The basics of pricing construction engineering services
Preparing and proposing pricing bases for engineering services is one of the important tasks in the field of urban construction, which is still neglected after about 25 years of the promulgation of the Law on Engineering and Building Control, and every year only within the framework of Article 17, Chapter 5, Topic 2 of the National Regulations. A small percentage of the building is added to the construction cost base per square meter (Table 10, topic 2).
A subject that we witnessed in 2019; Notification of Table No. 10 at the beginning of the year by the Central Council, whose construction costs were far from the reality of the society!
In addition to the 25% increase stipulated in paragraph 17-3 of topic 2, the Board of Directors of the Construction Engineering System of Tehran province this year approved another 25% increase according to paragraph 17-6 of the same topic and sent it to the 5-member board of the province, which despite the current severe inflationary conditions and the long distance Basing the tariff of engineering services on reality, this board, taking into consideration only considerations, agreed with an increase of 10 to 25% of the service tariff in clause 17-3, which has faced serious objections from the members of the organization, and some members of the board of directors of the organization have also requested an appeal from They have the said board.
But on the other hand, based on Article 2 Clause 8 and Article 15 Clause 15 of the Law on Engineering and Building Control System, the Provincial Organization has been designated as the authority for preparing and regulating the pricing bases for engineering services and proposing it to the Ministry of Roads and Urban Development for approval.
Also, based on Article 117 of the Executive Regulations of the Engineering and Building Control System Law, the Ministry of Roads and Urban Development, in order to create unity of action and prevent conflicts in the preparation and regulation of pricing bases for engineering services, is obliged to consider the aforementioned bases according to the proposals received from the organizations of the system. Construction engineering of the province and the technical council of the provinces and prepare them with their opinions, and the price lists of engineering services are announced for public information after the approval of the minister of road and urban development.
It should be noted that the contract for compiling these principles was concluded in July 2018 and the initial draft of these principles has already been prepared, although it needs to be amended and the procedures for obtaining the approval of the review and approval council for the principles of engineering services pricing (the subject of Note 1, Article 117 of the Executive Regulations of the Law) and also obtain the approval of the Central Council.
It seems that the basic solution to end the problems caused by the increase in the engineering services tariff, which repeats every year and causes protests by the members of the organization, is to determine the basis of the pricing of engineering services.
With the follow-ups, a meeting was recently held in order to review the problems of the consultant and the remaining steps to obtain the necessary approvals in the Central Council of the Construction Engineering System, see the link below:
