How to control the cost of materials in construction projects

How to control material costs:

1. For the materials of the project department itself, the amount of materials calculated by the project department should be the main, and the amount of materials should be issued to the construction team, and the amount of materials provided on the bill of quantities should be used as a reference to determine the amount of materials used in each sub-project.

2. The warehouse keeper should be strict with the procedures and procedures for sending and receiving materials, and carefully inspect. According to the determined amount of materials for each sub-project, the quota is issued to avoid the waste of materials. Procedure:

The progress of the site is determined by the constructor, and the sub-project is expected to be completed next week (the cycle can be determined by the project department); The budgeter determines the weekly workload according to the progress confirmed by the constructor or on-site tracking, and issues the material consumption plan; The warehouse keeper shall issue materials according to the consumption plan, and shall not exceed the planned material issuance, and the excess material needs a reasonable reason to add the material plan; Fill in the material issuance list, the issuer and the receiving team sign to confirm, the issuing list to take a triple sheet, the issuer to keep a copy, the receiving team a copy, the data clerk to prepare a file, for the budget staff and other inquiries.

3. For materials that are not easy to be divided into a single item, they should be audited at least once a month according to the progress of the project, and if the actual consumption exceeds the amount calculated by the project department, find out the reasons in time and strengthen control.

4. The warehouse manager of the project department should also pay close attention to the market trend of materials, report to the project manager in a timely manner, and the project manager will cooperate with the company to seize the favorable opportunity to sign the procurement contract, which is mainly for the commonly used and fast-changing materials, and these materials are based on the market information price during the audit, and the amount is also very large, so special attention should be paid to.

5. If the auxiliary materials are contracted to the construction team, the material staff is responsible for checking the quality of the team's feeding.

The material cost is one of the main items that constitute the project cost, accounting for about 60% and 70% of the entire project cost in the project cost, and the profit and loss of the material cost directly affects the profit and loss of the entire project. Due to the characteristics of the building products themselves and various factors such as the market, the variety of materials required for the project is diversified, the channels are diversified, except for the bulk materials according to the contract by the construction unit according to the budget, the rest of the materials need to be purchased by the construction order, and the construction site of the hydropower project is far away from the city, the irregularity of the bidding and bidding market and the lag of the budget quota lead to the complexity of material cost management. Some project departments do not strictly implement the material collection and material system, and the theft is serious; Some materials and materials are excessively consumed, serious waste, and excessive wear and tear of machinery and equipment; Some of the blanking calculations are inaccurate, and the loss rate exceeds the standard.

Strengthening material management is an important part of project cost control, and if material management is neglected, project cost management is impossible. Therefore, under the premise of ensuring the quality of the project, the reasonable and economical use of various materials and the control of material costs are of great practical significance for reducing the occupation of working capital and reducing the cost of the project. The control here refers to the whole staff, the whole process, all-round control, rather than blindly mechanically implementing the pipe, card, pressure, relatively speaking, the control of the cost is greater than other economic elements of the initiative, its most direct result can reduce costs, so in the core position of economic management, and the control of material costs is the focus of the focus.

Kiss! Hello, happy to answer your <>

The unit price of pro-material is generally composed of the original price of the material (or ****), material transportation and miscellaneous expenses, transportation loss costs, procurement and storage fees. 1. The original price of materials (or ****) The original price of materials refers to the factory ** of domestic purchased materials, and the ** formed after the foreign purchased materials arrive at the buyer's border, port or station and pay various handling fees and taxes. If the material is tax included, the original price of the material shall be deducted from the input VAT at the applicable tax rate (17% or 11%) or levy rate (3%) applicable to the purchased goods.

2. Material transportation and miscellaneous expensesMaterial transportation and miscellaneous expenses refer to the costs incurred in the transportation of domestic procurement materials from the first place and foreign procurement materials from the port of arrival to the construction site warehouse or designated stacking location. If the shipping cost is tax-included**, it needs to be adjusted according to the two payment methods of "two-invoice system" and "one-invoice system" respectively. (1) "Two-invoice system" payment method.

The so-called "two-invoice system" materials refer to the materials that the material supplier provides two invoices for the sale of goods and transportation to the construction enterprise respectively for the sales price of the goods and the transportation and miscellaneous expenses collected. Under this approach, freight and miscellaneous charges are subject to the applicable tax rate of 11% for transportation and services minus input VAT less. (2) "One-ticket system" payment method.

Therefore, the "one-invoice system" materials refer to the materials that only one invoice for the sale of goods is provided to the construction enterprise by the material supplier for the total amount of the sales price of the goods and the transportation and miscellaneous expenses collected. In this way, the input VAT is deducted from the freight and miscellaneous charges in the same way as the original price of the material. Hope mine can help you <>

The material cost refers to the cost of raw materials, auxiliary materials, components, parts, and semi-finished products that constitute the engineering entity consumed in the construction process.

These include: the original price of materials, material transportation and miscellaneous costs, transportation loss costs, procurement and storage fees, and material packaging costs.

1) Procurement of materials in the best way and efforts to reduce procurement costs;

2) Determine the material specifications according to the actual construction situation;

3) Rational use of turnover materials;

4) Reasonably design the layout of the construction site.

4) Reasonably design the layout of the construction site.

For example, determine what materials you want to purchase, you can purchase when the material is low, and wait until you want to use it when you take it out, so as to reduce the cost of materials, for some of the materials that can be reused and reused, reduce the number of such materials according to the reasonable construction organization design, and control the quality of materials to reduce the loss caused by unqualified materials.
