Who we are.

Commercial clarity
for growing
contractors.

Quantified MEP combines engineering expertise with commercial insight to produce clear, structured cost advice grounded in detailed analysis of drawings, specifications, and supply chain input.

Our approach provides full visibility of cost and risk — enabling informed decisions and stronger commercial outcomes. We typically support MEP contractors delivering projects between £100k and £3m, ensuring tenders are precise, competitive, and built for profitable completion.

01.

Tenders built on incomplete information lead to underpricing, risk exposure, and reduced profitability.

02.

Without clear cost breakdowns, contractors struggle to understand where margin is won or lost.

03.

Supplier pricing is not always challenged or aligned with the wider tender strategy, impacting cost control.

04.

Opportunities to optimise design and installation methods are overlooked, resulting in unnecessary cost.

What we do.

Four disciplines.
One outcome.

A structured, commercially-driven estimating and advisory process designed to deliver clarity, accuracy, and control at every stage of the tender.

01
Take-offs & Measurement.

Precision,
Measured.

Detailed measurement and quantification directly from drawings and specifications, ensuring all scope is captured and clearly defined. This removes reliance on assumptions and provides a structured, transparent basis for pricing.

Client implication.

Greater accuracy at tender stage reduces the risk of omissions, rework, and cost exposure during delivery.

Value Engineering.

Procurement,
Optimised.

Value engineering applied to identify practical opportunities to improve cost efficiency without compromising performance or compliance. We review design, materials, and installation methods to challenge unnecessary complexity.

Client implication.

Improved cost efficiency, greater certainty in delivery, and solutions commercially aligned with the tender strategy.

Supply Chain Review.

Value,
Engineered.

We review supplier and subcontractor pricing in detail, challenge assumptions, and align procurement decisions with the overall tender strategy. This ensures pricing is both competitive and commercially sound.

Client implication.

Stronger cost certainty, reduced supplier risk exposure, and enhanced margin protection across all packages.

Assured.

A structured commercial review ensuring all elements of the tender are aligned, accurate, and commercially robust. We assess cost build-ups, margin position, risk allowances, and overall pricing strategy prior to submission.

Client implication.

Greater confidence at submission stage and a clearer understanding of commercial risk and opportunity.

About.

The expertise behind
the numbers.

Quantified MEP was founded to address a clear gap in the market: growing mechanical contractors needed professional commercial expertise but couldn't justify a full-time commercial team.

We bring the depth of a senior commercial consultant directly to your tender process — combining hands-on estimating experience with a structured, systems-driven approach that produces consistent, reliable results.

Operating as an independent consultancy, we provide bespoke pricing structures aligned with each client's supplier terms. Direct access to a knowledgeable professional from day one.
