JSC "Research Center "Construction" conducts a technological and price audit (TPA) of projects, including the Center is authorized to conduct a public technological and price audit of large investment projects with state participation.

A technological audit makes it possible to exercise effective control over construction from both a technical and financial point of view. SRC "Construction" carries out such work upon sale, after the end of the next stage of construction or when the object is transferred to another contractor and in other cases.

Technology audit makes it possible to control the quality, volume, and cost of work actually performed. Based on its results, a technical and legal opinion is issued on the validity of the costs incurred, the quality control and management system is checked, and the technical and technological solutions used are assessed. The condition of construction equipment is also checked, buildings and structures, structures, utilities, engineering systems and networks are inspected.


An important stage of the audit is checking the design and technical documentation. The company’s specialists make an expert opinion on the validity of the design solutions used and the compliance of technical documents with the provisions of regulations in the field of construction safety.

Conclusions on all stages of the technological audit, including analysis of documentation, examination of the facility, quality control of work, assessment of compliance with the declared cost, are included in the expert opinion.

Advantages of performing a technological and price audit of construction at the Research Center “Construction”

Experience with existing regulatory and technical rules in the construction industry, the use of original methods and the unique scientific experience of specialists allows us to achieve all the goals of a technological and price audit extremely competently and promptly. Multi-stage control makes it possible to provide high quality services.

Advantages of cooperation with Research Center Construction:

  • the use of modern methods allows examinations to be carried out with minimal loss of time;
  • focus on results increases staff motivation and service quality;
  • the high intellectual level of the staff contributes to maximizing the quality of construction audits.

You can order a price and technology audit by contacting the representative office of the Research Center Construction.

Construction price audit activities include work to determine the cost of construction and installation work performed and compare actual and design estimates. In addition, permitting documentation is analyzed. A price audit is necessary for customers who want to be sure of the feasibility of construction in economic and technical terms.

This type of verification is a rather labor-intensive and complex process. In addition to direct examination of the property, the audit includes establishing the obligations of investors and developers and analyzing contractual relations. When conducting a price audit of construction in Moscow and regions of Russia, the customer of the work must provide a full package of documentation: estimates, geodetic and engineering surveys, design, design features, etc.

Main stages of construction price audit

JSC “SRC “Construction” performs the following work during the inspection of the facility:

  • determining the quality, volume and cost of construction work performed;
  • identifying the market value of the object under study based on its actual technical condition;
  • checking the volume, cost and quality of work performed that was not included in the estimate documentation;
  • setting deadlines for completion of construction;
  • conducting a comparative analysis of completed work with design values. During the construction price audit, the compliance of prices for materials, equipment, and technologies with the declared data in the project is checked;
  • study of permitting documentation, analysis of the agreement between investors and the construction organization;
  • careful study of the estimate documentation to determine the validity of the construction amount;
  • calculation of the actual cost of construction taking into account detected defects.

At the customer's request, additional sections may be included in the construction price audit.

An audit of investment projects allows you to control investments already at the planning stage. With a correct approach to the issue, you can foresee possible mistakes in advance and take measures to avoid them. Technological and price audit of investment projects is a means of assessing the planned plan even before the start of its implementation.

Important Features

If an audit is planned, pay attention to:

  • Alternative projects in which you can invest. Compare them with the chosen one and analyze what the strengths and weaknesses of each option are. Based on the data obtained, a final decision can be made.
  • Management decisions, having previously provided a rigid basis for them that cannot be challenged. It is important that key indicators that are significant for any enterprise are involved, that is, wages, efficiency from an economic point of view, and the social component.
  • An audit of investment and construction projects, as well as in other areas, necessarily implies a well-founded approach to identifying the risks that accompany the implementation of an idea.
  • Adjusting the income component and expenses in such a way as to avoid risky situations.

Technological and price audit of investment projects allows you to obtain a report on the basis of which an entrepreneur can make the correct decision in the field of organization management. It is on the basis of a detailed analysis of the situation that one can determine whether a particular project is attractive for investment.

