PERFORMANCE OF THE NIGERIAN BUILDING AND CONSTRUCTION
SECTOR WITHIN THE NIGERIAN ECONOMY.
The review of the Nigerian economy for the period 2007 to 2011 shows the performance of the
building and construction sector as compared to the Oil and Gas and Agriculture sectors.
Available data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) are used to profile sector
performance and the structure of the economy over a period of five years spanning from 2007
to 2011.
The contribution of the Building and Construction Sector to Nigeria economy in real terms
improved from 1.72% in 2007 to 2.08% in 2011. However the Building and Construction sector
growth in real terms fluctuated from 13.07% in 2007 to 11.85% by 2010 and rose to 12.26% in
2011.
Performance of Building and Construction to overall National Gross Fixed Capital Formation as
expressed in Table III shows sustained upward increased from N12.9billion in real terms (i.e. at
1990 purchasers value) to N26.5billion by 2010. The same trend was observed for the Building
and Construction sector’s value added to the economy between 2004 and 2008 with available
data. The value added from the Building and Construction improved from N171.3billion in 2004
to N318.8billion in 2008 in nominal terms

Foreword
This work is founded on the promise I made at the first meeting of the current Governing Board of
the Quantity Surveyors Registration Board of Nigeria (QSRBN) to the effect that the activities and
operations of the board shall be open, competitive and transparent. I promised that this board
shall lead by example in line with our core values of Transparency, Accountability, Probity,
Integrity, Professional Ethics, Value-for-money and Professional Competence.
The Quantity Surveyors Registration Board of Nigeria (QSRBN) is an Agency of the Federal
Government established by law with clear mandate as to its functions. The goal is to ensure that
the profession of quantity surveying in Nigeria is practised by professionally competent,ethically
sound, globally competitive, educationally qualified and practically proficient persons as approved
by the governing board of the QSRBN. It is the mandate of the QSRBN to safeguard public interest
by ensuring that the function of costing, estimating and valuing of building and construction
projects in Nigeria does not become an all-comers’ affair. The goal is to ensure that professionals
who perform the above functions in both the public and private sectors of the Nigerian economy
have the sanction of the QSRBN whose cardinal roles as entshrined in the Decree establishing it is
“to regulate the practice of Quantity Survyoring profession in Nigeria in all its aspects and
ramifications”. The benefits of this are enormous, just as they impact positively on the integrity of
the building and construction component of the nations gross fixed capital formation, budgetary
planning and resource allocation. The Review of the building and construction sector in Nigerian
economy highlights the strategic importance of this sector to National Development.
The achievements of the current governing board as highlighted in the body of this report came
inspite of debilitating funding constraints. For example as public servants, the salaries and
emoluments of the staff of the QSRBN should be a first line charge on the Annual Appropriation
Act of the Federal Government as applicable to other Federal civil and public servants.
Regrettably, this Board has not received any allocation for the payment of staff salaries and
emoluments, overheads and operating costs. It is pertinent that whatever structural defects that
bring about this unwholesome scenario should be corrected. A budget line for the QSRBN detailing
its capital and recurrent expenditure estimates is a categorical imperative if the Board must fulfill
the mandate given to it by the Federal Government through the enabling Act.
The QSRBN welcomes comments including criticisms of the contents, texture, thematic focus of
this report as well as the general activities of the Board so that future editions will improve on the
current one because we appreciate the vulnerability of a maiden edition of a report such as this.
This report is primarily prepared for presentation to our supervisory Minister, the Hon. Minister of
Lands, Housing and Urban Development, Ms. AmalPepple CFR, whose support we leveraged to
make the modest achievements contained in this report and for this we remain grateful. Other
departments of Government, the Press, Civil Society Organisations and International Developing
Partners will see reasons in the report to partner with the QSRBN to promote a regime and order
where those who engage in costing, estimating and valuing of building and constructionprojects in
16
Nigeria are duly certified to do so and held accountable for their actions. This will drastically
reduce the current high cost of building and construction projects in Nigeria.
Thank you.

Preface
Regular rendition of reports and accounts are imperativeto the success of any
organization which receives public funding.This is a basic requirement in public
accountability. For a body such as the Quantity surveyors Registration Board of
Nigeria (QSRBN) whose core values are founded on probity, accountability,
transparency, sound professional ethics and value for money, this requirement
becomes more urgent. Annual reports and accounts should be a regular feature of
any responsible public sector institution in line with the Federal Government public
service reforms and the Transformation Agenda of His Excellency, Dr.
GoodluckEbele Jonathan GCFR.
This report covers the activities of the current Board beginning from its first meeting
on 23rd Sept, 2010. Highlights include Meetings, Press Conferences, Round Table,
Summits,
Conferences/Colloquia,
Inductions/Orientations,
Accreditations,
Registration, Committee of Registrars meetings, Finances/Accounts and
thepreparation MasterPlan for the QSRBN as a body corporate.
For the reason of lack of adequate funding by Governement and the attendant
institututional weakness, an annual report ought to be a regular feature since the
QSRBN commenced operations in 1989. This institutional weakness and absence of
enabling structures have slowed down the Board’s effectiveness in the pursuit of its
statutory mandate.It is to the doggedness and strategic vision of the current
Governing Board of the QSRBN that this maiden edition covering a period of two
years is being published with the assurance that the Annual Report and Accounts of
the QSRBN will become regular henceforth. A further assurance is given that the
Report of any particular year will come out to the public domain in the first quarter
of the succeeding year.

Executive Summary
The Quantity Surveyors Registration Board of Nigeria was established by Decree No 31 of 1986
(Now CAP 383 LFN 1990). Its first Governing Board was inaugurated in November, 1989 while it
began registration of Quantity Surveyors in April, 1990. The Governing Board is headed by the
President who is assisted by the Vice-President of the Board. The Secretariat of the Board is
headed by the Registrar who is also the Secretary of the Board and all its committees. To date the
Board has had four presidents, namely:
(i) Mr. Emeka Osemenam
(ii) Alhaji A. M. Kawu
(iii)Mr. S. E. Emiowele
(iv) Mallam Husaini A. Dikko
(Nov. 1989 – June 1997)
(June 1997 – Nov. 2006)
(Nov. 2006 – Sept. 2010)
(Sept. 2010 – Date)
The Board also boasts of five Registrars namely:
(i) Late Mr. Kofo Popoola
(ii) Prof. G.O. Jagboro
(iii)Alh. U. D. Madaki
(iv) Prof. S. O. Oyediran
(v) Mr. Godson O. Moneke
(Dec. 1989 – Dec. 1992)
(Oct. 1995 – Nov. 1998)
(Aug. 2000 – Nov. 2006)
(Nov. 2006 – Sept 2010)
(Sept. 2010 – Date)
When the current Board came into being in September 2010, it had observed that the
organization had largely underperformed in meeting the mandate given to it by the enabling law
in the previous 21 years of its existence. A critical appraisal revealed that weak organizational
structure, poor institutional design, weak governmental support and poor funding especially by
government whose agency the Board is, were the main reasons for this appalling state of affairs.
For example, the Board operated without a Registrar for a cumulative period of about 5 years
(Dec. 1992 – Oct. 1995 & Nov. 1998 – Aug. 2000). Consequently meetings of the Board were
irregular, coupled with near absence of government subvention which was supposed to be the
major source of funding for a public agency of its type. Salaries of staff were seldom paid and staff
were owed years of salaries in arrears.Staff morale was low. Office rent was also owed.The
Nigerian Institute of Quantity Surveyors (NIQS) had to bail out the Board at various
times;otherwise the situation would have been aggravated. Staff salaries and emoluments are
supposed to be first line charge on Federal Government Annual Appropriation Act. Yet no
proviosion is made for the staff of the QSRBN
By the time the current Board came into being in September, 2010, only two Induction
Ceremonies had been held to formally admit newly registered Quantity Surveyors and firms in the
previous 21 years of existence of the QSRBN. Only one Mandatory Continuing Professional
Development Programme was held and there was no forum for annual meeting of Registered
Quantity Surveyors to take stock and review the state of the profession and industry. Therefore, as
at September 2010, only 1281 registered quantity surveyors and 54 practising firms had been
inducted by the Board in the previous 21 years.
19
The current Board inherited a Secretariat with a staff strength of four including a part-time
Registrar. The three permanent staff met on ground were an Administrative Manager, a
Confidential Secretary and a Clerk. The current Board also inherited a Diamond Bank Plc. Account
containing a fixed deposit sum of N15 Million being a 2010 capital grant from the Federal Ministry
of Lands, Housing and Urban Development for the acquisition of designated fixed assets namely
one (1) No Toyota Hiace Bus, one (1) No Toyota Avensis, Various Office Equipment and Furniture.
This money was strictly tied to the above fixed assets with profoma invoices thus leaving the
Board to commence operation with the sum of about N7 Million which was in the Current Account
of the Board with the same Diamond Bank.With the exception of the current President
MallamHusaini A. Dikko who has donated his sitting allowances to the Board, the logistics and
sitting allowances of all Board Members for all Board and committee meetings are fully funded by
the Board. At the time the current Board came in, office rent of overN7 Million was almost due.
Faced with this reality, the Governing Board did a quick strategic appraisal of the state of affairs in
order to generate revenue.
The Governing Board has in the last 2 years registered/inducted 630 new Quantity Surveyors (an
increase of about 50% over what it met); and 95 practicing firms, (an increase of 17.6% over what
it met). The Governing Board has held three induction ceremonies, (an increase of 150% over
what it met). The induction has now become an annual ceremony (contrary to only two in 21
years which the current governing board met). The current board has organized six Mandatory
Continuing Professional Development Programmes in the two years of its existence (only two
were conducted in the last 21 years). The governing board ensures that the proceedings of all the
mandatory Continuing Professional Development events organized by the Board are published
and circulated to institutions of higher learning, selected organizations in the public and private
sectors and international development partners. These programmes are used to deepen and
expand the body of knowledge of the profession of quantity surveying and the published
proceedings serve as Institutional memory.
On the financial side, the current Governing Board of the QSRBN has expended a total sum of One
Hundred and Forty-Six Million, Four Hundred and Twenty-One Thousand, Eight Hundred and FiftySix Naira, Eighty-Four Kobo only (N146,421,856.84) over the past 2 years in running the affairs of
the Board as against a total income of One Hundred and Eighty Million, Five Hundred and Three
Thousand, Three Hundred and Twenty Nine Naira, Eighty Kobo only (N180,503,329.80) including a
Federal Government capital grant of Forty-Six Million, Four Hundred and Two Thousand Naira only
(N46,402,000.00)over the past 2 years. Government Subvention over the period has been as

This gives a total bank balance, as at 31st December, 2012 of N34,081,478.96
The staff strength of the QSRBN has been increased from the four mentioned above to 14
including a part-time Registrar. The current staff include the Admin Manager, Accountant, 2 I.T.
Officers, Confidential Secretary, Admin Secretary, Finance Officer, Admin Officer, Clerk, Front Desk
Officer, 2 Drivers, and Security Guard. The Board requires a full compliment of about 40 staff
including Directors, Deputy Directors etc to operate optimally.
The current Governing Board also relocated the corporate office of the QSRBN from a 4-Room
office space at Edo House CBD to a more spacious 7-Room en-suite Duplex with exclusive
compound and appurtenances for more conducive working environment.
The current governig Board has also taken out a group life insurance policy for all the staff and
members of the governing board of the QSRBN. The board has in addition registered all the staff
and board members under the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) to ensure that they all
have access to good Medicare to ensure total wholeness and fitness of staff, management and
board.
The Board has held the mandatory four statutory meetings each in 2011 & 2012 with one
emergency meeting in 2012 giving a total of eight statutory meetings and one emergency
meeting. The Board held two statutory meetings and one emergency meeting in the remainder of
2010 of its inauguration.
The Board met an almost moribund institutional accreditation system and structure with the
result that practically all the QS programmes mounted by Universities and Polytechnics were not
accredited by the Board of the QSRBN. Consequently, the Governing Board undertook a strategic
appraisal of the accreditation status of these institutions and decided to embark on a cluster
accreditation of these institutions with effect from September, 2012. So far 10 institutions have
been accredited while the remainder have been scheduled for accreditation before the end of
March, 2013.
The Governing Board also re-affirmed the basic entry requirement into the profession as 5 credits
which must include English Language, Mathematics, Physics and two other relevant subjects in the
sciences and commercial.
