Job Description

Minimum of 2+ years of experience in MEP estimation for residential or villa construction projects, with a strong understanding of MEP systems such as HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and fire protection.

Key Responsibilities:

Cost Estimation and Budgeting:

Prepare detailed cost estimates for all MEP systems, including HVAC, plumbing, fire protection, and electrical systems in villa projects. Review and analyze project specifications, drawings, and scope of work to identify all materials, equipment, and labor needed for MEP works. Provide accurate and competitive pricing for MEP services, considering project requirements, timeline, and cost constraints. Develop and maintain cost databases to compare historical project data with current trends to ensure accurate estimates.

Design Review and Scope Clarification:

Review MEP design plans, specifications, and drawings to ensure all necessary components are included for cost estimation. Coordinate with the engineering team and subcontractors to clarify the scope of work and identify any discrepancies or omissions in the design.

Cost Control and Financial Reporting:

Monitor MEP costs throughout the construction phase to ensure the project stays within budget. Provide detailed reports on the cost status of MEP work, including any cost-saving opportunities or cost overruns. Assist in contract negotiations and cost management through the project lifecycle.

Value Engineering:

Recommend alternative materials or construction methods to reduce costs without compromising quality or project performance. Review value engineering proposals and provide feedback on their feasibility and cost-effectiveness.

Project Coordination and Communication:

Work closely with architects, engineers, contractors, and project managers to ensure all MEP systems are accurately estimated and coordinated. Participate in project meetings to discuss scope, risks, and challenges related to MEP systems. Provide regular updates and reports on MEP cost estimates to senior management and stakeholders.

Required Skills and Qualifications:

Educational Requirements:

Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Civil Engineering, or a related field. Certification in MEP Estimation or Quantity Surveying is a plus.
