What I bring
Five strengths · each one backed by real documents on this page
Estimates, BOQs & takeoffs
Works and materials estimates, bills of quantities and takeoffs from drawings or a site survey, in the client's own format. 69 real documents below, from a $2K bathroom to a $4.3M concrete frame.
E-163 · Q-104 · E-138Estimate audit
Line-by-line review of estimates against the drawings, market prices and the spreadsheet's own formulas. Typical finds: totals that count subtotals twice, duplicated prices, quantities copied from another job.
E-128 · E-148Construction control
Ten years of site supervision and QC: stage acceptance, checking completed quantities before every payment, change orders, progress billing and completion tracking.
E-134 · E-135 · E-126Tenders
Bids priced on the owner's own forms in English, Russian and Georgian: a 14-story concrete frame, 12-story residential finishing, industrial reconstruction, a plant checkpoint interior.
E-163 · E-107 · E-106 · Q-105Automation
The software the company runs on: a client portal that tracks every job from estimate to the last payment, Telegram bots, vector takeoff tools and a tender monitor, built and maintained by me.

Open scope questions go to the architect as RFIs. Order quantities carry 5% waste on VCT and 10% on porcelain.
