BOQ Preparation

Preparing a bill of quantities (BOQ) is another important service GCES prides itself on. This document provides detailed and measured item quantities, which are necessary for any construction project. Identifying and itemising the materials, equipment, parts and labour components of a project is a vital part of the tendering process.
