A regionally-calibrated construction cost range in about 30 seconds — before the first call, the first meeting, or the first contractor. Pick the version built for your work.
A public project starts as an idea — a new fire station, a school's failing HVAC, a water main that can't wait. But the moment you call an architect or a contractor to ask "what does this cost?", you're in their process — and they're sizing up your budget before you've asked a single question.
Search online and you'll find national averages from years ago that mean nothing for your community, your project, your market. The one question that should come first — is this actually feasible? — has never had a good answer.
CivicScope changes the starting point: a regionally-calibrated cost range in about 30 seconds, before the first call, before the first meeting, while the decision is still yours.
