What may affect the estimate
Massachusetts public construction estimates should be checked against the project-specific bid package and the applicable Department of Labor Standards wage schedule. The project location, work classifications, and addenda can change the estimating basis.
Public procurement context
Massachusetts public construction follows state public-bidding requirements, and awarding authorities provide project-specific bid information. Use the current solicitation, drawings, specifications, forms, and addenda as the controlling documents.
Labor and wage context
Massachusetts requires prevailing wage on covered public works, with schedules issued for the project and applicable classifications. Include the current schedule when it is part of the bid package; do not apply one statewide rate to every project.
Choose the estimating scope for your Massachusetts project
Select the work you need measured or priced. Trade boundaries, drawing revisions, labor inputs and exclusions should be confirmed in the written quote; these services are delivered remotely, not from a local office.
For public work, confirm the applicable solicitation, project jurisdiction, wage requirements and addenda with the issuing authority; the resource links below are starting points, not a determination of project compliance.
Estimating scope and limitations
F&K can prepare quantity takeoffs, construction estimates, scope reviews, and preconstruction support from the documents provided. PlanSwift and Bluebeam may be used for digital measurement and markups when appropriate.
F&K does not engineer designs, stamp calculations, certify code compliance, obtain permits, or represent a client before an authority having jurisdiction. Applicable requirements remain the responsibility of the project’s qualified professionals and authorities.

Use the national quantity takeoff scope to define the measured output. F&K US sample pages support inspection of selected quantities, units and drawing references; they do not verify every trade, a local office or a completed project in this region.
Provide the project address, current issued drawings and addenda, the required units and trade interfaces. Agree how omissions, allowances, drawing discrepancies and revised quantities will be recorded. Use the sample evidence library to inspect the available format before requesting an output.
Pricing, labor productivity, permit interpretation and procurement quantities require their own agreed basis. Confirm these items and revision terms in the scope request.
