The Cost Base contains guidance on construction costs and is sponsored by EC Harris.

EC Harris is a professional services consultancy.  We provide solutions to public organisations through the management of the construction and operation of built assets.  Our clients tell us that we have an enviable track record in delivering value through the application of knowledge, professional skills and technology.

Our professional skills include quantity surveying, project management, building surveying, management consultancy, software development, facilities management and 15 other disciplines including engineering and design-related professions.

Knowledge of built assets, their construction and operation in over 20 countries around the world is combined with specific local government expertise delivered by people with many years of operational experience in the sector.

We extend our capacity and capability through alliances with selected companies and supply chains assembled for specific asset types, such as our Strategic Alliance with VT FourS Ltd.

Investment in technology enables us to provide consistency of delivery across our network of offices and to capture and transfer knowledge for our client's benefit.  All our people can access best practice service delivery processes and information sources designed for the public sector.

We also combine knowledge and software development skill to provide unique management information systems supporting improved asset management performance.

We find that our combination of knowledge, professional skill and technology and our attitude to clients and business enables us to improve the value our clients get from the planning, construction and operation of built assets. We do this for leading organisations on an international scale uniquely through our wholly owned network of offices.
