report on the contemplated project
Study & report phase includes cost for field surveys,
planning analysis, geotechnical exploration analysis
in addition to direct engineering cost.
Cost of coordination, evaluation implementation
and compliance increased correspondingly
study and report phase is important because its
implementation determines the scope and
development of the entire project.
In final design and construction phase services like
surveying and geotechnical engineering is needed.

is not intended to fund design growth, owner changes, or
anything else unrelated to delivering the scope as defined
in the estimate documentation. Generally more contingency
