Bids Under Budget: WSCC Business Ed. Renovation
We're proud that our estimates vs. actual project budgeting track record continues to be strong. We received bids on 5/14/13 for this renovation of space for Wallace State Community College's Business Education program. The bids were all within a tight range, and were 1.9% under our estimate. Our historical cost estimating track record is approx. 2% under budget, so these results are very close to that.
Accurate cost estimating throughout the phases of project development is a very important service Aho Architects provides our clients. We have projects bidding all the time, and use the feedback from those results to fine-tune our estimating process. The results of this process speak for themselves, and we're very pleased to be able to help our clients budget accurately and plan effectively for their capital projects.

CACC Biology Lab Project Bids are in Budget
Yesterday, we received bids for the Biology Lab Renovation Project for Central Alabama Community College, Alexander City campus. This project is the first construction project bid under a multi-year Open-End agreement for projects <$250,000 which CACC awarded Aho Architects a few months ago.
The biology lab renovation project converts existing general classroom space into a state-of-the-art lecture/classroom/laboratory facility for the college's biology classes.
A total of 6 bids were received from pre-qualified general contractors, and the results were within budget and within 1% of our cost estimate, a testament to our team's estimating abilities.
