Bill of Quantity - BOQ is a detailed statement prepared by the cost consultant (often a Quantity Surveyor) that provides project-specific measured quantities of the items of work and materials with the prices as per the drawings and specifications of the Project.
The quantities may be measured in number, length, area, volume, weight or time. Preparing a bill of quantities requires that the design is complete and a specification has been prepared. The BOQ will have the complete list of materials starting from Aggregates, Sand, Cement, Steel to Paints, Flooring, Electrical, Doors and Windows, Fabrication etc. It is basically extracting the actual quantities from the drawings and specifications provided by the Architect / Structural Consultant and calculating the cost of each item considering the current Market Rates / Standard Rates. Labour rates can also be calculated for each item of work based on which the Tenders are prepared and Quotations are requested by the contractors.
