The construction industry is ranked as the 2^nd most likely for companies going bankrupt. Therefore, generating a return on all projects is critical to a construction company’s sustainability. Survey services are critical anchoring services to every construction project. Surveying impacts every phase of all projects. Therefore, the importance to evaluate your surveyor company properly is one of the most important decisions a construction company can make in improving the probability of success on any project.

Unfortunately, standard practice is the lowest bid method to hire a professional surveyor. Usually the only consideration is price and very little or no value is attributed to the knowledge, experience, professionalism, reliability and accuracy capabilities of the organization being hired. Limiting the decision-making factors to only price increases the risk significantly in choosing a sub-optimal survey company. All construction companies have experienced the impact of having the wrong survey company on a project. The havoc caused on the profitability of a project by a survey gone wrong can be catastrophic.

To properly review and assess your survey company and make them a long-term partner choice you should consider the following:

• Professional staff with the proper experience both in the field and office
• Scalability to meet the challenges that may arise on a job-site
