Perform the engineering services through own (in-house) resources. Omit the consulting engineering services (with no in-house capability) and appro ach the contracting/supplier industry directly for turnkey proposals, which incl udes design, supply, installation and commissioning.

The second option (direct industry approach) may look economical on the face of it, but poses several disadvantages that have frequently resulted in far higher cost than the additional cost for a consulting engineering service. These disadv antages include typically:

Being commercially independent from any contractor or supplier, the consulting engineer is in an ideal position to evaluate alternative system concepts during the design stages of a project. These investigations may save the client multipl es of the consultant's cost in capital and running cost of plant. The contractor's design cost is built into the tender prices and would be the s ame or more than the design fees of a consultant. The contractor will also build into the tender price the cost of design liability insurance to cover design mi stakes or poor design. Because these costs are normally hidden, the contracting organisation has no way of knowing what the design cost is. On the other hand, a consulting engineer's design fees are clearly stipulated and agreed and can be compared to internationally accepted norms. When only one contractor/supplier is approached, there is usually no way of eva luating the competitiveness of his price, unless the scope is standardized, or c an be compared to similar scope of works recently procured. Consulting engineers normally are able to negotiate a competitive price from a single contractor/sup plier by using schedules of quantities and applying known industry rates.

When more than one contractor/supplier is approached it is frequently very diffi cult to compare the technical quality and scope of tender offers and the lowest price may well be based on inferior scope and quality compared to other tender o ffers. Also, without in-house capability the contracting organisation will find it difficult to evaluate the quality of works/equipment offered. Consulting engi neers provide technical specifications and all tenders are based on the same sco pe and quality of works. Some contractors/suppliers offer only part of the scope (with resultant reduced price) and then offer the remaining scope during the contract at a high rate or price. Consulting engineers represent the contracting organisation (client) during the construction stage of a project and verify on the client's behalf whether the in stallation complies with specified requirements.
