Confirm the schedule purpose
Read the bid form and contract instructions before pricing. Separate estimated bid quantities from post-award measurement rules.
Identify whether each price is additive, deductive, or both. For construction unit price schedule review, use this related guide as context while keeping the current project documents in control.
Define every measured unit
Write the unit exactly as the project documents define it. State the work, materials, labor, equipment, and incidental items included. Keep unlike conditions in separate rows instead of blending them.
Build the price basis
Tie each unit price to the current takeoff and document revision. Show taxes, freight, bonds, and markup according to the bid rules.
Record quote or production evidence behind significant rates. When reviewing construction unit price schedule review, consult AACE International for cost-engineering context, then apply it through the contractor’s own standards.

Test adjustment conditions
Check minimum charges, mobilization effects, and small-quantity inefficiency. Identify any time, location, or quantity limits stated in the documents. Avoid adding qualifications that conflict with the required form.
Release a controlled schedule
Recalculate sample extensions using the stated unit and quantity. Compare the schedule with base bid scope to prevent double counting.
Freeze the reviewed schedule with its estimate version and approver. For recurring construction unit price schedule review records, an estimating support role can maintain inputs while final approval stays with the contractor.
