2.5.9
Cost planning
2.5.9.1
Review the Cost Information.
Provide information to the cost consultant for the initial cost
plan and cash flow projection (or prepare an approximation of
construction cost if appointed to do so).
2.5.9.2 Compare the initial cost plan and cash flow forecast with the
latest approved cost.
2.5.9.3 Discuss with the design team and the client the effect of major
design decisions on the allocations within the cost plan before
they are taken.
An increase in cost of one element, e.g. for a sophisticated external wall
cladding system, may require corresponding savings in other areas,
such as the mechanical services installation. Changes in the initial cost
plan may require adjustment of the budget and fees, and these changes
should be agreed with the client.