The most relevant

Public technological and price audit of investment projects is most relevant in the field of construction. In this area, over the past few years there has been an increase in the volume of investments from the state, which has increased the requirements for control methods. Recent changes in economics and business practices have shown that it is necessary to work on new methods for assessing and regulating the effectiveness of investing money in certain ideas.

In response to this need, enterprising people were quickly able to create audit techniques that made it possible to systematically study investment objects and evaluate them comprehensively, taking into account all significant factors. Nowadays, those results that are shown by independent examinations are most highly valued. In this case, the following components are assessed:

  • economic;
  • technological;
  • technical.

Although at first the technological price audit of large investment projects was developed as the most effective option in relation to the construction field, over time it became relevant for other areas in which it is profitable to invest money.

Specifics of the assessment

The investment project audit program assumes that independent experts from various fields work on the assessment and consider all stages of the object’s life cycle. In order to get the correct result, it is most reasonable to contact an independent company with a good rating and a high level of trust. This will help optimize solutions in terms of the technologies used and project features, as well as increase the efficiency of investment.

A high-quality and accurate price audit of investment projects allows us to reduce the cost of implementing a project while reducing the duration of its implementation. With the right approach and taking into account all significant factors, the work process will be environmentally friendly and efficient in terms of energy consumption when it comes to construction.

Control and support

The state has not ignored all the opportunities provided by the public audit of investment projects. In recent years, it has provided certain preferences to those who are ready to pay attention to such opportunities. A plan was put in place for the period from 2013 to 2018, aimed at ensuring that large projects in which it is profitable to invest money undergo audit measures.

Goals and opportunities

Conducting a technological audit of an investment project makes it possible to assess how correctly the solutions were chosen:

  • constructive;
  • technological.

It is also necessary to evaluate whether the applicable methodologies and technologies correspond to the level of development. If we are talking about a construction site, experts pay attention to the technical means and building materials used, analyze what technologies are used in the construction of the facility, whether innovative developments are taken into account, and whether advanced techniques are introduced. They check whether the construction site complies with standards and production requirements. In total, this will allow us to draw conclusions about how effectively the budget money invested in the project is spent. In addition, the audit of investment projects makes it possible to increase the competitiveness of a particular facility.

Price audit as a path to success

Why is an investment project audit carried out? An example is this: before the property was assessed, the cost of the property was quite high, which caused a lot of controversy among potential investors who believed that these were unjustified, inflated figures. This, in turn, limited the flow of funds and suspended the implementation of the idea. Carrying out audit activities allows us to identify shortcomings and miscalculations in determining the cost, due to which the price tag is noticeably reduced. Since the result of the analysis is necessarily documented and confirmed by highly qualified experts, this allows you to trust the object. This means that more investors will be able to accept the opportunity and invest money in it, and the influx of finance will speed up the translation of the idea into reality.

Price audit today is the most effective method for improving the return on investment. This is equally true for large federal facilities and individual construction sites.

Subject of audit

The audit of investment projects is carried out in the context of the following aspects:

  • Assessment of decision-making in favor of one method or another (this concerns the design features of the project and its technologies, engineering and technical aspects and architectural models). This also takes into account how large the future costs of operating the facility will be over its full life cycle. The correspondence of the applied capabilities and the technical and technological level of development of society is necessarily analyzed.
  • It is assessed how successful the choice in favor of a particular technological solution was. At the same time, compliance with the requirements for works, services, and products is analyzed. Experts pay attention to the availability of alternative methods for developing a product that can achieve a better or similar result.

When an investment project is audited, analysts provide reasons in favor of a certain technological solution. At the same time, it is analyzed whether new goods and products are created during the work process or whether old ones are modernized, or whether there is neither one nor the other. Services and civil works must be taken into account separately. Expert assessment is given only taking into account the specifics of the technological process and its compliance with the level of development of our society.

