Pricing and being competitive.
Hello, let’s start by saying I’m a land surveyor in the south in a big city. I have my own company (partner) and we are just getting rolling and bringing in the work in confident in providing. MY experience is in heavy construction, running vertical control on high-rises, setting grid lines, running control in tunnels, construction layout, 3d scanning and bim modeling.
As a new business owner I have a lot of questions on pricing, whether to bid lump sum or when to give T&M. How much is too much and what’s the sweet spot. I don’t know much surveyors that can help me in real life or lend an opinion so I’m asking here since this group has always been a help.
These projects are very big municipal commercial projects so very valuable. I do not want to be pricing to low and not taking that into account the size and scale and amount of sheer money attached to the project.
If you have experience with bidding this type of work or can help with pricing please dm me. If anyone can help or offer some tricks and tips for pricing in general please do. I’m young and just starting my business.
