The project

Polytechnique Montréal – J.-Armand-Bombardier Pavilion Expansion

Part of Polytechnique Montréal’s major program to expand and modernize its facilities on the Mount Royal campus, the project requires tight coordination of trades on an active university campus.

Our mandate

  • Review of plans, specifications and addenda
  • Quantity takeoff of the estimated divisions
  • Price requests to suppliers and subcontractors
  • Estimate for bid submission

Estimating challenges

Estimating a university building: what makes the difference.

University projects often combine expansion, renovation and work in occupied buildings. Classrooms, laboratories and research spaces stay in use during construction, which directly affects phasing, working hours and the temporary protection that must be priced.

Institutional specifications are demanding: specified materials, energy performance targets, commissioning and close-out documentation. A reliable estimate captures these requirements while reading the specifications, not after bid closing.

For this type of project, Gestion Edem delivers an estimate organized by division, with quantities, unit prices, assumptions and exclusions clearly stated. You know what the price includes, where each amount comes from and where the risks lie.

Items to watch

  • Phasing in occupied buildings and temporary protection
  • Tie-ins to existing buildings and selective demolition
  • Laboratories and technical rooms with dense services
  • Commissioning, testing and documentation requirements
  • Academic calendar and restricted work windows
