Proposal software for construction consulting firms
For owner's representatives, cost consultants, construction managers as agent and project management consultants: fees by project phase, as a percentage of construction cost or as a monthly fee over the construction period, with internal approval before the client sees them.
Who this is for
- Owner's representatives and project management consultants
- Cost consultants and quantity surveyors
- Construction managers acting as agent
- Scheduling, claims and commissioning consultants
How these firms price work
Construction consulting fees follow the project. Pre-construction is often a fixed fee or a percentage, the construction period is often a monthly fee tied to the schedule, and specialist services are hourly. Feebeaver holds each as a fee structure so the table computes from the construction cost and the duration.
Percentage of construction cost fee structures are included on the Firm plan.
| Item | Basis | Fee |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-construction services | Fixed fee | $38,000 |
| Construction phase, owner's representation | Monthly fee, 18 months | $9,500 per month |
| Cost estimating, two milestones | Fixed fee per milestone | $16,000 |
| Change order review | Hourly, not to exceed | $12,000 |
| Closeout and commissioning oversight | Fixed fee | $8,500 |
Sample figures. In Feebeaver each row is computed from a fee structure in your library, so the basis, rates and caps are set once by a principal and applied on every proposal.

Compared with general proposal tools
PandaDoc and Proposify both list construction as a market. Their construction content is aimed at contractors quoting materials and labor. A consultant pricing a monthly fee over an 18-month construction period, or a percentage of construction cost, needs different fee logic.
- Fee logic built for services pricing, not a quantity times price table
- Approval rules on every plan; approvers never need a paid seat
- Editor, client view and PDF share one render path
- No send limits on either plan
Pricing for construction consulting
Professional is $29 and Firm is $49 per creator per month billed annually. Approvers are free, so partners and principals who review proposals do not need a seat. Approval rules are included on both plans. 14-day free trial, no card.
Construction consulting questions
Can we price the construction phase as a monthly fee?
Yes. Recurring fee structures with a stated term appear as a row with the monthly amount and the number of months.
Is Feebeaver for general contractors?
No. Feebeaver is for the consultants who advise owners, not for contractors quoting materials and labor. Contractors are better served by estimating software.
Can we price as a percentage of construction cost?
Yes. Percentage of construction cost fee structures are included on the Firm plan.
Can a principal review before sending?
Yes. Approval rules route the proposal to the review queue, and the approval is recorded. Approvers are free.
Do public owners need a specific format?
Many do. Keep each format as a template and page set, so a response to a public owner starts from the right layout.