By the time the current Board came on board, the Accounts of the QSRBN was last audited up to
December 31st, 2006, hence the governing board engaged the services of Henry Young & Co, a
21
firm of Chartered Accountants with current registration status with the Office of the AuditorGeneral of the Federation to clear the backlog of arrears and bring the audit status of the QSRBN
Account to date.
The Board is a defendant in a legal suit alongside the Hon.Attorney-General of the Federation and
the Hon. Minister of Lands, Housing & Urban Development while Mr. Tsena S. Tite is the Plaintiff.
Hearings and arguments have been concluded and judgement has been reserved by the Presiding
Judge. This Board has no judgementliability or debt of any kind.
To address the weaknesses observed in the organic structure, institutional framework and the
general operations of the QSRBN, the Governing Board engaged the services of M/S Statistical
Systems Management Consulting Ltd (Management and Systems Consultants) to design a
Masterplan for the QSRBN as a Body Corporate. The draft report has been approved by the
governing Board for implementation. This Masterplan will result in a new organizational structure
with five departments each headed by a DIRECTOR and ten divisions each headed by a DEPUTYDIRECTOR to be supported by other senior, inter-mediate and junior staff. The Masterplan will
also lead to the establishment of the QSRBN NATIONAL DATA CENTRE FOR BUILDING &
CONSTRUCTION COST DATA BASES.
This report is presented for the purposes of accountability, transparency and probity in tandem
with the core values of the Quantity Surveyors Registration Board as an Agency of the Federal
Government and a Body Corporate. It contains details of the various compartments and segments
of the activities of the current Governing Board of the QSRBN in the past 2 years. This report has
been prepared in the best tradition of Public Accountability.

In exercise of its powers under Section 5(1) of the Act, the governing board at its meeting of 23rd
September, 2010 appointed Mr. Godson O. Moneke as Registrar of the QSRBN. Having earlier
elected Mr.Agele J. Alufohai as Vice – President, the full complement of the principal officers of
the QSRBN at inception was as follows:
(1) President – Mallam Husanni A. Dikko - PPNIQS, FNIQS, RQS
(2) Vice – President – Mr.Agele J. Alufohai – FNIQS, RQS
(3) Registrar – Mr. Godson O. Moneke – FNIQS, RQS
However, following the outcome of elections into the National Executive Council of the Nigerian
Institute of Quantity Surveyors in November 2011, the Institute subsequently replaced its five initial
representatives on the governing board with the following five members who currently sit on the
board of the QSRBN viz:i. MallamMurtala M. Aliyu – FNIQS, RQS
ii. Alhaji Mohammad K. Olayiwola – FNIQS, RQS
iii. Ms.ArinolaOlumide – FNIQS, RQS

MallamMurtala M. Aliyu was elected Vice-President of the Board to fill the vacuum created by the
withdrawal of Mr.Agele J. Alufohai by the NIQS.
In early 2012, the QSRBN lost a very energetic female member of the Governing Board and then
Chairperson of the Research & Development Committee of the Board in the person of Hajia Aisha
Garba. HajiaGarba had an illustrious career in the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) where she retired
meritoriously. Until her death, she was an independent Consultant in quantity surveying, project
management and financial advisory services. May her soul rest in peace. Amen.
In July 2012, following his formal retirement from the Federal Civil Service where he rose to the
position of Director, Mr. Felix Ewah ceased to represent the Federal Ministry of Lands, Housing
and Urban Development (FMLH & UD) on the governing board. This position is now being
occupied by Alhaji Musa Muhammed Magaji Mshalgaya.

HIGHLIGHTS ON PROFESSIONAL SUMMITS,
ROUNDTABLES AND CONFERENCES
June 14th &15th, 2011
1st ANNUAL BUILDING & CONSTRUCTION ECONOMIC ROUND-TABLE [BCERT 1]
Setting Agenda for Nigeria’s Economic Development through the Building &
Construction Sector
Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre, Abuja
Attendance: The Round-Table attracted about 300 participants from the public and private sectors and was
declared officially open by Nigeria’s Vice-President, His Excellency, Arc. Mohammed Namadi Sambo, GCON,
fnia – in his own right as an active practitioner in the sector.
Welcome Address by Mallam Husaini A. Dikko, PPNIQS, FNIQS, RQS; President, QSRBN
•
BCERT1 is to provide desired impetus to the strategic B&C sector within Nigeria’s socio-economic
milieu. Its capacity to generate employment on a massive scale, contribute to fixed capital formation and
assets, and the multiplier effects on the general economy are not in doubt.
•
B&C are vast and pervasive, with components spanning agriculture education, health, industry,
water resources, aviation, mining, oil & gas, telecommunications, sports & recreation, tourism and
entertainment, etc.
•
Clearly, the attainment of Vision 20:2020 and Millennium Development Goals [MDGs] will be
difficult without this sector.
•
This Round-Table will be an annual event to generate inputs for policy making and sustainable
development. Setting agenda for national economic development through the B&C sector is the driving
force behind this series.
•
The QS profession is concerned with financial probity, value-for-money, efficient allocation of
resources and accountability in the conceptualization, planning and execution of B&C projects.
•
Pursuit of value-for-money entails waging a fierce war against corruption and other economic
crimes and vices. It is time we looked critically at the B&C sector in terms of input-output model.
•
Nigeria cannot be an island. The cost of construction in Nigeria must compare with elsewhere in
the West Coast of Africa because the features and variables are similar.
•
The QSRBN is very grateful to our resource persons for their inputs; His Excellency, the VicePresident, Arc. Mohammed Namadi Sambo, GCON, fnia for honouring our invitation; as well as our Guests
of Honour, Special Guests, distinguished participants and the Press for being part of the programme.
Goodwill Message by Mr. Agele J. Alufohai, FNIQS, RQS; President, NIQS/Vice-President, QSRBN
Given the pervasive linkages between economic growth and the construction sector, it is highly
•
auspicious that we are having this forum just after historic national elections.
•
President Goodluck Jonathan has promised us that his mandate will be used to transform Nigeria;
and we canb make his task easier. Any leader who wants to transform Nigeria can take a short-cut by
transforming the construction sector.
•
Nigeria is estimated to have a housing deficit of about 17 million housing units, but it is strange that
the capacity to procure these units actually exists in the economy.
•
Nigeria’s housing deficit is widely acknowledged to impose untold hardships, especially on the
poor, thus breeding crime and disease. The roots are traceable to such poor policies as the Land Use Act.
•
Infrastructure, especially roads, has to be financed in different ways. Concessions must be given to
companies with the technical and financial competences. Government must live up to its rhetoric and truly
become an efficient regulator and enabler in the sector; rather than a well-resourced and inefficient
competitor with the private sector.
•
A portion of Government revenue can be dedicated to providing social housing to the poorest
Nigerians.
34
by Mr. Segun Ajanlekoko, President, Association of Professional Bodies of Nigeria
Goodwill Message
• This very important forum will set the tone for governance over the next four years.
• Interestingly, the Vice-President of Nigeria who is here with us is also a Builder.
• Government should look at the possibility of setting up an Infrastructure Development Bank. There is
also the need for a Building and Construction Board to harmonise the activities of the sub-sectors and
practitioners.
Opening Remarks by His Excellency, Arc. Mohammed Namadi Sambo, GCON, fni; Vice-President, Federal
Republic of Nigeria
• In his own right an active stakeholder in the Building and Construction sector, the Vice-President
expressed delight to be at the Round-Table designed to generate ideas for improvements in the sector and
employment generation.
• The need for affordable housing, value-for-money, cost control and due process cannot be overemphasized.
• “We have to get it right”, he asserted, as he revealed that he accepted the invitation due to the fact
that the sector is critical to the administration’s mission to transform Nigeria. Therefore, the Federal
Government identifies with the QSRBN in its efforts to reform and strengthen the sector.
• He urged participants to support the Board in its activities, and informed that Government had set in
motion the machinery to instil professionalism in the sector. As a practitioner himself, he reiterated the
essence of a strong regulatory body for the B&C Sector.
• He expressed hope that the Communiqué would inspire Government in its tasks to transform the
country. All hands, he observed, must be on deck.
The main presentations and their highlights include:
1. The Economics of Building and Construction in Nigeria’s Development by Henry C. Eteama, Consultant
Statistician/Economist
-- The geography of Nigeria explains, to a large extent, the structure of the Nigeria economy which is
largely dominated by the primary sectors of Agriculture, Mining and Distributive Trade.
-- Macro-economic stability and steady economic growth of the past decade are expected to have
manifested in development but the reverse is seen in high unemployment, unacceptable poverty incidence,
high mortality rates, low life expectancy at birth, sustained excruciating inflationary pressure, etc.
-- The basis of the “impressive” annual 6% average growth of the domestic economy is growing
impressively is faulty; hence, the need for restructuring.
-- The key issues include how other critical and modern sectors currently contributing only 20% of Real GDP
should be energized to play prominent role in economic development. They include solid Minerals,
Manufacturing, Transportation Telecommunication, Finance & Insurance, Tourism (Hotel & Restaurants)
Utilities, Real Estates, Business Services and Other Services.
-- The key to diversity and modernize the real sectors of the economy on a solid foundation depends on our
commitment to embark on massive B&C programmes. They must be national in nature and cuts across the
pivotal activity sectors of the economy.
-- The Nigerian economy could be repositioned to achieve the objective of being one of the top 20
economies of the world if we use the B&C sector as a pivotal catalytic element.
-- The government at Federal, State and Local levels should function as an integrated body with common
destiny to move the economy away from the past myopic focus to dream and act big.
-- Priority B&C projects include:
* Water Supply
* Urban Renewal
* Education
* Railways
* Telecommunications
35
-- Anticipated challenges in fulfilling these projects include doubtful executive commitment; corrupt
practices; high dependence on foreign inputs [firms, materials/labour]; high costs; and poor data for
planning, evaluation, monitoring & reporting of B&C projects.
-- Among the proffered solutions to these challenges are: executive commitment to radical transformation;
and all hands-on-deck by stakeholders.
--The QSRBN and the profession must ensure elimination of over-invoicing; proper evaluation of projects;
prices must reflect market rates; use of facts and data rather than guess work for costing; development of a
robust data base on materials/prices/ equipments/ professionals/and charges; effective collaboration with
such other key stakeholder-institutions as the ICPC, EFCC, NBS, BPP and professional bodies in B&C sector;
imbibed culture of enhanced higher marginal propensity for local content; and sanctioning of fraudulent
members.
Conclusion
Use of articulated B&C projects will ensure real economic growth and development.
B&C projects will help ease youth unemployment.
Priority B&C projects could be funded if there is Executive Commitment, proper planning, effective
monitoring and periodic performance evaluation.
We must fight the corruption monster in the B&C sector.
Our desire henceforth should be on how the key players in the
The Quantity Surveyors Registration Board of Nigeria must take the lead and save the country from
inherent corrupt practices in the Building and Construction Sector as we match on to transform and
develop the Nigerian economy.
2. Challenges of Construction and Infrastructure Development in Nigeria by Engr. Eric Onyeiwu, FNSE,
Consultant Engineer
-- Economic development is anchored on adequate infrastructural provision which in turn is anchored on
good construction delivery.
-- The MDGs Quickwin Project is a Federal Government programme designed toproperly execute the
constituency projects of the National Assembly members in such a manner that it will accelerate the
attainment of the Millennium Development Goals. The chosen sectors are Health, Education and Water
Supply.
i-- The use of Private Sector Consultants for planning, management, supervision and coordination of the
programme has been adjudged the singular most important step in its successful execution.
-- The easily recognizable challenges to the smooth and orderly implementation of the construction efforts
include Poor Budgetary Planning, Poor Contractor Selection Process, Greed of the Nigerian Contractor,
Delays Occasioned By Re-Advertisement, End-of-Year Mopping Up of Funds,Introduction of E-Payment
System, CBN Inability to Handle the Volume of Transaction, Change of Requests and Change of Sites,
Paucity of Funds to Meet Advance Payment Requirement , Challenges of Niger Delta Contracts , Challenges
of Supply Contracts, Delays in Meeting Certified Payments, Delays Occasioned by the Global Economic
Meltdown, and Adoption of Innovative Procurement Process.
Conclusions/Recommendations
Good Budgetary Practice
Good Procurement Practice
Good Cash-Flow Plan
Quality of Selected Contractors
Collaboration/Cooperation between Client Personnel and Consultants
Strong Political Will at Highest Level
Transparent Reporting
Operational Framework
Public-Private Partnership Model
Use of Professional Consultants
Professional Regulatory Bodies.
