Opinion of Cost. Cost control, and maintaining the overall project cost within the Owner’s project budget is a very important part of this project.

Opinion of Cost. An engineer's opinion of probable construction cost will be developed on the 30% design level using present value dollars and will include a schedule of estimated quantities, unit prices, contingencies, and total construction cost for the project.
Opinion of Cost. When asked by a client to provide construction cost estimates for your project, avoid framing it as a “cost estimate” and instead offer to prepare “an engineer’s opinion of probable construction costs.” By referring to your work product as an opinion of probable construction cost, it reduces confusion between the information you are providing as a design engineer at the design stage of a project from cost estimates provided by contractors and estimators experienced in preparing detailed construction cost estimates. The engineer’s opinion of probable construction cost should define the sources and methodology used to develop that opinion, including when and where those sources were derived. The agreement should state that when providing a client with an engineer’s opinion of probable construction costs, there is no guarantee that the construction bids will come in at those costs. Provide a statement with the opinion that contractors base their bids on their in-house experience, price quotes from selected subcontractors and prevailing market conditions, all of which can change over time. Prevailing market conditions can include the number of bidders, fluctuations in the pricing and cost of materials and systems, contractor’s previous bid experience and whether bidders are already busy (or not). Contingencies should be included in the opinion of probable construction cost. Organizations such as the American Association of Cost Engineers International provide guidelines for how much contingency to include at various phases of the project. If the client needs construction cost estimates they can rely upon, recommend the engagement of a professional construction cost estimator or a contractor. Do not appear or take on the role of a financial advisor unless you are so qualified and in compliance with local, state, and federal regulations including the Xxxx-Xxxxx Act and have checked coverage with your agent/broker.
Opinion of Cost. Because ENGINEER's experience and qualifications, ENGINEER is in the best position to estimate Total Project Costs and Construction Cost. CITY shall rely on the opinions of probable Total Project Costs and Construction Cost provided by ENGINEER. ENGINEER cannot guarantee that proposals, bids or actual Total Project or Construction Costs will not vary from opinions of probable cost prepared by ENGINEER.
