Quantity Surveying Services for Contractors

Maximise Variation Claims. Strengthen Progress Payments. Protect Your Bottom Line.

At HSP Advisory, we provide specialist Quantity Surveying services for

contractors across Australia, helping you recover variations, strengthen

progress claims, and protect project margins.

We understand the commercial pressures contractors face—tight margins, design

changes, and rejected claims. Our role is simple:

ensure you are paid what you are entitled to under the contract.

Contractor-Focused QS Services

Materials Take-Off & Bills of Quantities (BOQ)

Accurate quantification is critical to winning work and protecting margin.

We prepare detailed Materials Take-Offs and Bills of Quantities (BOQs) in

accordance with the Australian and New Zealand Standard Method of

Measurement of Building Works (ANZSMM).

 Trade-specific take-offs for tender submissions

 BOQs aligned with subcontractor procurement packages

 Identification of scope gaps, omissions, and drawing inconsistencies

 Support for competitive—but commercially sound—pricing

Estimation & Cost Planning for Contractors

We support contractors with construction estimating and cost planning to reduce

pricing risk and improve tender outcomes.

 Independent estimate reviews before submission

 Cost planning for design & construct (D&C) projects

 Market-aligned pricing and benchmarking

 Identification of high-risk cost exposures

Our approach ensures you avoid underpricing, missed scope, and margin erosion.

Progress Claims And Payment Schedule Support

Cash flow is critical. We help contractors prepare and defend progress claims that stand up to scrutiny.

Independent valuation of completed works

Assistance responding to payment schedules

Alignment with Security of Payment (NSW) requirements

We position your claims to be clear, compliant, and difficult to reject or

Variations Assessment & Cost Recovery

Recovering variations is where contractors often lose margin. We help you identify, quantify, and substantiate variation claims to maximise entitlement.

Identification of variations, scope changes, and omissions

Preparation and substantiation of variation claims

Assessment of cost and time impacts

Assessment of tender drawings vs. Issue for Construction (IFC) drawings to identify design development changes and quantify cost impacts

Our goal is to ensure variations are properly documented, contractually justified, and commercially recoverable.
