THE SAVINGS

To demonstrate the time and cost savings that can be made on a tender we have used a small commercial project to run the numbers for document quantity.

These numbers represent 8,000 drawings and documents that need to be identified for each trade, copied, collated, have a cover sheet or transmittal prepared and then distributed, that’s huge and generally takes a few days and a large photocopy bill.

.

Average No of Drawings / Docs Per Project: 80

Average No of Drawings / Docs Per Trade: 50

Average Number of Trades Per Job: 40

Average No of Tenderers Per Trade: 4

Average No of Tenderers Per Project: 160

And that’s just for the tender

documentation!!

A main contractor can make significant savings on each tender. Compared to using a traditional tender drawing distribution method, utilising the CATProjects Service will save around $13,500 per tender based on the example used. And its not just the time and cost saving that needs to be considered, there is also the increase in tendering capacity. If the tender is successful the volume of documents throughout the project will be at least that many again and more likely around 15,000 based on an average of 5 revisions per drawing which will give you a further cost saving of over $10,000 per project, that’s a potential saving of $25,000 per project.
