Use cost modelling to find the best option
A clear picture based on accurate cost data is key to making better, more informed decisions to assess a project’s feasibility and value. Our dynamic cost benchmarking data and advanced cost modelling can help you to review alternative design options, explore ‘what if’ scenarios, and identify the most cost-effective approach.
Explore options and challenge assumptions
To optimise costs and value, you need experts who are always looking for a better solution. By integrating value and cost management, RLB has developed a powerful and dynamic approach that can help you explore different options and challenge design assumptions. Our specialist MEP cost managers add value by providing detailed cost advice in relation to MEP services and, where appropriate, are able to challenge designs.
Unlock the benefits of BIM
Building information modelling (BIM) has an important role in reducing building life cycle costs. Accurate estimating relies on high-quality historical data and BIM information from previous projects can materially improve the quality of data used to prepare high-level cost budgets on new projects. Our experts will help you unlock BIM’s benefits in cost planning.
Deliver value-driven outcomes
Our bespoke cost planning ROSS5D software can interface with BIM files generated by designers and consultants, enabling our cost consultants to prepare accurate estimates and bills of quantities from BIM models. This tool is integrated with both our carbon and life cycle cost calculation tools, supporting our sustainability and whole life cost services to deliver value-driven outcomes.
