About Us
We’re a group of creative thinkers who have built a business to change the way in which professional services are delivered.
Mensura was established to solve a problem, i.e., that faced by Small and Medium sized Enterprises (SME) wishing to gain access to quality professional services but finding consultancies only offering large fees for 'standard' services much of which an SME doesn't want or need.
Wouldn't it be great if...
- I could just "buy" a cost plan?
- I knew what my fee expenditure was before I purchased the site?
- I had a cost consultancy service that I could "draw-down" when I need it rather than paying for services that are 'standard' but I don't need?
- If a single service provider could supply pre-contract, post-contract, dispute resolution and other services but I only commit to what I need when I need it?
- My consultant didn't have large overheads which get passed on to me?
- My consultant offered a lean service supplying only the services I need when I need them?
The benefit of our deconstructed service offering is that due to the nature of our lean approach the overall fee expenditure is much lower than a traditional consultancy. In addition, as our eshop services are all virtual we have very low overheads which are passed onto our clients as a saving on the overall fee expenditure. We have reviewed our service offering against Quantity Surveying fees provided by a traditional practice and for the same service offering our fee expenditure is between 20%-30% lower than our competitors. These savings are passed onto you.
Our Services
WHAT WE DO BEST...
Cost Consultancy
We are committed to making sure that costs are managed effectively throughout the project life cycle from initial feasibility through the construction phase to handover and beyond. We do this by means of Order of Cost Estimates and progressive Cost Planning and reporting.
Quantity Surveying
Our unique "deconstructed" approach to service provision means that we can provide tender documents for pricing together with tender document packages and tender return reviews that are focused on the specific work elements that you need to procure.
Building Surveying
Whether houses, public projects or commercial properties, our building surveyors are responsible for assessing the quality of buildings. Wearing many hats, we carry out surveys of buildings in accordance with RICS Home Surveys Reports standards and benchmarked to one of three levels.
Contract Management
Getting on site is just the start. Proper control of the contract is necessary for good financial management management. Our valuations, variation assessment and financial reporting will help you to keep a close eye on project finances and ensure proper spend profiles.
Dispute Management
We take steps to help you avoid disputes but where these arise we support you with a fixed cost adjudication scheme or independent Expert Witness services, as the need requires. We will also act as Adjudicator, upon request.
Independent Monitoring Services
Mensura provides professional Independent Monitoring Surveying services to banks and Lenders who require assurance that funds lent to Developers and Borrowers remain safely within their risk profiles and provide a return on investment.
We're good people to know.
Expert professionals delivering on your project.
As much or as little as you need to succeed.