3. Financing Infrastructure Provision for Growth & Development: The Urban Development Bank
Experienceby Mr. Adekunle A. Oyinloye, MD/CEO, UDBN PLC -- It is not a mismatch, to have the
36
custodians of quantities and measurements, champion a course of this nature. The importance of the
QSRBN cannot be over-emphasized at this stage of the country’s national development and transformation.
-- Traditional Sources of Infrastructure Finance and their Limitations include:
Government Funding (through Budgetary Allocations) -- grossly inadequate for any meaningful
infrastructure development as large chunks usually go for recurrent expenditure.
Commercial Bank Loans -- not of the right temperament best suited for infrastructure development as they
usually have short-term tenures.
Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) -- still novel in Nigeria with very few institutions t appreciating it
sufficiently.
-- The UDBN is an Agent of Change tomobilise long-term funds for on-lending to States and Local
governments for infrastructure projects; empower and strengthen the capacity of Nigerian Local
Governments to raise additional revenue, through tenement rating to provide and maintain urban
infrastructure for their residents; lead State and Local Governments to raise bonds from the capital market
for urban services; and establish information base for adequate planning and decision-making, in
conjunction with interested States and urban Local Governments.
-- The UDBN has identified certain challenges confronting State & Local Governments on Infrastructure
Development. They include rapid population and settlement growth; inadequate statutory allocation/IGR
inefficiencies; problems of access to, cost and quality of finance; negative perception of SNGs about debt;
inadequate institutional capacity/management; lack of Infrastructure Development Plans (IDPs); lack of
continuity of policies by successive Governments; and backlog of unmet needs for services & demand
from new areas.
-- In response, the UDBN developed a number of initiatives, among which are:
* Infrastructure Loan Scheme (ILS) for Local Governments.
* Urban Renewal and Slum Upgrading Scheme under the MDG Project.
* Capacity Building and Technical Assistance.
-- The UDBN has its own constraints of absence of appropriate business models, weak operational capacity,
lack of good corporate governance structure, and weak risk management system.
-- The key solution was to divest controlling shares of the Bank to private investors take controlling stake in
the Bank. In November 2007, the management of the UDBN was effectively taken over by the private
sector, which has strengthened the bank’s foundation for growth and contributed to the skill base.
-- Restructuring and reorganization has enabled the bank to make solid impact in such infrastructural areas
as Power, Roads, Ports, Railways, Water & Waste Management, Urban Mass Transportation, Housing,
and Municipal Enterprises.
-- Today, the bank offers specialist project finance and financial advisory services to deserving public and
private sector customers alike -- sub-national Governments, private individuals and companies alike.
-- On offer include:
* Development Loans
* Proprietary Equity
* Public Private Partnership Transaction Structuring
* Bond Issuance, Underwriting and Market-Making
* Capacity Building & Technical Assistance
-- To improve its technical capacity, UDBN has developed a vast range of strategic partnerships with the
following institutions: Banco Efisa, (BE) Portugal; Pan-China Construction Group; Development Bank of
Southern Africa.
-- The Bank has also created a Municipal Finance Desk (MFD), the first of its kind in Nigeria, and dedicated
exclusively to the infrastructure development needs of Local Governments.
4. Affordable Housing Development in Nigeria: A Micro-Analysis of Modern Housing Estates by Mr.
Martins Akumazi, GM, ASO Investment & Development Co.
-- Housing is one of the three most important basic needs of man, the others being food and clothing. It not
only affects the welfare of the citizens but also the performance of other sectors of the economy.
-- The B&C industry in Nigeria is a significant component of the economy; accounting (directly) for almost
2% of GDP, but generating indirect and induced value that are somewhat difficult to measure.
37
-- Nigeria has a huge housing deficit estimated at 16 million units. 720,000 units are required yearly to meet
MDG on housing and estimated mortgage financing gap is over N56 trillion.
-- Generally-accepted guidelines for determining affordability of housing:
* housing cost that does not exceed 30% of a household’s gross income.
*housing costs include utility costs, taxes, levies, charges and insurance for home owners
-- Successful Models for Housing Delivery usually involve a holistic approach – an integrated,
comprehensive framework between government, financiers, developers, specialized institutions, NGOs,
etc.
-- Critical drivers of successful models are:
* Finance
*Land
*Materials
*Regulatory Framework
*Macro-economic stability
*Government commitment [policy framework, tax incentives, subsidies, etc.]
Overview of Housing in Nigeria – Critical Drivers of Successful Models
Land Supply
-- Non-availability of “affordable and suitable” land is the major obstacle to affordable housing delivery.
-- The Land Use Act vests ownership of all land in the Government which then grants rights of occupancy
and sets tenure of lease for individuals.
-- The land tenurial system is incompatible with mass or affordable housing development.
-- Land cost is unduly high and exacerbated by transfer and perfection costs.
-- Practitioners in the industry have repeatedly called for a review of the Land Use Act, which tends to
restrict access to land for development and creates a scenario where only people who enjoy government
patronage gain easy access to land
--There is a strong nexus between real estate or housing and infrastructural development
General Recommendations
•
Government should reconsider the underpinning philosophy of housing in Nigeria as a right and not
as a privilege.
•
Define what is’ affordable housing’ within the context of the national minimum wage.
•
Government should prepare a robust development plan for roll-out of affordable houses over its
tenure of 4 years; driven by technocrats of proven integrity and competence.
•
Review the land tenure system [The Land Use Act is overdue for major overhaul].
•
Ensure completion of infrastructural services in layouts before sale or allocation to developers; or
give appropriate incentives to the developer.
•
Set up a platform for cheap long-term funding of real estate [Bonds, RIETs and other Asset-backed
Securities.
•
Retail Financing.
•
Encourage re-investment of profits in real estate to increase housing stock. Allow for tax holiday for
investors in the sector.
•
Introduce various levies including betterment levy for improvement made in neighbourhood to
engender ownership of schemes.
•
Promote collaboration and partnerships in real estate development.
5. Developing a Vibrant Construction Sector in Nigeria: Issues, Strategies and Challenges by Dr. Ahmed
Doko Ibrahim, Ph.D., MNIQS, ABU, Zaria
-- Globally, the construction industry plays a key role in the economy of developing and developed
countries, contributing between 4-14% of the GDP whilst generating vast amount of employment and
wealth. It also provides infrastructural support for other sectors.
38
-- The National Implementation Plan for the Nigerian Vision 20: 2020 covering 2011-2013, conservatively
estimates investment in the sector at about N4.4 trillion. This constitutes a major challenge for the sector
to provide the resources (finance, human capital, equipment, project management, technology, etc.).
-- The Nigerian Construction Industry (NCI) has been described as a ‘sleeping giant’because it employs
some 25% of the workforce and yet unable to deliver services effectively and efficiently.
-- Notwithstanding the huge investments made by successive governments, Nigeria still faces huge deficit
of basic amenities and essential public infrastructure required by the majority of the citizenry to facilitate
the attainment of other needs.
--The under-performance of the NCI is multi-faceted and akin to the situation in other countries where the
structures of the industry remain fragmented and inflexible. The limitations on efficiency and effectiveness
in project delivery include:
* Misalignment between owners (clients) and the individual contractors/consultants.
* Misalignment between the contractors/consultants.
3. Lack of access to contractors’ skills and expertise at a time when they can best and most influence the
eventual outcome.
4. Inadequate skills by contractors.
5. Inadequate access to capital, delayed payments (by particularly the public sector clients) as well as bad
financial management skills by indigenous firms.
6. Abuse of tendering process.
7. Absence of standardization.
8. Poor access to equipment.
9. Inadequate institutional and legal framework -- rendering the business environment unattractive.
10. Technological constraints [poor research and development agenda, epileptic infrastructure, ineffective
technology/knowledge transfer mechanisms as well as local content agenda].
-- The following strategies are proposed for developing a vibrant construction sector in Nigeria:
* Identifying, selecting and involving all the key contractors (and sometimes vendors of major equipment)
at an early stage of the project development.
* Affording contractors a genuine opportunity to work together and with the owner.
* Creating commercial alignment by giving the contractors a direct financial stake in the efficient design
and execution of the project.
* Development of local capacity for the local production of construction materials.
* Easy access to lease or acquisition of plant and equipment.
* Prompt payment of debts owed contractors/consultants.
* Specific government policies to protect and nurture indigenous construction companies.
* Early involvement of key participants.
* Equitable relationship – requiring that firms to develop agreed objectives, as well as finding ways of
accommodating each other’s individual objectives.
* Cooperative and collaborative working relationships between government, professional bodies and
individual firms.
* Commercial alignment.
* Integrated teams.
* Trust between project stakeholders.
* Innovation.
* Update of country-specific building codes, regulations, standards and enabling Laws as well as relevant
institutions.
* Establishment of register of construction firms at the levels of consultants, contractors, suppliers and
manufacturers.
* Encouragement of knowledge transfer through effective sub-contracting and local content laws.
* Development of training blueprint for the sector.
Challenges/Barriers to improving Nigeria’s B&C sector are reflected in:
•
Organisational structures
•
Cultural attitudes [low-level empowerment, poor peer group contact, blaming not sharing,
reluctance to communicate freely, lack of real commitment, ingrained distrust, avoidance of personal
accountability, and rigid roles and procedures]
39
•
Owner skills
6. Setting Agenda for Enhanced Development in the Provision of Low-Cost Housing and Social Services in
Nigeria by Dr. Ejike B. Anunike, MNIQS, RQS, KSC, Mabod Associates
-- The role of the B&C sector as a key driver of positive development cannot be over-emphasized.
-- Housing is a universal basic need and a key component of the national economy. Lack of it is one of the
worst forms of poverty (UNDP, 2010).
-- The challenges to successful provision of adequate housing in Nigeria include:.
* Inadequate funding of planned housing programmes and weak institutional apparatuses.
* Inadequate provision for infrastructure and basic social services [water, sanitation, education, health,
etc.].
* Prevention of slums.
* Unavailability of data and information on housing stock and quality.
* Poor access to land.
* Provision of sites and services for low-cost housing.
Low-Cost Housing or Affordable Housing or Mass Housing or Social Housing or Public Housing?
-- Low-cost housing is the type provided below the usual or average cost.
-- Affordable housingare those whose costs are deemed ‘affordable’ to those in the lower income ranges.
-- Mass housing involves/affects large numbers of people.
-- Social housing refers to rentals which may be owned and managed by the State, non-profit organizations
or a combination of both.
-- Public housing is a tenure in which the property is owned by a government authority [actually a sub-set
of social housing].
-- Government is the initiator and driver of policies and programs. Will, determination and commitment on
the part of government and the leaders are therefore a must for any meaningful and sustained
development.
-- Specific and clear agenda have to be set for each of the following grey areas, among others:
* Agenda for commitment, determination and sincerity – by government, leaders, groups, organizations,
everyone else.
* Agenda for sustained commitment – by all, particularly the leadership.
* Agenda for periodic milestones – necessary to assess progress on an interim basis.
* Agenda for policy of continuity and sustenance of government policies and programmes.
* Agenda for budgeting and implementation of budgets.
* Agenda for research and statistics.
* Agenda for social welfare reform.
* Agenda for handling major challenges and risks [corruption, climate change and global melt- down, etc.].
* Agenda for participatory development.
* Agenda for monitoring and evaluation of plans and programmes implementation.
Conclusion
-- Generally, Nigeria is on the path of positive growth, the slow pace and negative influences of poor
distribution of income and HIV/AIDS and other major diseases notwithstanding.
-- Government spending has increased though corruption has not gone beyond lip-service in real terms.
-- Pertinent and critical issues to generate holistic and realizable agenda for achieving enhanced and
sustained development, have been raised.
7. Challenges of Housing Finance and Provision: The FMBN Experience by Mr. Gimba Y. Kumo, MD/CE,
Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria
-- Housing finance can be a potent tool for economic growth and a critical element of a national
development strategy. However, in Nigeria, the story of housing provision has been an appalling one.
-- Today’s reality is that a vast majority of the 150 million-odd population live in sub-standard housing
environments served by make-shift, inadequate infrastructure, where some semblance exists.
-- To experience a revolutionary change in the current housing situation, an effective housing and mortgage
finance delivery mechanism must be put in place.