Subtleties of audit

When assessing a project, allowing you to draw conclusions about the wisdom of investing in a certain object, it is imperative to analyze the following subtle points:

  • Choice in favor of the equipment used (it is customary to resort to a larger range of products). They evaluate whether the result of the work corresponds to what is expected by society at the current technical level of development.
  • Timing, preparatory stages and period of the project as a whole. Analysts draw conclusions about the optimal time frame or the need to adjust it.
  • Risks associated with the implementation of the project. Experts pay attention to the technological aspects of possible dangerous situations, economic and temporary.

During a project audit, attention must be paid to the maximum selling price. It must include expenses calculated in accordance with aggregated indicators. Similar projects being built in the same country as well as abroad are taken into account. A comparative price analysis should be based on data obtained from different construction sites, where work is carried out under conditions similar to those characteristic of the one being analyzed.

The result of the audit is an expert opinion, confirmed by the signatures of all persons participating in the analysis. It is drawn up in a form approved at the state level, and allows the potential investor to make a final decision in favor of the project or abandon it.

Audit: when do we conduct it?

Undoubtedly, the task of evaluating a project that is attractive from an investment point of view is a responsible and complex process that requires an investment of time and money. This means that it does not always need to be carried out. You should turn to a private or public company for expertise if you need to confirm that a particular project will actually be effective as it is implemented. The assessment also allows you to find alternative options through which you can protect your interests.

An audit is indispensable if it is necessary to ensure that the work process uses exactly the technologies stated in the project documentation. The assessment allows us to clarify their modernity, efficiency and effectiveness, taking into account the specifics of the economy and the level of development. This is important: the audit allows you to draw conclusions regarding the technologies, materials and capabilities used precisely at the time of the assessment. This does not mean that tomorrow its results will still be relevant, since there is a possibility of a sudden discovery of fundamentally new approaches, techniques and methods for solving certain practical problems.

Correctness and relevance

During the audit, the estimate documentation must be verified. This stage allows you to draw correct conclusions about the following aspects:

  • availability of sufficient justification for all planned expenses;
  • compliance of equipment and materials;
  • adequacy of the project relative to market value.

Attention is paid to everyone without exception!

During an audit, experts check how correctly the funds allocated for the implementation of the project are used. If the contractor claims that he has achieved some important level of performance indicators, then during the audit you can make sure that this information is accurate and correct, true and trustworthy. At the same time, the indicators stated in the project documentation are analyzed and compared with the real state of affairs.

In some cases, assessment activities allow us to draw a conclusion about how justified certain decisions applied during construction are. In this case, the results of the analysis will contain conclusions about the cost of the object, taking into account technical parameters.

Shall we order?

Which legal entities most often turn to the services of experts? Practice shows that this kind of service is relevant for enterprises that have state money, as well as those companies in which the state takes part.

The answer the customer receives directly depends on at what stage of the project it was decided to turn to third-party experts for the purpose of an audit. In some cases, you should count on recommendations that will help optimize your workflow and make it more profitable. Here, experts offer technological and technical solutions to complex situations that can help complete construction in the shortest possible time while minimizing costs. If the audit is requested at the stage when documentation for the facility is already being prepared, then the experts will tell you how to pass the state examination. Specialists working on the project will learn from independent experts what shortcomings were made and will receive recommendations to improve the quality of the project.

Summing up

So, an audit of an investment project is a process that makes it possible to obtain information about how profitable, promising and optimized the project is. An audit allows you to understand whether construction is necessary in principle, as well as to identify alternative methods for creating a similar facility at lower costs. Analysts study the technologies and materials used and draw conclusions about their adequacy, modernity, and reasonable cost.

The main advantage of auditing is independence. This makes it stand out against the background of state expertise, which involves a conflict of interest, since the assessment of the activities carried out there is given by the people who carried them out. But in the case of an audit, third-party specialists are involved who are able to correctly evaluate what has been implemented and analyze what and how can be improved.

SEVERIN DEVELOPMENT provides services for conducting public technological and price audit of investment projects. The company has a staff of qualified specialists, many years of experience in the field of auditing and is part of the National Association of Technological and Price Audits.

The purpose of the procedure and the procedure for its implementation are determined by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated April 30, 2013 No. 382 (as amended on December 23, 2016).

