Quantity surveyors due to the essential services they render private and virtually to everyone as well as the indispensable position they occupy in this age of travel boon and shelter they cannot be left out in this world of computerization.
More so, when one talks of the huge capital that is involved in the establishment and running of quantity surveying as well as the dynamic nature of it’s business, one will readily welcome machines such as computer to assist man.
This project work is aimed at designing and implementing a bill of quantity system for quantity surveyors.
In Nigeria especially, the method used by most surveyors firm is manual, even though the nature and growth of the business has continued to demand for a better method. This manual method is lade with problems that are inherent such slow or sluggish nature, loss of paper and inaccuracy in the Okolo, Okolo & Co. surveying industry.
