The design quotation for factory construction is a crucial stage in the bidding process for construction projects. When researching design quotations, investors need to clearly understand the cost items to prepare their finances accordingly. Therefore, creating a detailed quotation plan is essential for design companies to persuade investors to choose them as strategic partners, which ultimately determines the success of the bidding project. In this article, BIC will list the necessary items to include in the design quotation for factory construction.
- Listening and recording: Architects or engineers will receive information from clients regarding the intended use, projected scale, functional requirements, aesthetics, and other factors related to the factory.
- Gathering information: Clients need to provide details about the land area, construction location, estimated budget, and any other technical requirements (if applicable).
- Surveying the current situation: The design team and engineers will conduct a site survey to assess the actual conditions, terrain, and factors affecting the design.
