6 Significance of the Bill of Quantity for
Building and Construction

BOQ Item Number
  • This is used to identify the item in the BOQ.
    While working, it is very difficult to memorize
    where that BOQ item is. In this situation, BOQ
    Item number comes in handy.

BOQ Item Description
  • Detailed description of the item is given in this
    section. This is the most crucial part (heart of
    BOQ). We need to make sure we understand every
    word of it. If we misinterpret even a single
    word, we might face huge financial loss. (Many
    companies experience this)

Unit of Measurement
  • Proper care must be taken care of while quoting a
    tender. For example, some vendors give you rates
    for tiles in Square meter and some vendors give
    their rate in square feet. You need to go through
    this section well.

Quantity
  • This is self explanatory. How much quantity of
    the item is required will be available in this
    section.

6
Rate
  • Proper care should be taken care while reading
    the rate. Is the quoted rate for an item is for
    the item itself or along with its accessories.

Total Amount
  • Quantity x Rate gives you Total amount. In case
    of electrical or machinery/equipment part,
    therell be a separate section for Supplying the
    materials and Installation of materials
