Actually, beside that, do you provide BQ as well?

IMHO, those who don't provide details . Is for those for looking for short run in this industry. For those who already in this industry. They will started to realize , when it time to come. Some job or project even is good margin also is not happen in great timing for them. Don't over too insist on "fabrication" process that see money.


For details drawing, beside avoid any dispute on renovation . It also is a tools for owner to make bargaining . Request for final 3-5% discount. It also a schedule for owner to measure when their is the right time for owner to move in.

As An ID, we also a person who actually side for owner to make the best savings, deal ,outcome . This mentality can help for long run person. Your credit will be appreciated.

I'm pay my respect to you. Please keep your professional on this industry. Your works and input will bring this industry to better future.


*I'm not pointing anyone in this comment, if feels disturbed. I'm apologize for it.
*I'm not a person who can draw, but I'm leading the team who can draw. I know how the process on drawing.
** I'm was being in the same situation like TS before, I was like

" WTF! Like this also can charge Rm 8k for 6 sheet of 3D views,no details how to do o ?, if you want see 3D only . Come find me next time, 1 view I charge rm 500 only. "

I wasn't offending anyone. I was explaining to them. How can you possible giving BQ to anyone witout knowing what sorts of material, designs and brandings they are after? A kitchen cabinet top can be RM400 p/ft run and it can be RM900 p/ft run, it all depends on material and designs. A whole kitchen cost RM22k but what he has in mind Is totally different and it will cost him RM50K. Why tell him lies and false infoemation ? I hope you get my point across. I'm sorry if he felt offended but is the fact.

Agree,

It just like a person go to buy leather bag. It depends on which shop he fall in, Louis Vuxtton or Jalan Petaling Baxgla ...

Both are leather bag, both are usable as bag.Both does bring the same function .

BUT. IT IS DIFFER ALOT WHEN COME TO PRICING. FROM THOUSANDS TO HUNDREDS GAP.!!


I still Believe , Every product or services their existence will have their own value.

Wow... will you offend your potential client by posting this?

I think most of us are quite a noob in terms of the job scope of ID. Every ID quote different job scope. Thats is why in my previous thread I asked for the list of job scope. Unfortunately, no one really list it down for me.

I don't think every single ID able to do a proper BQ, cause it is normally a QS job.

Continuing the leather bag analogy,

You buy an LV because you know it's going to last. Granted, it's a luxury brand and therefore a status item and branding is part of the reason why it costs a lot. Still, you know you can trust this brand because it cannot afford to tarnish the image and quality of its products. Quality control in a brand such as LV (or any other luxury brand) is held to the highest standard. This is also an investment because you can still re-sell your luxury item as a secondhand designer bag. Some bags even appreciate in value because they are increasingly very rare in numbers (limited edition, exotic skins, unique craftsmanship, etc).

Value is relative to the needs and wants of the client. You want something that will last, and/or you're going for a look that screams "brand new, showroom, etc", you should be willing to pay more for it (of course, how much more also depends on your budget). Don't always necessarily go for the cheapest option. Go for the best value-for-money with proven quality. smile.gif
