ABSTRACT
The
purpose of this project work is based on the assessment on the approximate
estimate performance in forecasting the actual cost of construction project in
Kaduna state Nigeria. The problem is that improving the cost performance of
construction project remains one of the challenges facing the construction
industry; therefore the essence of this work is to enhance the accuracy and
efficiency in actualizing the actual cost of construction project. The
project highlighted the background of the study and also discussed the problem statement, aims and objectives, significance of the study,
scope and limitations of the study and among others, also in the literature review
of the study, nature of the construction industry were discussed and concept of
estimating with approaches of estimating were also discussed. The study therefore found that approach to
approximate estimating has brought about a road map in estimation of
construction project. it is therefore advise that consultancy and construction
firms should endeavour to use this method which in actualizing the actual cost
of construction project in other to give
client value for his money. Finally, the
conclusive recommendation in assessment on approximate estimate performance in
forecasting the actual cost of construction project should be done to attain
the aims and objectives of this study.
