- MY-CESMM2 was developed to address issues with existing standard methods and provide a standardized measurement framework. It consists of a guide, technical notes, and a standard library of bills of quantities.
- The framework divides works into three divisions with unique coding and limits each division to eight items. It includes new rules for consistently measuring items like excavation, trees, and filling.
- The improvements aim to reduce disputes by providing clear guidance on measuring different work items.

SOME BASIC DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE 3 SMMs MM2-ISM covers mainly building works and does not cover S civil engineering works ESMM(M) covers mainly civil engineering works and does not C cover building works ESMM(M) in tabulated format whereas SMM2-ISM in C descriptive format ESMM3-UK has separate items for supply and lay whereas C CESMM(M) has supply and lay under 1 item .g. concreting works e ESMM3-UK supply (1), lay (2) C ESMM(M) supply and lay (1) C Water Malaysia 2011

SOME DEFINITIONS OF BQ he Bill of Quantities (BQ) is the agreed statement of the T prices which will be paid for work done by the Contractor for the Client and it shares with the drawings, specifications and schedules the responsibility for defining what has been agreed shall be done he essential functions of the BQ is to limit the difficulty T the Client has in forecasting and defining to a Contractor what is required to do. n the other hand it limits the difficulty the Contractor has O in forecasting precisely what the work will cost.

ISSUES AND CHALLENGES IN USING SMM

JKR 203A CONDITIONS OF CONTRACT
JKR 203A (Rev. 10/83)
Clause 26(b) requires the BQ to be prepared in accordance with the SMM for Building Works prepared by Institute of Surveyors, Malaysia
JKR 203A (2007)
Clause 26.4 in the new form allows SMM for preparation of BQ to be also based on CESMM by ICE or any Method of Measurement as set out in the BQ in addition to the SMM for Building Works by ISM.
Contractor says he uses CESMM3-UK to price it but the Engineer says he is using SM-ISM? Water Malaysia 2011

SOME ISSUES IN USING SMM Although the Civil Engineering Standard Method of Measurement (CESMM) by ICE UK is often used for works of a civil engineering nature but there are many occasions particularly for, water supply, wastewater, etc, Consultants utilise their own Standard Method of Measurement. Under 1 Item - Supply, lay, including excavation, valves, thrust blocks, etc Under 4 Items - Excavation (I), Supply & Lay including joints (2), Valve (3), Thrust blocks (4) Under 7 Items - Excavation (I), Supply (2), Lay (3), Cutting of Pipes (4), Joints (5), Valve (6), Thrust blocks (7)
