Electrical estimating that makes the detail visible
MX Electrical Estimating helps UK electrical contractors develop a structured estimate from their tender documents. The assignment starts by agreeing drawings, revisions, specifications, schedules and the required outputs. This gives the quantities and pricing a defined basis, with outstanding information recorded instead of quietly assumed.
Measured take-offs and transparent pricing
The scope can include containment, lighting, emergency lighting, distribution, small power, cabling, terminations, earthing and bonding. Specialist packages are agreed separately. Labour allowances, material pricing, plant and other agreed costs are presented in a cost build-up you can interrogate. Your supplied labour rates and purchasing arrangements can be reflected in the estimate.
Supplier comparisons and scope gaps
Quotation totals are checked against what they cover where supplier review is included. Exclusions, accessories, commissioning and delivery can affect comparability. Drawing inconsistencies and unpriced interfaces are highlighted so you can decide what to query, allow for or qualify. Design and specialist technical input are scoped separately where required.
An estimate you can use
Deliverables can include an editable estimate, section summaries, measured schedules and a review discussion. The aim is information you can use for the final bid and project handover. The contractor retains responsibility for the selling price, margin and final submission.
Fees and getting started
Full estimates start from £500 for appropriately scoped assignments. Send the project brief, drawings, specification, return requirements and deadline for an agreed fee and delivery proposal. Price depends on document volume, complexity and outputs. VAT, where applicable, and additional work are agreed before booking.