40
-- The Nigerian housing finance market operates on a multi-level structure with sources of housing finance
captured from both the formal and informal sectors of the economy. The Primary Mortgage Market is
where mortgage loans are originated with the main operators being primary mortgage institutions, savings
& loans, building societies and in a few cases, banks and other financial institutions. The Secondary
Mortgage Market primarily intervenes in the primary market to purchase mortgages from the originators
to provide them liquidity to originate more mortgages through funding obtained from the capital market.
-- The sole secondary mortgage institution in the country is the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria. It is
vested with the responsibility to raise long-term funds particularly from capital market to engender
affordable mortgages for Nigerians; and also empowered to manage the National Housing Fund [NHF].
-- The two major loan windows of the FMBN are the Concessionary window [comprising NHF Mortgage
Loans through PMIs and Estate Development Loan] and the Commercial/Capital Market window.
-- As at early 2011, some 24 States were participating in the NHF; up from just 3 in 2002.
-- Meanwhile, the FMBN has enhanced its operations through a range of initiatives, including Process
Automation, Research & Surveys, Internal Land Office, and FMBN/REDAN [Real Estate Developers
Association of Nigeria] Workshop.
-- Capital market operational performances include:
* aN100 billion Mortgage-backed Bond Programme to refinance civil servants’ acquisition of non-essential
FG-owned residential houses in the FCT.
* a Debt Management Office [DMO] N5 billion 3-year facility, which has been rolled over.
* access to Foreign Funding through such international investors and institutions Absalon Projects, Vestis
Financial Group, FMC Capital Boutique, Nerida International, and Exim Development Corporation, USA.
-- The FMBN is planning to extend its future social housing on-lending under the NHF to commercial onlending for housing; commercial mortgages refinancing; mortgage purchasing & warehousing; and
mortgage-backed securitization.
-- In order to develop a viable mortgage market in Nigeria, the PMIs and other mortgage originators need
to be rendered vibrant and viable, through:
* Recapitalisation of the FMBN from its current N5 billion base.
* Institutionalization of adequate legal framework and efficient foreclosure procedures.
* Linking micro-financing to mortgage practices through financing subsidized estate development, private
land development, slum upgrading, etc.
* Proper mortgage origination techniques [standardized procedures for property appraisal, underwriting
and documentation].
* Creation of mortgage-able assets.
* Government budgetary provisions for primary infrastructure, site and services for affordable housing.
* Development of mortgage and title insurance.
* Strengthen capacity building, manpower development and professionalism in the sector.
Conclusion
The daunting challenge posed by the scarcity of housing and mortgage finance calls for a unity of
•
purpose and action from all stakeholders.
•
The mortgage finance market in Nigeria has remained under-developed, which has engendered the
lack of sustainable home ownership for our citizens.
•
Government has not and cannot adequately fund housing provision, but it must provide the
enabling environment for private capital to thrive in the housing market.
•
Developing the B&C sector through R&D and capacity building should be pertinent in the drive to
achieve affordable housing for every Nigerian.
8. Financing Major Infrastructure in Nigeria to Achieve Intermodal Transportation Regime in Roads &
Railways by Engr. Mansur Ahmed, DG, Infrastructure Concession and Regulatory Commission
-- The State of Infrastructure in Nigeria reflects such statistics as Per Capita Power Generated not enough
to light a 40 watt bulb; US$13 billion spent annually on fuelling power generators; 65% of 198,00
kilometres Nigerian roads in bad condition [and only 20% paved].
-- Nigeria’s International Competitiveness reflects 0/10 score for business environment [BMI Report, Q3,
2010]; 135/139 for infrastructure [WEF GC Report, 2010/2011]; cost of doing business is 16% of sales – it is
41
2% in South Africa [Investment Climate Assessment, World Bank]; and unserved energy cost $130bn per
annum [Power Sector Reform Road Map].
-- The causes for this sad state of affairs include insufficient investment, inadequate maintenance, poor
planning & prioritization, corruption & rent-seeking, Governance inadequacies, lack of transparent
procurement, and lack of Inter-governmental coordination
-- The options for financing infrastructure in Nigeria are:
* Budgetary appropriation [limited amounts available, tied to budget cycle, quicker commencement,
Government procurement rules, MDA-led implementation].
* Off-Budget financing [Government borrowing: tied to project cycle, potential private sector-led process,
tied procurement].
* Direct private sector financing [Banks, insurance companies, debt-equity investors, PPPs: slower
commencement, higher returns hurdles, limited amounts available].
* Specialized infrastructure fund [still at conceptual stage, may require legislation, technical & financial
capability. lower return hurdles, private sector-led process, vehicle for crowding-in other sources].
-- The challenges of developing infrastructure in Nigeria include limited long-term financing; comparatively
higher risk and maturity period for infrastructure; depth of the banking industry/capital market; credit
rating; and competition with other countries. Other challenges include human & institutional capacity,
initial project development & preparation cost, project development & execution expertise, and governance
issues [regulatory/institutional framework, transparent/competitive procurement, sanctity of
contracts/partnerships, coherent long and medium- term planning, and policy consistency & stability].
-- The way forward lies in the on-going reforms among which are in the:
* Financial sector
* Power sector
* Vision 20:2020
* National Planning framework
* Regulatory framework
* PPP framework
-- The threats to watch include macro-economic stability & fiscal balance, political interference, security
concerns, and integrity of the procurement process.
-- However, these can be effectively checked with:
* Leadership commitment and support to the right policies, reforms, legal and institutional framework.
* Effective, structured and coherent planning [robust National Infrastructure Plan].
* Good governance [It is one Economy, and State and Local Governments are critical to the achievement of
our National Vision]. The obvious indicators are clear Government intention and strategy, transparent and
competitive procurement, sanctity of contracts and partnerships, policy consistency and stability.
* Project Development [coherent long and medium- term planning framework for coordinated
development across sectors, and a clear Road Map; human and institutional capacity development for
project preparation, development & competitive procurement].
* Finance [Need to invest in pace with increasing demand for services].
* The operating environment [Ensure there is a conducive operating environment to attract the right
partners, deal flow, return/risk balance, capacity in Government, transparent and competitive procedure].
Finance is a vital requirement, but not often the determinant of success or failure. A viable project will
attract funding, but an unviable one will ultimately fail, no matter how well funded. It is Partnership [not
Contracts] that will ensure sustainability.
9. Developing Indigenous Capacity in Nigerian Construction Industry by Engr. Barr. Tope Oribuyaku,
MNSE, MNIQS, Road Sector Group
-- Capacity development or capacity building focuses on understanding the obstacles that inhibit people,
Governments, international organizations, and NGOs from realizing their development goals while
enhancing the abilities that will allow them to achieve measurable and sustainable results.
-- The UNDP outlines that capacity building takes place at the levels of the individual, institution level and
society.
-- Technology keeps on evolving and operators in the B&C industry [contractors, sub-contractors,
consultants] must continually adapt to new technology.
42
-- Large-scale jobs are not awarded to indigenous contractors and consultants in Nigeria for the reason of
inadequate experience on similar jobs and other factors. If the trend continues, the industry may
perpetually be foreign-dominated.
-- Capacity of firms in the B&C industry is measured in terms of some key parameters: equipment resources,
personnel resources and financial resources. The indigenous firms are not faring well on any of these
parameters.
-- It has been observed also that contractors and professional firms alike are not meeting expectations in
the area individual capacity development; that is, the training and retraining of their staff.
-- Government has the responsibility to regulate the Nigerian B&C industry with a deliberate policy to assist
indigenous firms to acquire needed capacity to be able to compete favourably. It is unfortunate that the
industry seems to be an all-comers affair.
Why is it that there is no regulatory framework for the Nigerian construction industry?
-- A Construction Act will:
* Sanitation of the industry.
* Address the issue of foreign domination.
* Provide strategic leadership to construction industry stakeholders to stimulate sustainable growth.
* Promote the contribution of the industry in meeting national B&C demands and overall national
development.
* Determine, establish and promote best practices.
* Promote uniform application of policy with regard to the industry.
* Promote sustainable growth of the industry and enhance its role in national development.
* Promote appropriate research on any matter related to the construction industry and its development.
Conclusion
Indigenous capacity building in the Nigerian B&C industry has not been effective, at the
organisational and individual levels.
Contracting and professional firms rate low on capacity development of their staff.
The path to indigenous capacity development in the B&C industry are not well defined as the two
approaches [learn through challenging jobs & gain knowledge and experience through working in
association with foreign firms] have not been productive.
Nigerian firms cannot effectively develop their capacities if they do not lay emphasis on the training
and re-training of their staff.
The Continuous Professional Development [CPD] requirements of the professional institutions
[especially NIQS and QSRBN] to enable true capacity development in the industry.
Government should encourage indigenous contractors and consultants to be able to develop and
provide quality, uninterrupted services.
10. Public-Private Partnership Model in Infrastructure Development by Chief Michael A. Nnachi,
Managing Partner, Man Associates, Abuja
-- Public-Private Partnership (PPP) in infrastructure development involves private sector participation in any
or all of the design, construction, financing and operation phases of a public utility infrastructure, service or
both.
-- PPP involves a contract between a public sector authority and a private party, in which the private party
provides a public service or project and assumes substantial financial, technical and operational risk in the
project.
-- PPP model allows the private sector to gain and retain control over a facility for a long, pre-specified
period of time and it is made responsible for its operation before it is handed over to the public sector at
the expiry of the contracting period contained in the agreement.
-- The principal aim of PPP here is to involve the private sector with its models in the provision of public
services, shifting the role of the public sector [Government, etc.] from owner and provider to purchaser
and guardian of public interest.
-- In Nigeria, where re-current and travel expenditure budget is thrice the capital budget, we need to
embrace PPP.
-- The choice of PPP is inevitable:
43
* weak infrastructure is the single most important factor in Nigeria’s quest for enhanced firm level
competitiveness
* expanding resource gap of Governments informs the essence of alternative funding for infrastructure
development
* properly managed, PPP will deliver real value for money
* PPP will ease corruption in infrastructure delivery
-- PPP Models in practice include Service contracts; Management contracts; Lease; Build Operate and
Transfer; and Concessions. Within this framework, there are Build-and-Transfer, Build-Lease-Transfer,
Build-Operate-Transfer, Build-Own-Operate-Transfer, Build-Own-Operate, Build-Operate-Share-Transfer,
and Build-Own-Operate-Share-Transfer.
-- Towards meaningful PPP infrastructure development contributions to Vision 20:2020,Government of
Nigeria must ensure the following:
* Protect officers who take the initiative on PPP
* Align the economic interests of all stakeholders.
* Define PPP projects on a holistic basis.
* Induct the private sector as partners.
* Encourage plurality of pro-active approaches.
* Pre-qualification, bidding, and procurement procedures need to be standardized.
* Maintaining transparency is paramount.
* Public sector reforms are crucial.
* Public sector capacity to execute PPPs must be boosted rapidly.
* Project development and structuring facilities must be provided [competent consultants, solid
contractual documentation to avoid cost-overrun and claims, etc.].
* Establish Infrastructure Development Bank for ease-of-access to funds by private sector.
Conclusion
Developing and developed countries need to increase their investments in infrastructure
development.
PPP model can enhance the long-term viability of the investments, increase the number of
bankable projects, attract more investments and reduce backlash from failures.
Government needs to be attuned to the key concerns and risk perceptions of the private sector and
international best practices for development of policies and frameworks that facilitate PPPs.
The private sector must welcome steps towards developing an effective regulatory framework that
would delineate roles Government/regulators/utilities, harmonize procedures and policies, and
enhance public accountability.
The benefits of PPPs in provision of infrastructure services [including improved efficiency and
effectiveness, improved value for money, new investments, acceleration of infrastructure provision
and greater innovation] render them acceptable as tools for sustainable economic growth.
11. Construction: A Vehicle for Achieving the Millennium Development Goals by Mallam Lawal Aboki,
MNIQS, MDG Office, Abuja
-- The MDGs are 8 objectives adopted by the Millennium Declaration of 2000, which committed the world
to the reduction of poverty and the improvement of human development indices by 2015:
• Reduce poverty by 50%.
• Achieve quality universal primary education.
• Empower women and achieve gender equality.
• Address child mortality.
• Reduce maternal mortality.
• Reverse the trends in HIV/AIDS, Malaria, Tuberculosis and other diseases.
• Ensure environmental sustainability.
• Develop a global partnership in Aid, Trade and Debt issues.
-- Opportunities for the B&C industry within the framework of the MDGs, include those in:
* Environment
* Housing
* Transportation Infrastructure
44
* Education
* Health
* Energy
* Agriculture.
