Professional introduction
According to the national standard "Terminology Standard of Project Cost" issued by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, project cost refers to the construction cost that constitutes the estimated or actual expenditure of the project during the construction period.
The process of forecasting, planning, controlling, accounting, analyzing and evaluating the project cost by comprehensively applying the knowledge and skills of management, economics and engineering technology is called project cost management. According to the procedures, methods and basis stipulated by laws, regulations and standards, the prediction or determination of project cost and its components is called project valuation. The basis of project valuation includes project measurement valuation standard, project valuation quota and project cost information related to valuation content, valuation method and price standard.
job requirement
College degree or above in civil engineering, civil engineering, construction economic management, engineering cost, construction engineering and budget is required. A qualified project budgeter needs to know the general construction procedures, construction methods, project quality and safety standards; Familiar with the basic knowledge of architectural drawing, building structure and building structure, familiar with commonly used building materials, components, products and commonly used mechanical equipment; Familiar with quota composition, labor cost, material budget price, mechanical shift fee and charging standard; Familiar with the calculation rules of engineering quantity and master the calculation skills; Understand the laws and regulations of construction economy, be familiar with the terms of project contract, and be able to participate in bidding, tendering and contract negotiation; Have some basic knowledge of computer application, and be able to use computers to prepare construction budget; Able to independently complete project budget estimate, estimation, budget and settlement. In addition, you also need to have good communication skills, coordination skills and work execution skills.
The compilation of construction project budget is a hard and meticulous work, which requires our professional workers to have excellent basic skills, good professional ethics, pragmatic style and diligent spirit. While fully familiar with the connotation, working procedure, subtitle content, engineering quantity calculation rules and scale, go deep into the first line of the construction project and start from scratch (feasibility study, preliminary design, construction drawing design, engineering construction), collect information, accumulate knowledge and set about compiling.
evaluation function
Project cost is one of the main bases for evaluating the rationality and investment benefit of total investment and sub-investment. When evaluating the rationality of land price, construction and installation products and equipment prices, it is necessary to use project cost data, and when evaluating the repayment ability, profitability and macro-benefit of construction projects, it can also be based on project cost. Engineering cost is also an important basis for evaluating the management level and operating results of construction and installation enterprises.
regulatory function
The macro-control of the construction scale and structure by the state is essential under any circumstances, as well as the direct control and management of government investment projects. All these should use the economic lever of project cost to regulate and manage the material consumption level, construction scale and investment direction in project construction.
Project cost belongs to the category of management in the specialty, which is a popular category according to the related economic and social development, and mainly manages construction projects. Construction engineering, economy, civil engineering, etc., whether in practice or theory, the project cost basically needs to have the corresponding management ability.
Predictive function
Investors and builders should evaluate the proposed project in advance. The investor's estimate of the project cost can be used not only as the basis for project decision-making, but also as the basis for raising funds and controlling costs. The contractor's project cost budget not only provides a basis for bidding decision, but also provides a basis for bidding quotation and cost management.
control function
The control function of project cost is manifested in two aspects: on the one hand, it is to control investment, that is, to control the cost at different levels in the whole process according to the repeated budget and evaluation of the cost in each stage of investment; On the other hand, it is the cost control of goods and services suppliers represented by contractors.
Training objectives
This major cultivates all-round development of morality, intelligence, physique and beauty, has a solid theoretical foundation of higher education culture, adapts to the needs of China's and local regional economic construction and development, has basic knowledge of management, economics and civil engineering technology, grasps the theories, methods and means of modern engineering cost management science, obtains basic training for cost engineers and consulting (investment) engineers, and has the ability of investment decision-making of engineering construction projects and engineering cost management at all stages in the whole process, and has practical ability and innovative spirit.
Employment direction
After graduation, students can engage in project cost bidding agency, investment and financing of construction projects and investment control, project cost determination and control, bidding and quotation decision-making, contract management, project budget and final accounts, and projects in engineering consulting companies, construction enterprises (Party B), building decoration engineering companies, engineering construction supervision companies, real estate development enterprises, design institutes, accounting and auditing firms, and infrastructure departments of government institutions (Party A). Graduates of this major are mainly engaged in construction engineering budget and settlement, engineering audit, bidding and quotation in construction enterprises, engineering cost consulting institutions, bidding consulting institutions, construction units, engineering supervision, engineering cost departments and other related units.
