Early Cost Certainty for Confident Design and Delivery

For architects and clients, cost management begins long before construction starts. Our role is to give you clarity from the earliest design stages, so you can make confident decisions and deliver your project without financial surprises.

At Ross Baillie, we collaborate closely with design teams and project managers to ensure every stage – from concept to completion – stays aligned with budget objectives, contractual requirements, and quality standards.

Tender support: preparation of bills of quantities, take-offs, and tender analysis.
• Feasibility and budget estimating: helping establish realistic budgets from initial concept.
• Design stage cost planning: monitoring design development to ensure affordability.
• Value engineering: identifying opportunities to reduce costs without compromising intent.
• Tender management: preparing tender documents, evaluating bids, and making recommendations.
• Post-contract cost control: tracking expenditure and reporting on progress through completion.