12. Impetus to National Development: Role of the Nigerian Construction Industry by Dr. Yakubu Ibrahim,
Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University, Bauchi
-- Amongst Nigerians, discussions on Nigeria’s progress in development tend to elicit disparaging remarks
on the nation’s past efforts and mocking scepticism at prospective endeavours aimed at moving this
potentially great nation forward.
-- Development is a multi-dimensional process involving major changes in social structures, popular
attitudes, and national institutions as well as the acceleration of economic growth. Development must have
at least three objectives:
* increase the availability and widen the distribution of basic life-sustaining goods such as food, shelter,
health, and security.
* raise standards of living [higher incomes, more jobs, better education, greater attention to cultural and
human values].
* expand the range of economic and social choices available to individuals and nations.
-- The most striking feature of the global economy is its extreme contrasts.
-- Underdevelopment as a Coordination Failure: The important point is not that people keep doing things
inefficiently, which is not very surprising. The deeper point is that people keep doing things inefficiently
because it is rational to keep doing them, and it will remain rational as long as others keep doing inefficient
things.
-- There is a direct relationship between the output of construction products and the GDP. The B&C sector
contributes to national development through employment, linkages to manufacturing, oil & gas and solid
minerals sectors.
-- Strategies for developing the B&C industry include
* Role of government as a client.
* Monetary policy.
* Taxation.
* Fiscal policy.
13. Public Procurement Act: A Vehicle for Accountability and Value-for-Money in Construction and
Building by Ifeanyi T. Anago, FNIQS, Ifeanyi Anago & Partners
-- The Public Procurement Act 2007 created the National Council on Public Procurement and the Bureau of
Public Procurement to regulate public procurement activities in Nigeria.
-- The fundamental principles for procurement as provided in the Act include:
• Procurement planning supported by prior budgetary appropriations.
• Open competitive bidding in a manner that ensures transparency, equity, accountability and compliance
with the Act and relevant regulations.
• Value for money and fitness for purpose.
• Promotion of competition, economy and efficiency.
-- Approving authority to conduct public procurement are Parastatals Tenders Board and Ministerial
Tenders Board.
-- Except as provided by the Act, procurement is conducted primarily by open competitive bidding.
-- The Act accords with best practices anywhere in the world.
-- The Act could well constitute a vehicle for public accountability and value-for-money in B&C, if its
provisions are comprehensively implemented in spirit and to the letter. To achieve its potentials requires
the fullest buy-in at the highest level of executive power.
-- The BPP must continue its current insistence that business is longer as usual; and invoke the full sanctions
as provided in the Act.
-- Government has a diamond opportunity to re-engineer Nigeria in a new direction and ensure that every
Naira spent by MDAs is accountable. This calls for men of honour and high integrity to drive the process.
45
-- Change does not come easy. Then US President, John Kennedy once said: “The change we envisage may
not happen in the 1st 100 days or 1,000 days or indeed in the entire life of this administration. But by all
means, let us begin”. That call to begin remains timeless. We have already begun, but we need to advance.
14. Concessioning as an Infrastructure Development Model: Benefits & Challenges by Alhaji Ahmad
Abubakar, Integrated Facility Management Services
-- Concession is when a private company enters into an agreement with a Government to have the
exclusive right to operate, maintain and carry out investment in a public facility for a given number of
years.
-- The Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission [ICRC] Act 2005 defines Concessions as PPPs.
-- The traditional budgetary allocation for infrastructure development has proved inadequate in meeting
the infrastructure needs of the country. There is, therefore, a dire need for alternatives.
-- Empirical evidence on relationship between infrastructure and economic development shows that
efficient infrastructure creates employment, develops human capital, promotes local and foreign
investment, raises standards of living, and improves access to critical services.
Developing countries need to strengthen and expand dramatically their physical, economic and social
infrastructure.
-- Nigeria is in dire need of infrastructure development to fast-track the advancement of its economy from
an emerging market to a developed one as per Vision 20:2020.
-- Concessions/PPPs provide opportunities for Quantity Surveyors
-- Challenges to effective development of concessions in Nigeria include:
* Lack of harmony in existing regulatory bodies.
* Huge capital outlay.
* Short-term expectations.
* Policy inconsistency.
-- Delays associated with securing land titles and other land administration issues.
* Unavailability of information and data from relevant Government agencies.
* Inadequate human capacity.
-- Low level of confidence by the generality of people on the Scheme.
-- Inadequate Knowledge and Understanding of the Requirements of the Scheme.
-- The major merits of concessions/PPPs include:
* Maximum use of each sector’s strengths
* Reduce public capital investments
* Reduce development risks
* Mobilize excess or underutilized assets
* Improve efficiency/quicker completion period
* Better environmental compliance
* Improve service to the community
* Improve cost-effectiveness
* Share resources
* Share/allocate risks
* Mutual rewards
* Provide alternative financing options
* Contribute to overall economic growth and development
* Boost the country’s credibility
* Take advantage of private sector know-how and skills
* Improve economic efficiency in operating performance and use of capital investment.
-- The requirements for successful concessions delivery in Nigeria include the institution of State and Local
Government PPP policy; State infrastructure plan; and Office for Management of PPP projects in States and
LGAs.
-- In the same vein, the necessary conditions for successful PPPs include:
* strong political and statutory Environment.
* political and effective leadership in support of the PPPs, a strong policy statement [backed by political
leaders and top administrative officials] and a strong will to change the system.
46
* transparent procurement system.
* transparent system that enables open/fair competition in the selection of partners for each project.

2011 Quantity Surveying Assembly and Colloquium
Quantity Surveying and the Anti-Corruption Crusade:
Achieving Value-For-Money in Project Cost in Nigeria
Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre, Abuja
Attendance: The Colloquium attracted over 500 participants and was declared open by the Honourable
Minister of Lands, Housing & Urban Development, Ms. Amal Pepple, CFR [represented by Surv. Emma
Ogbile, Permanent Secretary in the Ministry].
Welcome Address by Mallam Husaini A. Dikko, PPNIQS, FNIQS, RQS; President, QSRBN
-- Corruption the biggest culprit militating against Nigeria’s development. The cost of doing business in
Nigeria is very high, ostensibly as a result of corruption. This is unacceptable!
-- Given that a huge percentage of the capital budgets of both the Federal and State governments go to the
building and construction sector, the war against corruption should rightly beam its searchlight on this
sector.
-- We need a paradigm-shift from “Total Project Cost” to “Real Project Cost”, which is driven by the
objective of Achieving Value-for-Money.
-- This event is in collaboration with the NIQS to underscore the primacy of the pursuit of value-for-money
as a national culture and in the achievement ofthe Transformation Agenda of the Jonathan Administration
with regard to the war against corruption. Quantity surveying is an Anti-Corruption actor in a graft-ridden
socio-economic milieu as we have in Nigeria today.
-- Corruption must be fought holistically, using strong institutions and structures. Systems and procedures,
rules and regulations designed to fight corruption in the construction sector as in other sectors must be
robust and elegant.
-- The ICPC, EFCC, BPP and others do not have to look far to see glaring evidence of corruption. Areas in
focus include the continued allocation of revenue to LGAs without democratically elected Governments;
road and highway project costs that have no standard rates, inflated construction projects handled by
multi-national Joint Venture partners [especially in the oil & gas sector], etc.
-- The Board and NIQS can collaborate with these agencies to achieve value-for-money in these project
costs. What is needed is the enabling environment by Government.
-- I thank HE, the Senate President, Honourable Ministers, Chairman of ICPC and other special guests for
finding time to honour us at this programme.
Goodwill Message by Mr. Agele J. Alufohai, FNIQS, RQS; President, NIQS/Vice-President, QSRBN
-- Most of our yearning for progress and development takes the shape of bricks and mortar, concrete and
cement, steel and wood [that is, roads, schools, airports, social housing, bridges and so on]. These are
social and economic infrastructure which determine how competitive or productive our economy will be,
the number of unemployed Nigerians that will get means of livelihoods and the quality of life of those
employed and of those who depend on them [how many of them will be able to eat three good meals a
day, the quality of healthcare they can afford, etc.]
-- We have to close our huge infrastructure gap in the direction of national transformation. National
transformation will remain only a dream if we continue to have a “Nigerian price”: a derisive term in
international construction circles alluding to the significantly higher prices of Nigerian projects.
-- We can start achieving prices that promote growth and social equity when our Governments entrust cost
and procurement management to professionals that are trained, qualified and licensed to do it -- Quantity
Surveyors.
-- We fully endorse Government’s PPP policy; but they require even greater engagement of quantity
surveyors as cost management is essential to project design. Efficient project and procurement cost
management occurs in the broader context of economic policies that promote free enterprise, fair
competition and transparent accessing of opportunities.
56
-- I call on the Minister of Lands, Housing & Urban Development, relevant Committees in the Senate and
House of Representatives as well as our dear PresidentGoodluck Jonathan to take steps to eradicate
encumbrances on free enterprise and productive efficient exchange of goods such as the Land Use Act.
-- The Government also needs to urgently restructure the operations of its Housing Sector Agencies and
make them focus exclusively on aiding the emergence of capable and well-resourced private construction
companies rather than channelling scarce government resources to so-called PPPs that procure houses that
only the well-off middle classes can afford.
-- National transformation starts with changing the way we think.
Goodwill Messageby Mr. Segun Ajanikoko, President, Association of Professional Bodies of Nigeria
[APBN]
-- The professions in general must fight corruption.
-- As the keeper/controller of costs, Quantity Surveyors need to start a new culture, which must be in tune
with international standards.
-- There must also be a paradigm shift, for the intrinsic value of a nation must start with integrity.
-- APBN will always support you.
Address by Honourable Attorney-General of the Federation/Minister of Justice, Mr. Mohammed Bello
Adoke, SAN
-- The theme of this Assembly and Colloquium is both timely and potentially, very educative. It
demonstrates in a graphic sense that the battle is not the exclusive preserve of law enforcement agencies
but can also benefit from the input of professionals in different sectors.
-- The malaise of corruption in our society will be drastically reduced if every sector takes the initiative to
conduct its own self-assessment and house-cleaning exercise, as you have done.
-- Quantity Surveyors bear a great responsibility in driving our national desire to achieve a more
transparent and accountable society; especially in the public procurement process.
-- President Goodluck Jonathan’s Transformation Agenda is hinged on the provision of critical infrastructure
to the teeming Nigerian masses, among other anchors. The key to achieving sustainable development for
our country lies in ensuring that available resources are utilized in a manner that maximizes benefits to all.
-- Quantity Surveyorshave a golden opportunity to contribute to this agenda through the diligent and
transparent discharge of their duties, through a refusal to deliberately impoverish the Nigerian State by
collaborating with other persons to inflate projects, reduce value and sabotage our national aspirations for
development.
-- We stand ready to collaborate with you in fine-tuning and implementing proposals that may arise out of
your deliberations on matters of statutory initiatives and amendments to existing laws and regulations to
continually improve our procurement processes.
-- The key elements in engaging professional firms for projects have become ‘competence’ and ‘diligence’,
and not necessarily the nationality. As access to credit and resources shrink globally, the quest to achieve
higher rates of value-for-money is now uppermost in the calculations of investors and Governments alike.
-- Nigerian professionals must rise to these new challenges. This is more imperative in the light of the
Federal Government’s current promotion of Public-Private-Partnerships (PPPs) as an alternative
procurement process.
-- I am convinced that with the appropriate training, exposure, experience and positive linkages with
partners in other countries, we can continue to produce Quantity Surveyors who can cope with the
projected growth of the Nigerian economy in the immediate future.
Opening Remarks by Honourable Minister of Lands, Housing & Urban Development, Ms. Amal Pepple,
CFR [represented by Surv. Emma Ogbile, Permanent Secretary]
-- I feel proud to associate with members of your esteemed profession due to your dogged concern for
financial probity and the need to achieve value-for-money in the conceptualization, planning and execution
of projects.
-- Quantity Surveyors, by their training and professional experience, could play a significant role in the anticorruption crusade and complement the efforts of the anti-corruption agencies.
57
-- I assure you that the current Administration would welcome any useful suggestions on how best we can
tackle corruption in project costing, budgeting and implementation without prejudice to the Public
Procurement Act.
