CONTRACT MANAGEMENT, FROM GROUND-BREAKING TO HAND-OVER.

Our core discipline is the active administration of construction, building and engineering contracts — the financial spine that keeps complex projects on programme, on budget and contractually sound from first claim to final account.

▍ Where we add the most value during construction

  • 01

    Contract Preparation & Award

    Drafting, negotiation and execution of construction contracts (JBCC, NEC, FIDIC, GCC) — formalising scope, price, programme and risk allocation before a spade hits the ground.

  • 02

    Payment Certification & Cash Flow

    Monthly valuations, interim payment certificates and cash-flow forecasting that keep contractors paid fairly and clients in control of expenditure.

  • 03

    Variations & Change Control

    Pricing, assessing and administering variation orders so design changes and site instructions are captured, justified and reflected in the final account.

  • 04

    Claims & Extension of Time

    Independent assessment of contractor claims, loss & expense and EoT submissions — protecting the client while ensuring entitlement is fairly resolved.

  • 05

    Cost Reporting & Forecasting

    Live cost reports against budget, anticipated final cost and risk exposure, giving funders and project boards a single source of truth each month.

  • 06

    Final Account & Close-Out

    Negotiation and agreement of the final account, retention release and contractual close-out — every rand reconciled and signed off.

  • 07

    Signature Software Packages

    Our in-house software suite underpins every appointment. Each platform is purpose-built by quantity surveyors for quantity surveyors, giving the professional team live visibility and removing the guesswork from measurement, tendering, contract administration and feasibility.

    Bruco Feasibility

    Bruco Feasibility

    Insight Today. Value Tomorrow.

    Models the feasibility of a development against the client's brief and the land itself — testing cost, yield and return to land-commitment accuracy so go / no-go decisions rest on defensible numbers before a spade is bought or a stand is committed.

    Bruco Take-Off Pro

    Bruco Take-Off Pro

    Measure. Quantify. Win.

    Fast, defensible digital measurement taken off directly from the drawings — every quantity traceable back to its source, so take-off arguments between the professional team and the contractor simply fall away.

    Bruco Tender Desk

    Bruco Tender Desk

    Transparent tender evaluation.

    Side-by-side tender evaluation against consistent, weighted criteria, with a defensible, auditable recommendation record and transparent clarifications fair to all parties.

    Bruco Group Contract Manager

    Bruco Contract Manager

    Live contract administration.

    Live contract administration, cost control and reporting across the whole project team — the contract, not memory, sets the rules, keeping the team and the contractor bound to the contract.

    Bruco Drawing Intelligence

    Bruco Drawing Intelligence

    Drawings, read and reconciled.

    Reads the drawing set the way a quantity surveyor does — extracting and reconciling layers, elements and schedules straight from the source sheets, so clashes and omissions between drawings are caught before measurement begins and every quantity traces back to a verified drawing.
