QCons is an independent cost and commercial consultancy founded by Chartered Surveyors, based in Sri Lanka and working with clients across the Gulf region and international markets. We work with developers, contractors and investors on building and fit-out projects, helping them understand what a project will genuinely cost before capital is committed and before problems surface on site.

Our team is built on chartered quantity surveyors backed by 20 years of experience in the Gulf and 25 years internationally — real construction and commercial experience, not theory considered from behind a desk. The figures we provide clients are grounded in how projects are actually tendered, priced and built, which is why our advice continues to hold up where it matters: in negotiations, on site, and at final account.

We remain involved through the entire life of a project — early cost planning, tender documentation, procurement support, contract administration, variations, monthly reporting, and through to final account and close-out. Nothing is handed off midway for someone else to resolve. On some engagements we manage one clearly defined package; on others we take on the full commercial side of a project from feasibility through to completion. Either way, clients treat us as part of their own team, because that is genuinely how we work with them.

Our Direction

Mission & Vision

Our Mission

To cut down uncertainty, protect the value of every project, and give clients what they need to make informed decisions and move forward with confidence at each commercial milestone.

Our Vision

To become one of the leading cost and commercial consultancies serving Sri Lanka and the Gulf region, recognised for professionalism, technical excellence and long-term client partnerships.

Our Approach

Clear scope, reliable quantities, rates that hold up to scrutiny. We make commercial decisions on time, backed by careful measurement and honest reporting at every stage.

Positioning

QCons operates as a seamless extension of the client, project management, or main contractor's commercial team — flexible enough for one defined package, structured enough to run full project cost consultancy from concept to close-out.

What Guides Us

Principles behind every report

The standards that shape how we measure, report and communicate on every engagement.

Accuracy & Rigour

Every take-off, valuation and final account is checked against the drawings, the contract and the numbers — not assumptions.

Transparency

Clients see how a figure was built, not just the total. Defensible cost data is the foundation of trust.

Responsiveness

Tender deadlines and payment cycles do not wait. Our turnaround is built around your programme, not ours.

Partnership

We work as an extension of your team, not a detached third party — invested in the outcome of your project.