The main presentations and their highlights include:
1. Institutional Framework for Fighting Corruption in Nigeria: Need for Executive, Legislative and Judicial
Commitment by Abiodun Adebanjo, Research Officer, EFCC Training And Research Institute
-- The fight against corruption is a collective one. In countries like Hong Kong and China where the
government has effectively curtailed corruption, the people are important partners in the crusade. This
invitation extended to EFCC is apt, and an indication that Nigeria will sooncontain and curtail this monster
that has become our “greatest albatross” to economic development and progress.
-- Nigeria is regarded as “corrupt” due to the prevalence of:
* Fraud
* Money laundering
* Drug trafficking
* Missing official files and documents
* Conspiracy, aiding and abetting offence
* Embezzlement, g. Bribery
* Illegal political party financing
* Favouritism
* Conflict of interest
* Extortion
* Abuse of discretion
* Abuse of (public) power for private gain
* Tax evasion by the rich and powerful
* Weak laws and weak law enforcement
* Unstable, prolonged crisis-ridden political,educational, economic and social order
* High incidence of poverty in the midst of plenty.
-- The major source of corruption in Nigeria is the public sector, and it permeates all facets of the society.
The failure of governance at the federal, state and local levels to tackle the issue of corruption is the bane
of the country’s development.
-- The banking sector saga which the country is still groaning under is an example of how corruption in the
private sector can disrupt the economy. Examples include excessively high level of non-performing loans
attributable to poor corporate governance practices, lax credit administration processes and the absence or
non-adherence to credit risk management practices.
--The 1999 Constitution contains several provisions to curb the abuse of power, combat corruption, and
subject the Government to accountability and transparency. However, it must be noted that some of the
constitutional provisions have had the effect of protecting some public official from any civil proceedings or
criminal prosecution relating to acts or practice of corruption [such as the immunity clause].
-- The EFCC was established to investigate and enforce all laws against economic and financial crimes in all
their ramifications. These includeadvance fee fraud, money laundering, counterfeiting, illegal charge
transfers, futures market fraud, fraudulent encashment of negotiable instruments, computer credit card
fraud, and contract scam’.
-- The EFCC has achieved some degree of success, but the challenges confronting its operations are wideranging:
* Accusatorial system of criminal justice administration as opposed to the inquisitorial system.
* Immunity clause [Section 308 of the 1999 Constitution].
* Possible abuse of power by the Attorney General of the Federation,
* Lack of political will to enforce anti-corruption laws.
-- There is need for legislative, judicial and executive commitments; if the fight against corruption is to be
won in Nigeria. If the executive grant the request special courts to try corruption cases this will help solve
the problem of the slow judicial process in prosecuting corruption cases. Also, if the executive will give the
anti-corruption agencies all the funds they need and grant their request for recruiting more staff; it will aid
58
the fight againstcorruption. Executive commitment will also imply that the executive give the anticorruption agencies a free hand to run their affairs.
-- If there is legislative commitment, there will be the enactment of stringent punishment (through
legislations) on corruption issues.
-- If there is judicial commitment, the judiciary will give heavier sentences to money laundering and official
corruption, than what is obtainable. Judicial commitment will make for more stringent punishment for
those who commit more grievous offences like economic crimes.
2. Taxation Issues in Construction Project Development and Management by Professor A. S. Mikailu,
Department of Accounting, Usman Dan Fodio University, Sokoto
-- Under the Nigerian tax system, the following taxes, with substantial implication for corporate operations,
fall within the jurisdiction of the Federal Government:
•
Company income tax
•
Withholding tax of companies
•
Petroleum profit tax
•
VAT
•
Education tax
•
Capital gains tax on Abuja residents and corporate bodies
•
Stamp duties involving corporate entities.
-- Construction tax is usually traceable to the point of contract award or construction activity normally
carried out by a contractor.
-- The efficiency of a tax system would be measured on the basis of:
•
overall ratio of tax revenue to GDP over a given period of time.
•
degree of tax incentives to boost domestic production and attract Foreign Direct Investment [FDI].
•
size of the informal sector of the economy.
-- In general, Nigeria’s tax system is dominated by returns from the sale of crude oil. Other prominent tax
items includepersonal income tax, company income tax, VAT, education tax, capital gains tax, and customs
& excise duties.
-- Taxation is designed to raise adequate revenue to meet public expenditure budgetary targets; reduce
income inequality through an optimal system of personal and corporate income taxes; discourage the
production, importation, or consumption of harmful products such as tobacco, through an optional system
of trade taxes and VAT; and ensure the attainment of allocative efficiency.
-- Some of the issues associated with the management of taxation, especially as it affects construction
project development, include:
* Disclosure of corporate tax returns
* Corporate governance
* Tax risks
* Multiple-Taxation.
Reform of the Tax System: Some Recommendations
-- To reform/invigorate the tax system and reduce the associated risk elements, the level or capacity of the
economy must constantly be assessed to facilitate the attainment of the goals of the reform.
-- The state of construction project development and management in Nigeria today leaves much to be
desired, especially in the public sector.
-- The national tax regime must be rendered investment-friendly andwith a workable strategic focus on
project planning and development; if the B&C sector is to receive significant boost..
3. Role of Statistics & Cost Data in the Anti-Graft Crusade by Sir Henry C. Eteama, Consultant
Statistician/Development Economist
-- The most organized way of confronting graft specifically and corruption in general culminated in the
establishment of strategic institutions by law.
-- Statistics is a field of study that entails the scientific process of orderly collection, compilation, analysis
and proper use of numerical and non-numerical data for policy design, programme development, project
implementation, monitoring and evaluation.
59
-- Statistics is one of the major stools for development of knowledge in all fields such as Cost Data which is
the focus of Quantity Surveyors. This entails such variables as price statistics of a variety of items involved
in the B&C sector.
-- The various agencies should adopt a statistical culture as the inevitable way of effective corporate
management principle in fighting corrupt practices. The prerequisites for statistics to play effective role in
this direction include:
* design a strategic framework for tracking direction and magnitude of gratification in Nigeria’s B&C sector.
* adopta robust Statistical Compendium of terms/concepts/definitions/methodologies for effective
scientific data collection on notifiable cases of corrupt practices and related offences.
* create a functional National Consultative Committee on corruption to include key stakeholders.
* develop a National Data Centre and Data Base of corrupt practices and related offences in the ICPC and
links to related agencies.
* ensure that Local Area Network (LAN) and Wide Area Network (WAN) are developed among these
establishments to ensure real-time on-line data sharing and transmission.
* develop strong, well-funded and staffed Statistics Division [backed by intensive ICT applications] in these
agencies and provision of adequate funding and human capacity building as deliberate policy.
* firmExecutive commitment to a statistical culture on ensuring regular data production/usage/research on
corrupt practices, etc.
-- The benefits of a strong statistical content in the anti-graft crusade include:
* Nigeria should be able to quantify the direction and magnitude of corruption.
* Diverse dimensions of corrupt practices would be tracked.
* Factors influencing corrupt practices will be unveiled.
* Seasonal and conditional factors can be tracked.
* Provide pre-emptive measures against incidence of corruption.
* Provide veritable information on how to re-engineer corporate systems and processes of combating
gratification in specific sectors, given groups or location.
* Provide value-for-money by ensuring that the right targets are focused on rather than guess-work with
inherent risks and wastages.
Some of the key cost data required on regular basis for the B&C sector will include:
* Retail prices of building materials.
* Hire, sales, rent, and lease prices of B&C sector equipment and machinery.
* Categorized fees for professionals in the sector.
* Wholesale prices and producer prices.
* Consumer price Index and wholesale price index.
* Import prices [CIF] and Export prices [FOB].
-- Archiving value-for-money in project costing using cost data is critical for monitoring & evaluation (M&E)
of projects.
-- Statistical information should be harnessed, exploited and traded upon to ensure optimal use in tackling
the hydra-headed monster, called corruption.
4. Public Procurement Act as an Anti-corruption Toolby Engr. Emeka M. Ezeh, FNSE, DG, BPP
-- The Public Procurement Act [PPA] put Nigeria in the league of countries with legislation on how public
funds should be expended
-- The BPP is responsible for monitoring and oversight of public procurement and practices by regulating,
setting standards and developing the legal framework and professional capacity for procurement in Nigeria
and for other related matters.
-- The core objectives are:
Economy & Efficiency
Competition – providing a level playing ground for all bidders
Value-for-Money
Transparency.
-- In order to achieve these core objectives, 9 essential steps are to be followed:
•
Efficient Procurement Plan Driven by Needs Assessment
•
Appropriation
60
•
Advertisements
•
Transparent Pre-qualification
•
Bid Submission
•
Bid Opening
•
Bid Evaluation [Technical and Financial]
•
Tender Board/FEC Approval
•
Contract Execution.
-- It has been observed that significant corruption can occur at any stage in a contract/project life-cycle.
These include stages of Project Selection, Planning/Design Approvals, Tendering, Technical Prequalification, Financial Bid Evaluation, and Execution.
-- BPP carries out regular and ad-hoc procurement audits of MDAs to monitor compliance with the
provisions of the PPA. Infractions observed are referred to EFCC and ICPC for further investigation and
prosecution.
-- Some of the challenges of implementing the PPA are reflected in:
•
Political Interference and Corruption
•
Political Authorization
•
Legislative Support
•
Institutional Resistance
•
Skill and Competence Gaps
•
Capacity Building for procurement officers and Civil Society Organizations
•
Compliance monitoring by other stakeholders [e.g. Civil Society/NGOs/Professional Bodies]
•
Late Budget Approval and slow commencement of procurement processes
•
12-month Budget cycle vis-a-vis 3-5 year project life-span
•
Poor project execution and supervision
•
Lack of integrity.
-- The way forward would incorporate:
•
De-politicize procurement processes
•
Generate stakeholders’ buy-in
•
Render the PPA a Federal Law and compel all State and Local Governments to comply
•
Intensify professional training of procurement officers to close competence gaps and strengthen
institutional capacity
•
Boost capacity building programmes for MDAs, NGOs, Civil Society organizations, professional
bodies and the general public
•
National Assembly to accelerate annual budget approval process
•
Budgets to recognize and give priority to on-going and long-term projects
•
Sustain procurement and compliance audits for all MDAs and recommend sanctions for
contravention of the Act
•
Sustain field monitoring and evaluation of ongoing projects.
5. Changing Roles of the Quantity Surveyor in National Development by Chief Dr. Ejike Bedford Anunike,
Ph.D., MNIQS, RQS, KSC
-- The QS as a professional cost expert, is a major player in the B&C sector. Alas, due to high incidence and
the endemic nature of corruption in the Nigerian system, costs are being abused fragrantly through
contract scams, etc.
-- The profession of quantity surveying developed during the 19th Century from the early “measurer”, a
specialist tradesman who prepared standardized schedules for a building project in which all the materials,
labour and the like were quantified and against which competing tenders could be made [Wikipedia,
2011a].
-- Towards the end of the 20th century and with construction projects becoming more complex and
diversified, the roles of the QS expanded to include more specialist areas of value, risk, facility and project
managements and new areas of commercial concerns.
-- The typical roles of the QS include:
•
Assisting in establishing client’s requirements and budgets and undertaking feasibility studies.
61
•
Undertaking costs analyses for new projects, repair and maintenance works.
•
Advising on procurement strategy.
•
Preparing tender and contract documents, including BOQ.
•
Preparing and analyzing costing for tender.
•
Managing costs on a wide variety of projects and structures, both new and existing.
•
Providing advice on contract claims and legal issues.
•
Producing financial and progress reports.
•
Valuing work in progress and at completion including final accounts.
•
Preparing specifications when required to do so
•
Resolving disputes.
-- The emerging roles of the QS in the new dispensation include:
* Value management
* Project management
* Contracting
* Risk Management
* Whole-life costing or life-cycle costing
* Facilities management
* Construction cost auditing
* Dispute resolution
* Valuation for insurance
* Research
* Estimation
* Marketing.
-- A critical appraisal of the roles and mandate of the three key anti-corruption agencies in the B&C sector
[ICPC, EFCC, BPP] reveals the essential need for their close partnerships with quantity surveyors. Their
functions and roles clearly fall under the purview of the expert and professional knowledge of the QS.
-- The enormous new and emerging roles of the QS are much more technical than the traditional and
involve greater scientific analyses. Many also border on management, law, economics, estate management,
accounting, etc.
-- It behoves the QS to acquire relevant knowledge and competencies in these new spheres of service in
order to cope with incursions and competition.
-- Recommendations for effective discharge of QS functions in the new dispensation include:
* A more suitable name to capture most of the traditional, current and future roles of the QS should be
adopted to enhance the appreciation of the profession by the public, its marketing and its eventual
acceptability.
