This paper mainly discusses the work that should be done in the project completion settlement stage, the problems encountered by the construction unit in the completion settlement and the measures to deal with these problems. After the completion of the project, how to prepare the completion settlement can control the project cost in the settlement stage.

Keywords: completion settlement;

The benefit of the project is the whole process management from bidding and winning the bid to construction, completion and delivery, and the quality of project completion settlement plays a key role in determining the benefit result of the whole project. Project settlement is the main basis for determining the project cost reasonably and accurately. So how to control the project cost and make profits for the enterprise through effective means? This requires detailed and detailed completion settlement and related materials in accordance with the specifications in the project construction. I think we should do the following:

1, be familiar with and understand the contract documents.

First of all, we should carefully read and be familiar with the contract documents and related contract terms, especially pay attention to find out whether the price of materials during construction can be adjusted in the contract terms, the scope and method of material adjustment, the procedure of engineering change notice (signing) and the method of engineering change measurement, as well as the relevant incentive expenses stipulated in the contract, such as preliminary work bonus, measure fee, quality bonus, return and cash method of risk management fund, etc.

Familiarity and understanding of contract terms can not only improve personal working ability, but also reduce and avoid measurement errors, improve contract performance rate and improve project capital utilization rate.

2. Collect and accumulate relevant information.

A complete and rich completion data can not only ensure the completeness and accuracy of settlement preparation, but also avoid too many problems in the audit process and ensure the smooth progress of settlement audit. These materials mainly include: project contract, drawings and records of joint review of drawings, tender offer, change notice, project shutdown report, construction organization design, construction records, documents and regulations for quota and cost adjustment, etc. The accumulation and collection of data must pay attention to its timeliness. For example, the visa of the site supervisor must be signed by the person in charge of the site of Party A and approved by the designer.

3. Pay attention to data negotiation and change.

In the process of construction, the person in charge of the construction unit must contact the designer to change or supplement the structural practices. For example, the construction unit can't carry out the reinforcement project without authorization according to the previous construction experience, otherwise it will be difficult to convince Party A that the construction is correct in the later period. Because only the structural designer of the project has the most power to change the design content of the project, anyone except the structural designer only gives some suggestive references, which cannot be used as the basis for the settlement of the number of steel bars in the project, otherwise the money will not be returned after the work.

In the measurement and change declaration, the calculation of engineering quantity must be accurate, whether it is the engineering quantity of construction drawings or the engineering quantity of changes outside the contract. Before the project starts, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive review of the construction drawings, raise the difference between the construction drawing quantities and the contract quantities to the owner in time, and adjust the contract bill quantities in time, so as to facilitate the smooth measurement work in the future.

This paper calculates the related engineering quantities such as engineering contact list and change list, and summarizes that when calculating engineering quantities, we must master the calculation rules of engineering quantities, carefully check the construction drawings, design change records, concealed engineering records and other materials, and pay special attention to avoid common problems such as over-calculation, recalculation, decimal point error and quota set error. Then, when setting the quota, when the engineering quantity cannot be directly set as the budget quota, and it needs to be converted, it is necessary to list the conversion calculation formula, which is clear to people, convenient for the owner to review in the future, and also enhances the integrity of our construction enterprise in the eyes of the other party, which is beneficial to the business development of our construction enterprise.

Therefore, timely and accurate handling of engineering changes will have an impact on the quality, time limit, progress and project cost of the whole project, and timely handling of engineering visas and engineering changes will also be conducive to the smooth completion and settlement of the project and maximize profits for enterprises.

4. Pay attention to the claim.

Claim is an important content in completion settlement. Claim is the act of demanding compensation from the other party when one party fails to perform its obligations under the contract and suffers losses. In project contracting, the claim usually refers to the claim of the construction unit, that is, in the construction process, the contractor pays extra expenses or causes losses due to the owner or other factors, and the contractor demands compensation from the owner through legal channels and procedures such as negotiation, litigation or arbitration.

