Is it a sustainable fee earning service for the QS? - 2003 - Building Economist June 2003, 4-12(8) .
Looks at the last decade and the substantial changes to the role of the consultant quantity surveyor within the construction industry particularly in light of the move towards sustainability. Evolving from a role which focused primarily upon the preparation of bills of quantities, the profession is now expected to provide total cost management of construction projects throughout their entire life cycle. Seeks to stimulate debate as to the sustainability of cost planning as a fee earning service provided by consultant quantity surveyors in the context of alternative procurement environments.
