MEP BOQ Pricing App

Product 1 — MEP BOQ Intelligence Tool

Price MEP work. Audit contractor quotes. Know when you're being overcharged.

Built by an MEP engineer with 20 years of hands-on BOQ experience, this AI-powered tool gives developers, project owners, and MEP estimation engineers direct access to 777 verified 2026 reference rates across Plumbing, HVAC, Electrical, and General Items.

Upload your Excel BOQ — the tool reads descriptions, quantities, and unit rates automatically, matches each line item to the reference database using AI, and returns priced output with full cost breakdowns: material, accessories, labour, and overhead at Premium, Medium, or Low specification tier.

For audit: upload a contractor's priced BOQ and get an instant variance report — items flagged over reference, identified overprice totalled, line by line.

Regional rates for GCC, USA, and Western Europe. Base cost only — you set your own margin.

Works offline. Opens in any browser. Requires an Anthropic API key ($5 covers ~2,000 sessions).

What's included: Standalone HTML app · 777-item Excel reference toolkit · 10-page audit guide · Worked case study

Product 2 — How to Read and Audit an MEP BOQ (PDF Guide)

Most project owners sign off on six-figure MEP quotes without understanding what they're reading. This guide changes that.

Written from 20 years of MEP engineering and BOQ pricing experience, it walks you through every column in a contractor's bill of quantities — what each number means, where the margin is hidden, and how to challenge it.

Covers the full audit process: identifying the specification tier, benchmarking unit rates, checking accessory and overhead ratios, spotting missing scope, and asking the right questions before you sign.

Includes a 20-point red flags checklist, a 5-step audit framework, a glossary of MEP terms, and a worked before-and-after case study showing $294,970 identified in a single project audit.

For developers, investors, project managers, and MEP engineers who price or review BOQs regularly.

10 pages. Practical. No filler.
