​What is an Estimator?

An estimator within the construction industry is a professional responsible for producing the commercial aspects for a tender document with a view to securing new business. The estimator will do this by working out how much a project is likely to cost and create budgets accordingly. The job involves assessing material, labour and equipment requirements for the project and analysing different quotes from sub-contractors and suppliers.

​

An estimator can provide prices for everything from a one-off scheme to regular maintenance projects, which will be completed over several years. An estimator is concerned with getting the best price that will win the contract in a competitive bidding situation, while ensuring that the contract can be carried out profitably. Clients now award contracts based on quality of the service offered, as well as cost. So, when bidding for new work, the estimator, will look at quality as well as the overall costs.
