Why this course?
Urban infrastructure is the backbone of every city—encompassing roads, bridges, drainage, water supply, sewerage, street lighting, utilities, landscaping, and solid waste management systems. To ensure these projects are planned, executed, and delivered efficiently, engineers and quantity surveyors must possess a strong understanding of estimation and BOQ (Bill of Quantities) preparation.
This Professional Certification on Urban Infrastructure Estimation and BOQ Preparation is designed to help civil engineers, project estimators, quantity surveyors, and site managers master the principles, calculations, and documentation methods used in the estimation process for large-scale urban development projects. The course is tailored for projects following Indian standards such as CPWD, MoUD, and PWD SORs, and is also relevant to Smart City and AMRUT initiatives.
The program provides a complete understanding—from data collection and survey interpretation to detailed rate analysis and BOQ documentation—ensuring participants gain both theoretical knowledge and practical skills applicable in real-world projects.
The main objective of this course is to equip professionals with end-to-end skills in estimation, costing, and BOQ preparation for urban infrastructure works, including roads, drains, utilities, public spaces, and municipal facilities. Participants will learn how to interpret drawings, quantify materials, apply correct rates, and prepare clear, auditable BOQ documents used for tenders, contracts, and billing.
