The accuracy of estimates in building construction is influenced by several critical factors that can either increase or decrease the reliability of the cost and resource predictions made during the planning and construction phases. One of the primary factors is the availability and reliability of project information. Incomplete, outdated, or inaccurate information regarding design plans, material specifications, or site conditions can lead to significant discrepancies in cost estimates. If the project scope or design changes during construction, this can also result in cost overrun or miscalculations. Another key factor is the level of detail provided in the estimate. Detailed estimates that break down costs into smaller components are more likely to be accurate compared to broad, generalized estimates. Estimating at a granular level allows for a better understanding of specific material costs, labor requirements, and construction methods, helping to minimize errors. In contrast, high-level estimates may overlook variables or unforeseen challenges that arise during the project, leading to inaccuracies. The experience and skill of the estimator is also a
