Drive Down and Control Construction Costs

At CBIZ Tofias, we understand that you don't want to overpay on any construction project, regardless of its size or complexity. How can you be sure that you are being charged the correct amount? Our detailed construction cost reviews, contract price determinations and other key services are designed to ensure that you only pay for the services and materials for which you have actually contracted.

By working with CBIZ Tofias' construction cost experts early in the development cycle of any building project, we can identify potential issues and implement procedures to ensure compliance with the contract agreement, which can save you money and help mitigate disputes regarding cost.

Here are a few examples of savings we have achieved for our clients:

• We saved a university approximately $500,000 on a $16 million project after our contract review identified budgetary issues and successfully negotiated a reduction in contractors' fees.
• Our detailed analysis of the proposed budget prior to the construction of a $30 million project revealed that $750,000 of the contractor's general conditions were either unnecessary or incorrectly calculated. We saved our client money before construction even began.
• We saved a client $400,000 on an $80 million project by reviewing labor costs and change orders, and identifying costs that were not in compliance with the contract agreement.