* The QS in Nigeria (like in Britain) should lead the vanguard of change in the sector, re-position
themselves, assume leadership roles, delve into new areas and jostle for jobs and positions.
* The QS should sharpen their competencies in leadership, management, wider knowledge base,
particularly in the fields housing the new roles. Further education, in-service training, research, workshops
and seminars offer opportunities, while continuing professional development programmes should be
sustained by the NIQS and QSRBN.
* The NIQS should sponsor research into strategies for improving professional service delivery in the new
dispensation.
6. Project Monitoring and Evaluation as Tools for Achieving Value-for-Money by Isaac Sobotie, MNIQS
-- Value is a complex entity made up of scarcity, utility, costs of production, worth in use, value in exchange
and marginal utility. It is influenced by the conditions of supply and demand.
-- Value is a comparative term expressing the worth of an item or commodity, usually in the context of
other similar or comparable items. Cheapness in itself is of no virtue.
Value for money is an easy concept to understand but difficult to explain. It is the start of the process of
added value. It is the principle of doing more with less – a feature that has become common in all walks of
life.
62
-- Projects are implemented to meet the objectives of the promoter and the project stakeholders. Primary
objectives are usually measured in terms of time, cost and quality:
Early completion? Time is dominant
•
•
Minimum cost development? Time + quality sacrificed
•
Ultimate quality required? Cost + time secondary issues
-- Added valuedescribes the contribution a process makes to the development of its products/final output.
It is defined by the satisfaction of the customer/client and not the producer.
-- A 1998 Report from the Quantity Surveyors Division of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors
described value as “a capability provided to a customer at the right time and at an appropriate price, as
defined by the customer”.
-- Monitoring is the systematic collection and analysis of information as a project progresses – aimed at
improving the efficiency and effectiveness of a project. It is based on targets set and activities planned
during the planning phases of work. It helps to keep the work on track, and can let management know
when things are going wrong.
-- Evaluation is the comparison of actual project impacts against the agreed strategic plans.
-- Monitoring and Evaluation focus on:
•
Efficiency
•
Effectiveness
•
Impact
-- Monitoring and evaluation can:
•
Help you identify problems and their causes
•
Suggest possible solutions to problems
•
Raise questions about assumptions and strategy
•
Push you to reflect on where you are going and how you are getting there
•
Provide you with information and insight
•
Encourage you to act on the information and insight
•
Increase the likelihood that you will make a positive development difference.
-- The evaluation of work in progress has been absorbed into the much wider consideration of contract
placing and management, in which the quantity surveyor is able to influence some of the parameters by
which the value of work is determined.
-- There is the need for the quantity surveyors to imbibe and foster the practice of value management in
the professional service rendered to their clients.
-- Value managementdescribes the entire philosophy and range of techniques.
-- Value planningis carried out in the early part of a project prior to the decision to build or at briefing or
outline design stage.
-- Value engineeringdescribes value techniques adopted during the detailed design stages and construction
stages when compacted designs or elements of the design will be available for study.
-- Value analysisdescribes value techniques carried out on completion of a project.
-- It is desirable that the QSRBN, NIQS and the tertiary institutions offering quantity surveying courses, fund
research into this new area of study & practice and ensure consulting practices to include it as part of their
professional services.
7. Project Cost Auditing as a Tool for Earned-ValueManagement by Mr. Godwin Arah, ARICS, ANIQS,
MCIOB, MNIOB, MBIM, MNIM, RQS
-- The role of the Auditor is to verify and ascertain whether any corrupt practice has taken place.
-- Due to the huge sums spent on construction projects and their nature, they are usually targets for
corrupt practices especially knowing that there are no audits conducted to determine whether there were
corrupt practices in their execution except in exceptional cases where probe panels are set up on ad-hoc
basis for political or other reasons.
-- There is the express need for the engagement of the services of a construction cost expert on all
construction projects to ensure that the clients obtain the best value for their money. This will introduce
budgetary discipline if people in authority realize that their illegal behaviour will be discovered and
punished.
63
-- If Construction Cost Auditing Report is established as finality for financial/cost transactions on all
construction projects, then all those involved in the preparation and execution of such projects will become
more professional in carrying out their duties; knowing that a third party will review their decisions and
that any irregularities will be sanctioned.
-- Considering the damage corruption is inflicting on our collective earned values, it is recommended that
PROJECT COST AUDITING be made mandatory [by law] on all construction projects executed in Nigeria.
-- Governments at Federal, State and Local levels, considering their declarations of intent to fight
corruption, should embrace Project Cost Auditing as a tool for fighting corruption using construction
projects as a platform.
-- So far, Project Cost Auditing has been a sadly neglected role of the Quantity Surveyor in fighting
corruption.A detailed examination of our procurement system reveals a weakness in the cost monitoring
and auditing aspects. The budgeting, monitoring and the auditing aspects of our procurement system in the
B&C sector are traditional roles and responsibilities of the Quantity Surveyor.
-- The QSRBN and NIQS are enjoined to pursue the enactment of legislation that should make a Project Cost
Auditor’s Report the final document that confirms the ultimate cost of any construction project and for the
recognition of the Quantity Surveyor as being responsibile for preparing Project Cost Audit Reports in
Nigeria.
8. High Costs of Construction Projects in Nigeria: Challenges & Solutions by Dr. Ahmed Doko Ibrahim,
MNIQS, MAPM, MCIOB, MSCIARB,Department of Quantity Surveying, ABU, Zaria
-- Nigeria, the most populous country in Africa and ninth in the world, unarguably has all the potential of
becoming the hub of B&C business within the African continent. Going by the latest 10-year forecast by the
Global Construction Perspectives and Oxford Economics, Nigerian Construction Industry [NCI] is still
regarded as one of the fastest-growing in the world;despite the prevailing global economic recession.
-- The way billions of Naira are mentioned in construction project values in Nigeria has become so banal
that soon, they are likely to escalate to trillions of Naira, even though the values do not appear realistic visavis the value-added to the society through contracts in question.
-- The challenges of high costs of construction in Nigeria include:
* Wrong method of estimation
* Government policies
* Political Interference
* Inadequate project planning
* Design Changes
* Cost of materials
* Inadequate production of raw materials by the country
* Wastage of materials
* Transportation cost
* Reliance on Foreign Companies for Public Projects
* Effects of weather
* Supplier manipulation
* Contractors’ cartel
* Relationship between management and labour
* Lack of coordination between designers and contractors
* Poor Financial control on site
* Duration of contract
* Equipment cost
* Mode of financing bonds and payments
-- Suggested solutions to high cost of construction in Nigeria include:
* application of a value engineering concept, which aims at a careful analysis of each function and the
elimination or modification of anything that adds to the project cost without adding to its functional
capabilities.
* provide comprehensive and error-free designs and specifications to avoid misinterpretations by the
estimator or delay due to missing details.
64
* optimisation of design/specification, delivery and site wastes through the formulation and
implementation of effective material policy and material management.
* elimination of waste at professional and trade practice levels.
* firm establishment of requirements and features of the project at the onset.
* Government should apply best practices during infrastructural procurement by engaging qualified and
registered indigenous consultants for all technical projects.
* stop the indiscriminate dumping of inferior and fake building materials on our markets.
* harmonisation and proper enforcement of building regulations across the country.
* independent consultants should be allowed to handle tender analysis and make recommendations for
the award of contracts to ward off extraneous influence.
* engagement of qualified cost management experts in the conception and implementation of contracts.
* Government should ensure that relevant construction materials, which the country is heavily blessed
with, are appropriately harnessed for the country‘s use.
* efficient time management through proper resource planning, duration estimation and schedule
development and control.
* conduct research to establish reliable cost information system and realistic labour outputs.
9. State of QS Practice in Nigeria by Alhaji Abdulkadir M. Kawu, PPNIQS, FNIQS
-- Quantity Surveyors arrived into our construction system over 40 years ago. Early students in this
profession were largely from Lagos area.
-- The most important challenge to the Quantity Surveyor is his ‘personality complex’. Majority of our
colleagues in project team are seen as ‘inferior’ team members. Self-assertion is required of us.
-- Another challenge is the Quantity Surveyors involvement in depleting ‘project fund’ because of the
absolute confidence others in the team have in him.
-- The practice and success of a Quantity Surveyor are determined by the standard of his professionalism
and ethics. Good practices do not complain of lack of patronage. The most effective advert is to satisfy your
present client.
10. Challenges to Efficient Service Delivery by Quantity Surveyors by Dr. S. O. Oyediran, MNIQS, RQS;
HOD, QS, UniLag
Concept of professional services delivery
-- Quantity Surveying is knowledge based profession. The professional acquires and accumulates valuable
knowledge or capability.
-- The construction industry is essentially a service industry. The services are heterogeneous, intangible,
inseparable and perishable.
-- QS are known to provide a wide range of services, including: “preliminary cost advice, cost planning,
advice on contract procedures and types of contract, advice on methods of obtaining tenders, advice on
procedures for selecting contractors, preparation of tendering documents, adjudication and negotiation of
tenders, periodic financial statements, valuation of work in progress for advance payment, preparation and
settlement of final accounts and examination and settlement of claims”.
-- Today, the QS is being increasingly involved beyond the traditional building works.
-- Competence is the hallmark of professionalism. It is the ability to deploy knowledge and skills to solve
problems.
-- Westcott (2003)noted eight critical changes in the profession as follows:
1. The closing gap between the traditional consultancy and contracting services.
2. Moving away from services based on production of bills of quantities to cost planning and cost
management.
3. IT and computer-aided design have provided opportunities for improving the added value of QS services
rather than computer-aided measurement making QSs redundant
4. Increasing appointment of QSs as lead consultants by those clients who are primarily driven by strict
time and cost-constraints and who have become frustrated by the architect’s inability to appreciate and
manage these.
5. Computerisation, and particularly the adoption of management information systems, has simplified and
accelerated the collection and processing of data, allowing the contractor’s QS to take a more effective role
65
in commercial management by undertaking more frequent and informative cost-value reconciliation, rather
than historic reporting.
6. Increasing provision of pro-active budget-setting services, including life-cycle costing and capital
allowances consultancy, rather than reactive pricing of architects’ drawings.
7. The changing focus from claims management to conflict avoidance through partnering, value and risk
management.
8. The increasing awareness of health and safety matters and sustainable construction issues.
-- There are threats to quality service delivery in the industry. These are socio-economic factors, industry
environment, the national ethos, technological factors and regulatory issues.
* Quackery (statutory and professional)
* Certification (educational and professional)
* Path of Commission
* Corruption
* Culture of sentiment and tribalism
* National ethos
-- To overcome the problem of corruption in the construction industry there is need to have moral rebirth.
The web of corruption is intricate. The unfortunate aspect of the fight is the insincerity in the local and
global protest against the social virus.
-- There are indeed many gaps to be filled, issues to be further characterised and articulated and road maps
to be charted if the profession is to overcome the challenges facing its ability to provide qualitative services
that will secure it a place of relevance and sustainability of commercial worth commission and prestige.
-- There is need to prioritize and concentrate financial and human resources on all aspects of the
certification and regulation of the profession. The degree to which an impartial and public accountable
body like the QSRBN rises up to this challenge to the same degree is the hope and prospect of facilitating
the qualityof human capacity to deliver the mandates of the profession.
-- There has to be strategic modification of commissioning path. As long as quantity surveyors rely
predominantly on other allied professions for commission, they are most likely to become backroom
professionals.
-- The quest for quality service delivery must be taken to the classroom where the future generation of
professionals is produced. Ethics education must be introduced, strengthened and deepened.
-- The senior practitioners and leaders in the profession must exhibit moral uprightness and hold
themselves accountable to the profession and not to their pockets and personality. It requires courage to
do self-reflection and self-cleansing. This is the greatest challenge to the quality of service provided by the
quantity surveyor.
The profession is capable of leading a revolution of value-adding services devoid of corruption and based
on deployment of certified competencies the profession is uniquely endowed with.
11. Need for Specializations/Faculties in Quantity Surveying Practice by Alhaji Murtala Aliyu, FNIQS
-- We must remain dissatisfied with any given situation if we desire change or improvement. We must keep
extending the boundaries. There must be a paradigm shift for any meaningful progress to occur.
-- The challenges we face as humans and most especially as professionals [more so in Nigeria] are daunting
and dynamic. To move forward, we must prepare to cope with the pace of human adventure and continue
to improve upon what we have on a sustainable basis.
