Our vision is to be the trusted commercial and contractual partner for the transport sector—driving value, managing risk, and supporting the delivery of efficient, sustainable infrastructure.

Quantity Surveying

Comprehensive QS services across the full transport project lifecycle — from initial cost planning and procurement through to contract administration and final account resolution.

  • Procurement strategy and full tender management
  • Commercial management and contract administration
  • Interim valuations, variations and EoT assessment
  • Value engineering and lifecycle costing
  • Final account preparation, negotiation and resolution
$

What you get

Complete commercial control throughout your transport project — from a fundable cost plan at design stage through to a fully agreed final account, with full visibility at every point between.

Estimating

Accurate, evidence-based cost intelligence for transport infrastructure projects at every stage — from high-level feasibility budgets through to fully itemised Bills of Quantities. Our estimates are built from first principles using real benchmark data drawn from comparable transport programmes, site visits and current market rates.

 

  • Preliminary and order-of-cost estimates at feasibility
  • RIBA Stage 1–4 elemental cost plans
  • Bill of Quantities preparation for tender
  • Cost benchmarking against comparable transport projects
  • Risk-adjusted cost modelling and contingency assessment
  • Estimating support for contractors bidding on transport packages
$

What you get

Reliable cost figures grounded in real transport sector data — giving you the confidence to commit to the next project stage, or the clarity to recalibrate before significant cost is committed.

Dispute Resolution

Expert claims analysis, preparation and defence across transport infrastructure contracts — supporting clients, contractors and subcontractors through mediation, adjudication and arbitration. We bring technical knowledge of transport programmes and deep contractual expertise to every dispute, preparing positions that are credible, well-evidenced and commercially robust.

 

  • Claims analysis, preparation and formal defence
  • Adjudication referral and response preparation
  • Mediation, adjudication and arbitration support
  • Independent expert reporting and forensic quantum analysis
  • Extension of time and loss & expense assessment
  • Dispute avoidance strategy during construction
$

What you get

A technically grounded, commercially credible position — prepared by people who understand transport contracts, programmes and costs. Resolution-focused, not escalation-focused.

Contract Advisory

Clear, practical contractual advice across the full range of transport sector contract forms — from NEC4 and FIDIC through to TfL and Network Rail-specific frameworks and bespoke agreements. We advise on risk allocation, entitlement, obligations and mitigation strategy — helping transport clients understand their position and make informed commercial decisions at every stage.

 

  • NEC4, JCT, FIDIC and bespoke transport contract advice
  • TfL and rail-specific contractual framework guidance
  • Risk allocation and mitigation strategy
  • Commercial audit and compliance services
  • Contractual correspondence drafting and review
  • Early warning and notice management
$

What you get

A clear understanding of what your transport contract means, what you're entitled to, and what your obligations are — so you can act with confidence and protect your position before issues escalate.

Sector expertise

Delivering value across every mile.

We work across the entire transport ecosystem — mainline rail, light rail, aviation, highways, ports and intermodal hubs — supporting clients, contractors and government bodies with robust commercial strategies and expert dispute resolution. Whatever the transport mode or programme scale, we bring the same standard of commercial expertise to every engagement.

Rail

Mainline and high-speed rail, metro and light rail — from major programmes such as Crossrail through to Network Rail renewals and maintenance portfolios.

Aviation

Airport infrastructure, airside works and passenger facilities — including full lifecycle delivery across the London City Airport airside portfolio from £10K to £20.5M.

Highways & Roads

Road infrastructure, motorway improvement schemes and local highway works — commercial support aligned with Highways England and local authority procurement frameworks.

Urban Mobility & Light Rail

Tram, light rail and urban transit systems — including DLR and London Trams — where operational continuity, safety and precision delivery are paramount.

Ports & Maritime

Port infrastructure, marine structures and intermodal facilities — commercial management in complex, regulated marine environments requiring specialist contractual knowledge.

Programme & Framework Delivery

Multi-project transport frameworks and long-term delivery programmes — commercial management and estimating across portfolios of concurrent projects under DfT and public procurement frameworks.

"Quant Measur are dedicated professionals who ensure each project, irrespective of the magnitude, is delivered on time and on budget. To do this on a consistent basis Quant Measur have become key within the operations team at London City Airport. To their credit the rest of the team do not see them as consultants but more as colleagues who play a critical part in achieving success."
