Finalisation
We cross-check every quantity, cost, and unit rate—because accuracy is everything.

Who Needs a Bill of Quantities?

A BoQ is essential for anyone serious about managing construction cost estimates and ensuring scope clarity:

• Developers comparing quotes apples-to-apples

• Contract administrators validating claims and changes

• Builders who want scope certainty and reliable estimated costs

• Lawyers and insurers verifying entitlement and liability

• Project managers tracking total costs against budgets

It’s your best defence against ambiguity, scope creep, and budget blowouts.
