calculated confidence
Rawlinsons (W.A.) is a Quantity Surveying and Construction Cost Management firm, founded in 1953 Perth, Western Australia.
Our philosophy has always been to provide professional expertise in specialist cost management and budgetary control to all construction and development projects, with meticulous detail and exceptional service.
Along with providing cost consultancy services, Rawlinsons (W.A.) are the creators and editors of the extensively circulated Rawlinsons Australian Construction Handbook and Rawlinsons Construction Cost Guide. Our publications are produced annually, providing the Australia Construction industry with a comprehensive and current library of construction pricing information.
Rawlinsons (W.A.) are committed to corporate responsibility and believe transparency is the best way we can provide the public with the assurance that we are doing our best as an ethical corporate citizen.
In compliance with the Australian Modern Slavery Act 2018 we have published our company statement in which we explain how slavery can affect our business and the steps we are taking to fight against it.
Based in Western Australia, all of our cost management consultancy services are conducted in house by employees who are Australian citizens. In our Publishing wing our team is made up of full time, part time and casual employees, all of whom are Australian citizens. In the compilation of the Construction Cost Publications we pay consultants across Australia to assist us in obtaining the accurate cost data contained in the books.

A key part of our slavery and human trafficking strategy is to promote cultural change through training.
