  • Bore Installation and Headworks
  • Pump Stations
  • Collector Tanks
  • Above and Below Ground Installed DN800 Pipeline
  • Road, Rail, River and Fauna Crossings

Each estimate was developed in our Estimating Software Package ‘Eclipse CS’. Items and quantities were produced using the project Scope of Work, MTO’s, specifications and drawings provided by the client and pricing was completed by using a combination of;

  • Historical Pricing Data

  • First Principles Build Ups Using Industry Norms (Where Applicable)

HOW IT TURNED OUT

The completed estimates enabled Pentium Water to assist their client in choosing the most cost effective options to take to the next stage of the study.
