Cost Planning

Construction Cost Planning 

If you are just about to embark on a commercial or domestic building project and you are not entirely sure about the costs that may occur, then it is imperative that you get support for the building cost planning.

The main and sole purpose of building cost planning within the UK is to itemise each element of a domestic or commercial construction project to evaluate and calculate the likely overall cost of the build.

Cost planning explicitly refers to the construction costs - it does not include other ancillary fees. Nor does it include any of the expenses you might incur if you must wait for approval or planning permission. Cost planning is solely concerned with letting you figure out how much you can expect to pay for the building part of a commercial or domestic building project.

Why You Need Construction Cost Planning?

There are all kinds of reasons why you need cost planning for domestic and commercial building projects within the United Kingdom.

These include:

  • To Help You Budget Your Construction Project. Budgeting for a building project can be tricky as there are numerous elements to consider. With cost planning, however, you can get a breakdown, item by item, showing you how much you’re likely to spend. With a construction build budget in hand, you can make better financing decisions, approach creditors with more confidence, and plan your cash flow from start to finish.
  • To Compare Contractor Quotes on Your Construction Project. If you do not have a sense of how much a project should cost before you go into a negotiation with a contractor, you don’t know if you’re getting a good deal.
  • To Control Costs. Commercial and Residential Developers and builders are notorious for overspending on projects. A detailed cost plan, however, shows you how much you should be spending and enables you to identify elements of the building project which are pushing you over budgetWith a cost plan in hand, you can quickly scan for budgeting issues and find out why the cost of your building is coming in higher than you originally planned.
  • To Manage Future Cashflow. A building project may have the potential to be profitable, but without proper cash flow, the whole enterprise can come to a screeching halt. Developers need to plan their cash flow so that they can continue to pay suppliers and workers. Without cash in the bank, builders won’t be able to complete projects and may miss out on the opportunity to deliver a profitable project. Cost planning shows you the points during the construction process where you’re likely to face financial bottlenecks, allowing you to plan for them in advance.

How Construction Cost Planning Works

The way cost planning works is simple. A building consultant will look at plans for your project and then take into account numerous factors which could affect the future cost. The consultant performs a thorough review and then feeds data into a cost model. At the end of the process, you’ll know how much money you’ll have, your main risks to costs, and where you might be able to make savings.
