## A clear brief is the starting point.

A quantity surveying brief should explain the commercial question you need to answer and the stage of the project. You may need to understand quantities, compare a tender, organise a change record or improve the information used to monitor costs. Different tasks require different inputs and levels of responsibility.

Use this page to outline the QS or commercial support you would like to discuss with OpTyTech. Identify the work package, the documents available and the output expected. Discuss the required specialist input, scope and responsibility for your project before an appointment is confirmed.

Reliable source information matters. Current drawings, specifications, tender documents, measurement assumptions and a consistent change register help make the requirement understandable. Highlight gaps or conflicting revisions early so they can be addressed in the brief.

## What would you like to discuss?

### Tender and estimating support

Describe the package being priced, the measurement basis, the information available and the comparison you need. Explain how assumptions, exclusions and qualifications should be presented.

### Commercial records and changes

Identify the cost reports, variation records, supporting evidence and review dates involved. Clarify who has authority to approve changes and how decisions are recorded.

### Project-stage assistance

Explain whether support is needed before tender, during delivery or at close-out. State the required deliverables, reporting frequency and interfaces with the project and client teams.

## What to include in your brief

- Project location, sector, stage and the work package concerned.
- The specific commercial task and the decision the output will support.
- Available drawings, specifications, schedules and their revision dates.
- Measurement assumptions, reporting format and known information gaps.
- Required deadlines, reporting frequency and access to project records.
- The responsible decision-maker and any specialist review or contractual authority required.

Use the initial enquiry for a useful summary. Document-sharing arrangements and any engagement terms can be discussed once the requirement is understood.

## Useful questions

### What does QS mean?

QS stands for quantity surveying. In a project brief, explain the particular commercial or measurement task rather than relying on the abbreviation alone.

### Can I ask about support for a single work package?

Yes. Describe that package, the information you can provide and the output you need. A focused brief makes scope and responsibility easier to agree.

### Should confidential tender records be entered in the public form?

Use the form for an initial summary. Ask for an appropriate document-sharing arrangement before sending commercially sensitive records or information about third parties.

## Let us understand your requirement.

Share your company details, the work involved and the result you need. We will use your enquiry to discuss the appropriate next step.
