SURCO Limited launches online cost file
SURCO Limited, the trading company of ICES, has launched an online civil engineering cost file (CECF). The cost file, available now, will be an invaluable tool to those involved in preparing budget estimates, quantum on claims, valuations of variations and final accounts. It will be constantly monitored and a revised edition issued at least three times each year. The file consists of thousands of fully-priced civil engineering items presented in accordance with the requirements of CESMM3. Each item is broken down into labour, plant and material costs to produce a net total plus an allowance for profit and overheads to give a gross charge-out rate. Access to the CECF is gained online at www.cecf.uk.com It is worth noting that in the future subscribers will also have access to previous editions of the cost file which will be archived for easy access. The yearly subscription cost is at an introductory rate of £125. A free sample of the earthworks section can be viewed online now. |

Chris joins the Institution with 40 years’ experience in the construction industry. During this time, he has been engaged by civil engineering and building contractors working principally within the northern and Midlands regions of the UK, most recently with Alfred McAlpine.
