Cost Estimation: Based on the quantity takeoff, you'll estimate the costs associated with materials, labor, equipment, subcontractors, and any other project expenses. You'll consider factors such as market rates, project location, project duration, and any special considerations.
Price Analysis: You'll compare and evaluate prices from suppliers and subcontractors, ensuring that the estimates are competitive and align with the project requirements. This involves obtaining quotes, negotiating prices, and maintaining a database of reliable vendors.
