Construction Cost Control


Construction budgets rarely fail in one big moment — they erode quietly, item by item, until the final cost is far above the estimate. TAKAWA controls cost the only way that reliably works: a detailed bill of quantities at the start, and continuous tracking through our in-house ERP system as the work proceeds. The result is a budget that stays visible and predictable from estimate to handover.

Scope of work

  • Detailed BOQ preparation, item by item
  • Cost tracking through our in-house ERP system
  • Comparison of actual spend against the budget as work proceeds
  • Pricing and approval of variations before work continues
  • Regular cost reporting so the budget is always clear

BOQ plus ERP — control that holds

Real cost control starts with a precise BOQ, because you cannot manage what you have not defined. From there, our ERP system at erp.takawadesign.com links those planned figures to actual purchasing and site progress. As the project moves, we compare what is being spent against what was planned and act on differences early — long before they become an end-of-project surprise.

Why TAKAWA

We built this approach because we run real projects, from small works to over 100 million baht. Owning our workforce, machinery and a material warehouse also gives us better information about true costs. Whether we are building your project or supporting one run by others, our cost control gives you a budget you can actually trust.

Frequently Asked Questions


What is a BOQ and why does it matter?
A bill of quantities (BOQ) is a detailed breakdown of every item of work and material with its quantity and price. It turns a vague budget into a precise, line-by-line basis for the project — which is what makes real cost control possible.
How does your ERP system help control cost?
Our in-house ERP at erp.takawadesign.com links the BOQ to actual purchasing and progress. As work proceeds, we can compare what is being spent against what was planned, line by line, and act on differences early.
What happens when I want to change something mid-project?
We price the change against the BOQ and agree it with you before any work proceeds. That way every variation is a decision you made knowingly, and the budget always reflects the current scope.
Can you provide cost control for a project you are not building?
Yes. We can apply our BOQ and ERP-based cost control to projects managed or built by others, bringing budget discipline to work that needs it.
