The Consultant shall prepare a preliminary construction cost estimate of the Cost of the Work in order to confirm the initial cost and program premise of the Project as soon as possible during the Schematic Design Documents phase. This estimate may be based on area, volume or similar conceptual estimating techniques. The Cost of the Work includes the construction cost at current market rates of labor and materials, with all specified features and equipment, plus Contractor overhead and profit for the Project as defined by the Owner and designed by the Consultant. The initial Cost of the Work may eventually be modified by the bid contingency and project contingency. The Consultant shall update and refine the preliminary construction cost estimate of the Cost of the Work at least one additional time at the end of the Construction Documents phase. The Consultant shall make recommendations and advise the Owner of any proposed modifications to the design due to reconciliation of the Project Budget and estimates of the Cost of the Work, at each stage of design.
