A bill of quantities,
priced against live benchmarks.
Not last quarter's rates.

BOQ reads your bill of quantities and cross-references it against live, directive-driven pricing benchmarks, flagging where costs exceed benchmark before the order goes out — not after the margin's already gone.

How It Works

Pricing that doesn't go stale between quotes.

A rate card from last quarter is already out of date. BOQ prices against what's current.

01

Parse the bill of quantities

Line items, quantities and specifications are read directly from your BOQ upload — no manual re-entry.

BOQ parsing
02

Price against live benchmarks

Each line is priced against current benchmark data, driven by live directives, not a fixed rate card.

03

Flag the overpayment

Anything priced above benchmark is flagged with the evidence behind the flag, before the order is placed.

Overpayment flagging

Who BOQ is built for.

The margin is lost at the pricing stage, not the delivery stage.

"By the time a job is delivered, the pricing mistake is already baked in. BOQ catches it before the quote is even sent."

Live Benchmark pricing updated continuously, not quarterly

"A flagged line item with the benchmark evidence attached is something you can renegotiate immediately."

Evidenced Every flag carries the benchmark data behind it

Questions about BOQ

What is BOQ?

BOQ is the bill-of-quantities pricing agent inside SME Growth Team. It reads a bill of quantities, cross-references live pricing benchmarks, and flags where costs exceed benchmark before an order is placed.

Can I try BOQ without signing up?

Yes. BOQ's pricing engine is available as a free standalone tool, the BOQ Pricer, at smegrowthteam.com/tools/boq-pricer.html.

BOQ prices the requirements; PERCY sources and verifies the suppliers who can fulfil them. Together they turn a bill of quantities into a ranked, priced supplier comparison.