Technology and price audit (TPA)- comprehensive inspection of investment projects implemented by public and private organizations, which is advisable in the following cases:
  1. Confirmation of the validity of the effectiveness of the project implementation and the search for alternative technical, technological and organizational options that make it possible to maximally protect the interests of not only public, but also private customers.
  2. Verification of the declared technologies in terms of their cost and relevance based on the current economic situation and the level of development of production technologies at the time of construction.
  3. Checking the estimate documentation for:
    • compliance with current market prices,
    • unreasonableness of the envisaged expenses,
    • compliance with the cost of purchased materials and equipment.
  4. Checking the intended use of funds (including budget funds) during the implementation of the project.
  5. Confirmation of achieved indicators and determination of their compliance with the indicators that were announced at the start of the project.

If the assessment of the technological component of the project concerns the validity of construction decisions and operating costs, then the price audit of investment projects allows us to determine the cost of the object under construction/reconstruction, taking into account technical audit data.

The main customers of price and technology audits are enterprises whose investment projects are fully financed by the state, or companies with state participation.

Public technology and price audits are carried out at four stages of project implementation:

  • Stage 1- preparation of justifications for the main technical/technological solutions for the implementation of the investment project and calculations of the aggregated estimated cost. Conducting a technology audit at this stage involves the following activities:
    • determining the technical/technological feasibility of project implementation;
    • analysis of the optimality of basic technical/technological solutions and their compliance with modern international practice;
    • analysis of the project business plan and calculation of economic efficiency;
    • analysis of technological and market risks of implementing an investment project, SWOT analysis.

The technological audit carried out at this stage ends with the development of recommendations for optimizing the project (proposing alternative technical/technological solutions).

  • Stage 2- preparation of design and estimate documentation for passing the state examination of the investment project. At this stage, audit activities include:
    • analysis of the sufficiency and completeness of design and estimate documentation;
    • analysis of compliance of structural and technological design solutions with the requirements stipulated by the Technical Specifications, as well as current GOST, SNiP and other acts regulating construction;
    • analysis of compliance with the requirements for energy efficiency and environmental safety of the facility in accordance with the design and technological solutions developed in the design documentation;
    • analysis of the project schedule.

A technological audit carried out at the documentation preparation stage ensures successful completion of the state examination. In the conclusion drawn up, the Contractor will point out the existing shortcomings and give appropriate recommendations.

  • Stage 3- construction/reconstruction of the facility according to the investment project. The audit at this stage includes:
    • financial and technical examination of ways to implement the investment project;
    • checking the targeted expenditure of funds (including budget funds) allocated for construction, checking the compliance of the cost and quality of completed work with the concluded contracts, analyzing the risks of deviations from the budget and planned indicators;
    • conducting a technological audit to ensure compliance of the work performed at the site with the design requirements and conditions of working documentation, technical regulations, engineering survey results, and the requirements of the GPZU (urban planning plan for the land plot);
    • checking compliance with the requirements of energy efficiency regulations of the completed facility in accordance with the terms of the project documentation;
    • risk assessment and preparation by the Contractor of recommendations on finalizing the investment project.
  • Stage 4- after the finished facility is put into operation. Technological audit and expert assessment of the cost of the facility include:
    • analysis of compliance of the facility’s operational indicators with the parameters of the Technical Specifications for the design;
    • checking the compliance of the completed project with the approved design and estimate documentation;
    • checking the targeted expenditure of funds (including budget funds) allocated for the construction/reconstruction of the facility, checking the compliance of the cost of work performed with contracts and agreements, analyzing the risks of non-compliance with the budget and deviations from the planned parameters;
    • analysis of the compliance of the work performed at the site with the requirements of working and design documentation, technical regulations, engineering survey results, and the requirements of the GPZU (urban planning plan for the land plot);
    • checking compliance with energy efficiency regulations of a completed facility in accordance with the terms of the project documentation;
    • analysis of the environmental efficiency of the facility in operational mode;
    • provision by the Contractor of motivated recommendations to improve the efficiency of the investment project.
