At the early stages of a construction project, decisions are often made before detailed drawings are available. Without a clear preliminary budget, projects can face redesigns, funding issues, or scope changes later. How do professionals manage cost planning with limited information?

Many teams use preliminary estimating services in USA to develop early cost models and feasibility budgets based on conceptual plans. These estimates help guide design development and reduce financial risk as the project progresses.

Id be interested to know how others approach preliminary estimating and whether early cost planning has improved their project outcomes.
