Monument

For quantity surveyors

Cost plans. Bills of quantities.
Contract administration.
Software for the practice your takeoff tool ignores.

Quantity surveyors run five engagements on every project — cost plans, BoQs, tender, contract admin, final account — and a stack of estimating tools that handle none of it.
Monument plans the engagements, resources the team across them, and tracks margin on every one — in one live model.

14-day trial. No credit card required.

Concept cost plan, schematic, detailed, BoQ, contract admin — five engagements on one project. Your tool sees one job.

QS work runs through phased cost advice that maps to the architect's program but bills on its own terms. Monument models every engagement on every project — fees, scopes, and burn tracked separately, rolled up to one client view.

CostX measures the building. Nothing measures the practice.

Takeoff tools (CostX, Cubit, WinQS) handle estimating beautifully — but project profitability, fee burn, and resource utilisation live nowhere. Monument is the practice-management layer your specialist software was never built to be.

Contract administration runs for two years. Progress claims arrive monthly. Margin is invisible until final account.

Long-running contract admin engagements quietly bleed fee while everyone's focused on the next BoQ. Monument tracks live fee burn against every contract admin engagement — so you know which jobs are heading underwater while you can still respond.

Pre-contract surges for tender. Post-contract drip-feeds for years. Same team, opposite patterns.

Cost planning and BoQ work concentrates on senior staff and burns hot for weeks. Contract administration spreads thin across the team for years at low monthly burn. Monument shows utilisation across both halves of the practice — so you can pitch the next cost plan knowing who’s free, not guessing.

One connected system.

Schedule, resourcing, time, invoicing, and financials — connected in one live model.
