Sanders Construction Consultants (SCC) specializes in providing subcontractors, general contractors, construction managers and developers with quantity take-offs, cost estimates, buy out and bidding assistants. SCC has also been providing developers, owners reps, building owners, government agencies and other consultants with preconstruction services, third party plans/specifications review and change order evaluations.
ESTIMATES:
We are the estimators for the construction industry. We can takeoff and estimate the cost for individual trades or the entire building. From site work to roofing and all the trades in between, we can do your takeoff and estimate your costs. It is as simple as sending us your plans and specifications, either electronically or hard copy, then we send back the quantity takeoff and/or estimate the way you want it. All our takeoffs are done from the drawings on the computer screen and color coded, then the takeoff data is exported to Excel spreadsheets or your computer programs. We can also link all our takeoff data to your specific estimate programs and/or formats. All of our estimates are set up with unit costs, mark ups, bonds and tax that you can easily edit for your individual costs and area.
BIDDING:
If you a subcontractor bidding to a GC or a GC bidding to a developer or government agency we can help supplement your team with the following:
· Attend pre-bid and walk-thru meetings.
· Review front ends, verify insurance and bonding requirements, bid forms, unit prices and alternates.
· Set up your blue printer with the bid documents and keep up to date with all addendums.
· Review the plans & specs and set up your bid packages.
· Send out invitations to bid to your subcontractors and suppliers.
· Prepare your RFIs (request for information) and manage the responses.
· Prepare your scope or leveling sheets (outline of scope for each specific trade or bid package).
· We will level bids as they come in for each trade or bid package.
· Set up spread sheets to assemble your supplier and subcontractor bids with the required alternates and unit prices.
· Help you find every supplier and subcontractor on the street bidding the project.
· Link your spread sheets to the required bid forms, unit prices and alternates.
· And most importantly, we help make sure the bid is prepared on time and submitted correctly.
· Then we can help you negotiate and buy out your projects with your subcontractors.
As a test, to build a relationship, please put together a sample of the finished product you would like to see from us. Then send over the sample with a set of drawings you would like quantity takeoff or an estimate done from. We will review, and then give you a call so we can agree on a test price. We will do the takeoff and estimating work you require and track our time. If you like the finished product we can take it from there. At SCC we want to become your extended estimating department and part of your team.
Our extensive knowledge of building construction and combined proficiency with Microsoft Excel and OnScreen TakeOff has made us one of the best resources for estimating and bidding in the construction industry today.
