Contract Administration
The surveyors at Stephen D Buxton & Associates develop working drawings and specifications produced by the design team into finished buildings.
This involves advising on the most suitable procurement method for a particular project and thereafter preparing appropriate tender documentation, inviting tenders from suitable contractors, advising on the tenders returned, letting the contract and monitoring the work in progress until completion. The monitoring work often involves the preparation of interim valuations and the certifying payments.

At Stephen Buxton & Associates we have experienced Chartered Surveyors who can advise you on the best course of action. wether it be a Lump Sum Minor works, Intermediate form, Standard form or a Design & Build etc.
Project Strategy

The client’s policies, available resources, organisational structure and preferred contractual arrangements will need to be taken into account.
