Whether you are an owner, program manager, contractor, architect or construction manager, we are equipped to supplement your team’s expertise and insight to ensure your project’s success.
- The start of a successful project starts with a good idea and a well-founded estimate of the costs, and among the five common project discriminators – time, cost, quality, performance, and scope – most clients concentrate their efforts on determining and controlling project costs. Accurate estimates are needed for budgeting, to verify or modify design decisions at the various stages of the project development and to analyze the accuracy and fairness of contractor bids. Triangle Projects recognizes the importance of having accurate cost estimates before a shovel even goes in the ground, so delivers solid cost estimating services based on best practices that have proven themselves.
- Triangle Projects prepares estimates at the various stages of project development, utilizing a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) to code all our estimate items. The WBS allows us to quickly sort and summarize the cost information according to client need. Our estimates will utilize the latest prevailing wage data with our own material and labor productivity costs database. Our cost estimating, and management expertise encompasses a wide variety of services.
- Triangle Projects maintains databases of historical and current construction and engineering cost figures including labor, material, and equipment costs. We are equipped to prepare cost estimates and/or verify proposed construction costs at various stages throughout the construction process for all projects. By identifying and analyzing the project’s scope, time, cost, quality, and performance, Triangle Projects develops an accurate assessment of how the construction process is unfolding over the course of its duration.
