Practical thinking on MEP cost.
Analysis, guidance and market observations from our work across MEP cost planning, procurement and cost intelligence.
The BCIS All-in TPI was never built to measure MEP.
The All-in TPI describes the wider tender market. We explain why MEP inflation allowances need package-specific evidence and set out three questions to ask of any Stage 2 or 3 MEP cost plan.
What good looks like in MEP cost planning.
Our first series explores how to define scope, assess cost firmness, record assumptions, explain cost movement and maintain a traceable basis for MEP costs. Each paper addresses a practical question project teams face.
How scope definition has become a cost discipline and what good looks like in practice.
Cost firmness by evidence, not stage.
The structure, language and level of detail that makes an assumption register useful rather than decorative.
A structured approach to explaining cost movement between stages, package by package.
What the golden thread means for cost information, and how it should be recorded through a project.
