The Role of Estimators in Risk Management

Estimators play a vital role in identifying and managing risks in construction projects. This article explores how they contribute to risk management.

Risk Identification: Estimators assess potential risks related to costs, materials, labor, and project scope.

Risk Quantification: Estimators quantify the potential impact of risks on the project budget.

Contingency Planning: Estimators include contingency allowances to mitigate unforeseen risks.

Continuous Monitoring: Estimators track project expenses to ensure they align with the estimate and budget.

By actively managing risks, estimators help reduce the likelihood of budget overruns and project delays.
