Lead - Estimation

• Prepare detailed cost estimates for Data Centre construction projects with focus on MEP packages.
• Review drawings, technical specifications, BOQs, tender documents, and design inputs for estimation.
• Develop item-wise and package-wise estimates for Electrical / Mechanical / HVAC / Fire Fighting / Plumbing / ELV / BMS systems.
• Conduct quantity take-offs from drawings and validate quantities for tendering and budgeting.
• Prepare concept estimates, detailed estimates, and pre-bid cost plans based on project stage.
• Analyze scope gaps, exclusions, assumptions, and risks in the tender/estimation phase.

• Support preparation of techno-commercial proposals for new projects.
• Coordinate with internal stakeholders for RFQ floating, vendor queries, cost inputs, and bid clarifications.
• Compare vendor/subcontractor quotations and prepare comparative statements.
• Assist in finalization of cost benchmarks, pricing strategy, and bid submissions.
• Identify commercial risks and provide inputs during tender review meetings.

• Review design inputs related to Electrical systems (HT/LT, DG, UPS, transformers, bus ducts, cable trays, lighting, earthing) and Mechanical systems (HVAC, chillers, CRAH/CRAC, piping, ventilation, firefighting, plumbing).
• Assess project requirements in line with Data Centre standards, redundancy philosophy, uptime expectations, and constructability.
• Work closely with design/engineering teams to ensure estimation aligns with project specifications and execution realities.

• Liaise with OEMs, vendors, subcontractors, and suppliers for budgetary quotes and technical-commercial inputs.
• Maintain updated database of rates, cost benchmarks, approved vendors, and historical project costs.
• Track market trends in key materials/equipment such as UPS, DG, transformers, switchgear, chillers, pipes, ducts, fire systems, ELV and BMS components.

• Identify opportunities for cost optimization and value engineering without compromising project quality, reliability, or compliance.
• Suggest alternate materials, systems, and execution methodologies where feasible.
• Support leadership in preparation of budget vs estimate analysis and savings opportunities.

• Coordinate with Projects, Design, Procurement, Contracts, Finance, and Commercial teams during estimation and bid stages.
• Provide estimation support for change orders, variation claims, and budget revisions.
• Participate in internal reviews for project feasibility and capex planning.