5. Strengthen the settlement inspection.

After the construction enterprise completes the settlement, it shall be submitted to Party A for review and then checked by both parties. Project settlement directly determines the size of the project cost, and settlement audit is also a work with strong sense of responsibility. Every tick in the settlement is closely related to the total project cost.

General project settlement is divided into three parts: checking engineering quantity, checking quota subtitle and checking project cost. In the process of inspection, if there is any unclear part, please ask the site representative to explain it, or personally go to the site to measure and inspect it. If the two sides have disputes or questions about quotas, they can ask the relevant provincial and municipal quota management departments for unified answers. If there are differences between the two parties, they will be reinspected on the spot and settled according to the principle of "who handles who". The following aspects should be paid attention to when checking: first, check whether the quantities reported in the project settlement are consistent with the actually completed quantities; The second is to check whether there is false settlement; The third is to check whether there is any double calculation of engineering quantity. After checking the settlement of the project, it is found that there are over-estimated and over-quota subheads, which should be reduced according to the inspection results; For the underestimated and omitted parts, we should also increase them realistically.

6. The settlement personnel must go deep into the site and fully grasp the actual situation of the project. In the stage of engineering quantity calculation, it is necessary to go deep into the site to check the records, so that the calculation can be accurate. Experienced cost personnel often check all the information and change the visa before preparing the settlement. The on-site visa must be signed by the construction unit, supervision unit and construction unit for confirmation. Concealed engineering visa is one of the reasons that affect the project cost. The owner's on-site management personnel must have a high sense of responsibility and carefully and responsibly close the visa. If the on-site visa work is not in place, it will seriously affect the completion settlement. For example, after the project starts, problems such as concealed works such as earthwork, design changes, technical measures and material substitution will be encountered. Especially for concealed engineering visas, it is best to check clearly before concealment to avoid wrangling afterwards. This requires us to know as much as possible, first roughly calculate the engineering quantity, and then check it at the construction site when problems are found. An excellent cost personnel should not only go deep into the construction site to grasp the actual situation, but also go deep into the market to understand the varieties and specifications of building materials to avoid errors in the calculation of engineering quantities.

7, the preparation of completion settlement should pay attention to the problem:

(1) Completion settlement must be based on sufficient and complete basic data; Including design drawings, design change procedures, on-site visa forms, price confirmations, meeting minutes, acceptance reports and acceptance sheets, other construction materials, original construction drawing budget and quotation, list of materials and equipment provided by Party A, etc. , to ensure that the completion settlement is based on facts, to prevent going through the motions or fictional facts.

(2) The personnel who prepare the completion settlement must be fully familiar with the completion drawing before settlement, correctly determine the partial quantities and project prices, and avoid the disconnection between the completion settlement and the site, affecting the settlement quality and being divorced from reality.

(3) When preparing the completion settlement, try not to omit or over-calculate, and calculate the engineering quantity accurately; When making quota or list, avoid duplication, omission or misreporting of unit price and unreasonable pricing, which will affect the project settlement.

(4) The completion settlement data is in the correct order, and the format is concise and clear, which makes people clear at a glance.

5] When preparing the completion settlement report, the settlement scope, basis, basic content and quantity of information provided should be made clear, and the unclear facts should be explained. The completed settlement book should fully reflect the basic situation of the project, including the original contract price list of each unit's project, all the increase and decrease lists, and summarize and make the completion settlement table.

In a word, completion settlement is the last step of project cost control, and as a famous cost personnel, it should be strictly controlled. This is a meticulous work, binding and coding all kinds of collected data, carefully calculating, without omission. According to the reality, we should obey the truth and maintain good professional ethics and our own reputation. At the same time, we should keep learning and enrich our knowledge. On the above basis, ensure the preparation and cooperation of "quantity" and "price", do a good job in project settlement, and ensure the quality of completion settlement.