-- The contribution of QS in maintaining sanity in our development process is not only indispensible, but
desirable considering their training, experience and location in the construction industry team.
-- Over a period, the QS became that professional with “a qualification gained following formal education,
specific training and experience that provides a set of skills that are then applied to a diverse variety of
problems predominantly relating to costs and contracts on construction projects”.
-- The QS’s traditional independent role on the construction contract team [comprising client, architect,
engineers and contractor] has given him a reputation and appreciation for fairness.
-- The need for details in a simple or complex project in an era when transparency and accountability is
sought, places a burden of responsibility squarely on the QS. The QS is best located to manage the integrity
aspect of the B&C industry.
66
-- As the B&C industry and demand on infrastructure and comfort facilities grow in sophistication and size,
and as technology keeps changing by the day, there is the need for constant review of methods and
constant revision of the way and manner we globally manage materials, labour, plant and know-how.
-- In the United Kingdom, for instance, QS present themselves as specialists in highways, municipal
infrastructure, mechanical, electrical, industrial, environmental, costing, material, marine, aviation, IT,
agriculture, procurement, insurance and so on, in addition to those specialising in Project Management.
-- If it is good for an engineering contractor to use the QS to ensure the correct claim, it should be fair on
the client to enjoy the benefit of the use of the QS in preparing his engineering contracts.
-- It is sad to note that today, apart from the public sector and some larger players in the private sector,
very few developers engage experts or are willing to pay for expertise in the conduct of their businesses.
-- Majority ofQS practices in Nigeria are small in size with low capacity and little training capability. Staff are
poorly paid with little prospects for developing, thus exposing them to desperate contractors. This poses a
great danger on the integrity of project delivery.
-- Practising firms must begin to corporatize, improve their operational capacity and explore merger
options to form larger concerns that will not only be competitive and benefit from economies of scale, but
can afford to train personnel with specific capacities.
-- Government must support this action by insisting on the use of professionals in all public and private
developments as a requirement for its approval for such development, project or programme.
-- We should review our training capability. Our first point of call should be our Universities and
Polytechnics where QS is taught. We must revise our curriculum and gradually but systematically develop
specialities in the various fields of focus.
-- The NIQS should create sections for specialised groupings within its existing statutes and structure; so
that members who acquire further training or experience in a specialised field will have additional status
after being so certified so.
-- The QSRBN should extend its support and liaise with the appropriate Government organs to promote the
process.
-- A coordinated inter-face with the global QS community will expose our professionals to international best
practices, open up new markets [especially outside our boarders], keep us on our toes and expose us to
new methods and techniques.
-- The Nigerian government has given enough cover to our domestic professionals, by passing and enacting
into law the local content act.
12. Challenges for the Quantity Surveying Profession -- Quackery and Encroachment by other
Professionals and Quacks by Dr. Yakubu Ibrahim, MNIQS, HOD, QS, ATBU of Technology, Bauchi
-- Quantity Surveyors are fully qualified members of the NIQS. They use the suffix MNIQS(corporate
members) and FNIQS (Fellow) respectively after their names. They must have attended full-time
professional education in a Polytechnic or University and must have passed the Test of Professional
Competence (TPC) of the NIQS. Before a qualified quantity surveyor could practice, he must register with
the QSRBN; after which he could add the suffix RQS(Registered Quantity Surveyor) to his name.
-- Building construction, civil and structural engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering,
petrochemicals, minerals’ extraction, production engineering, environmental economics, planning and
urban development, landscaping, interior design are areas in which the QS is equipped as a cost expert and
procurement economist.
-- Specializations of the QSinclude [NIQS, 2008]:
•
Investment appraisals
•
Cost control and post contract management
•
Project management and coordination
•
Value management, analysis and engineering
•
Risk management
•
Security management
•
Financial analysis
•
Condition surveys
•
Procurement management
•
Scheduling and planning
67
•

•
Life cycle costing
Property management
Asset management
Facilities management
Contract auditing
Estimating
--A quack is an unqualified person who claims specialized knowledge or other skills. A quack is corrupt and
is likely to indulge in fraud if involved in any B&C project.
-- The ‘other professionals’ who play consulting roles in project execution include the Architect, Civil
Engineer, Geo-technical Engineer, Mechanical Engineer and Electrical Engineer. From definitions of their
roles, they clearly have no business preparing bills of quantities, pricing bills of quantities and estimating
costs.
-- Getting rid of all types of quacks is the responsibility of everyone.
-- The thrust in fighting encroachment by other professionals should be in specializing in building
engineering services, civil engineering, heavy and industrial engineering and information technology.
-- Government has the major responsibility of evolving new policy instruments that clearly allocate roles
with matching authority in the award and execution of engineering projects. The QS should shoulder the
cost management of all capital projects, since his education and training have equipped him adequately for
this task.
-- Quackery and encroachment by other professionals are some of the challenges confronting the QS
profession today.
-- Accountability, probity and transparency in the financial management of B&C projects could be
threatened if these ills are not tackled.
-- Quackery is a criminal offence and a quack should always be prosecuted. Other professionals could plan
and design, but it is the QSwho should estimate, prepare contract documents, examine tenders,
recommend the award of contract, certify payment.
13. Tools and Needs for Quantity Surveying Education& Training by Dr. Mrs. M. Babalola, MNIQS, HOD,
QS, OAU, Ife
-- Quantity Surveying Profession is crucial to achieving a better society because its role is directly linked to
the provision of basic human needs.
-- Client’s needs and expectations keep changing everyday due to the ever-increasing level of technological
advancement, which creates more awareness on the part of the client about the activities within the B&C
industry.
-- The ability of QS professionals to meet changing clients’ needs and to grow the market for professional
services depends on the knowledge base of the profession. One way of updating and leveraging this base is
to ensure that the constituent skills, abilities and values of the profession are subjected to periodic auditing
to highlight critically important competencies.
-- It is imperative that degree programmes in QS should aim at equipping the students with the theoretical
background and practical skills to enable them evaluate analytically the cost-related issues of design and
construction. It is also necessary to provide an effective balance between education and industry training.
-- Rapid technological changes taking place in the profession and in the construction industry at large has
become increasingly essential to have well-qualified graduates who are able to meet the challenges and
increasing demands of the profession.
-- Research awareness in QS education and training is very low, especially in Nigeria. The research
conducted by the presenter had the following objectives:
* identify and assess the available training tools and facilities for QS education and training
* determine the needed training tools and facilities for QS education and training
* determine the relevance of QS training, provided by the institutions to clients and other users of QS
services.
-- The study covered 12 higher institutions in south-western Nigeria; with 56 trainers, 387 trainees, 82 QS
firms and 91 users of QS services.It was found that:
68
* basic and relevant training tools and facilities required for QS training and education of international
standards were not available. The few which had them were not adequate.
* majority of the students and lecturers did not attend academic and professional seminars and workshops
due to lack of sponsorship and funds. There were issues of lack of personal interest on the part of the
students and lack of sponsorship on the part of the lecturers.
* trainees who attend seminars and workshops for promotion purpose, did not attach the necessary
importance of this programme to human capacity development.
* Industrial Training [IT] programme is very important to training because it prepares students for B&Crelated challenges, affords them platforms for real-life B&C experiences and exposure to QS practice.
* the only academic development opportunity available to lecturers is post-graduate training, while they
enjoy less of seminar and workshop sponsorship, access to international journals, technical
visits/excursions and research grants.
* there is no collaboration between the higher institutions, international institutions and the B&C industry.
-- QS firms rated performance of QS graduates in their employment, low in cost planning, cost estimating,
tender evaluation, sub-contractor selection, interim valuation, negotiation of change orders & contractual
claims, risk & value management, expert witness/evidence, replacement cost valuation, cost analysis,
arbitration, claim & disputes resolution and negotiation, building works, building services, civil & heavy
engineering works, and client focus.
* users of QS services rate QS low in negotiation of contractual claims, general procurement advice,
contract administration, tender evaluation& sub-contractor selection, negotiation of change orders, expert
witness/evidence, interim valuation, claim & dispute resolution and negotiation for building works.
-- Training tools and facilities required for QS training and education in Nigeria are generally inadequate.
These include:
(i) Relevant and current textbooks, international and local journals
(ii) Drawings
(iii) Qualified lecturers
(iv) Visual/teaching aids, magnetic boards, projectors
(v) Computers and Internet facilities
(vi) QS software
(vii) Accommodation for studios, lecture rooms and reading rooms
(viii) Furniture
(ix) On-line teaching and correspondence courses
-- Training tools and facilities available in tertiary institutions are obsolete and not regularly
updated/upgraded.
-- The level of technical knowledge imparted and/or acquired by QS students/graduates through available
training tools and facilities is moderate for all the listed courses.
-- Recommendations for improvements in QS education and training include:
* Adequate funding for QS Departments in tertiary institutions to procure relevant, current and functional
training tools and facilities and subscribe to international and local journals.
* Adequate funding for QS Departments to sponsor staff and students to seminars, workshops and
conferences.
* Enlightenment programmes be organized for academic staff and students on the relevance of seminars,
workshops and conferences to QS training and education.
* Technical visits to and periodic work experience the industry in form of excursionsfor academic staff and
students.
* Strong and viable collaboration between the tertiary institutions and the industry.
* Sponsorship of B&C-related research by the industry.
* Sponsorship and organization of training/workshops for academic staff.

1st National Cost Reduction Summit on Achieving Value-For-Money in the
Development of Public Infrastructure
Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre, Abuja
Attendance:There were about 550 participants and the Summit was declared open by the Secretary to the
Government of the Federation, Rt. Honourable, Senator Anyim Pius Anyim, GCON
Welcome Address by Mallam Husaini A. Dikko; PPNIQS, FNIQS,RQS, President, QSRBN
-- It is often said that there is total absence of value-for-money in Nigeria’s project development
matrix.High Project cost stigmatises us as a nation and its negative impact on our national development
and well-being is very damning.
-- How did we get into this trap and what can we do to establish and operate global best practices in project
costing in Nigeria? What are we doing wrongly that we must now do right? What do we do to our attitude
to public accountability in Nigeria? What is it that makes Nigerian projects one of the costliest in the world?
-- It is only when we set our mind at achieving value-for-money that we can effectively confront the
monster of high project costs.
-- This Summit will take a holistic view of high project costs and examine its various ramifications in order to
evolve strategies to deal with the problem. Corruption; poor attitude to work; lack of planning; poor time
management; laziness; incompetence; quackery; poor training; lack of executive capacity; and the most
damning: the “Nigerian Factor” all lead to high project costs.
-- The Nigerian factor is the prism through which you can locate corruption, graft, incompetence, poor
attitude to work, lack of accountability, etc. Sustainable national development cannot be achieved when
the activities and actions of economic agents are mired in corruption and corrupt practices.
-- It is the position of the QSRBN that value-for-money should be a central issue in our public expenditure
policy. It is very common these days for public officials to drop the amount of money purportedly spent on
given projects as indices of performance.
-- Cost Auditing is a categorical imperative if we must fight the scourge of high project cost. This
regrettably is absent in the current public procurement process.
-- Anti-Corruption agencies such as the ICPC and EFCC should urgently set up Project Cost Auditing and
Monitoring Departments if they are to be effective in executing their statutory mandate. The QSRBN is
ready to partner with them in that direction.
-- This Summit is the first major attempt by any professional body to address the problem of high cost of
projects which has brought us notoriety as a nation and dragged us down the development ladder since the
oil boom of the 1970s.
-- The theme for the Summit [Achieving Value-for-Money in the Development of Public Infrastructure in
Nigeria] was chosen for four principal reasons:
Value -for-money should be the focus in our project procurement matrix, especially in
i)
construction works and a bulwark against corruption in Nigeria.
Cost Management and achieving value-for-money in project development are not given
ii)
practical support by public policy makers in Nigeria.
iii)
High project costs are more rampant in the public sector.
High costs pose a major constraint in the development of public infrastructure in Nigeria.
iv)
-- The Project Cost Reduction Summit will be an annual event of the QSRBN as its contribution to taming
the monster of high project cost in Nigeria until normalcy is achieved.
Goodwill Message by Agele J. Alufohai, MPM,MRICS, FNIQS, President NIQS
“Joining the Tigers, Taming the “NGERIAN PRICE”
-- The reference is to Asian Tigers of South East Asia that demystified the idea that the West or our
common colonial masters have a monopoly of the secrets of material and technological advancement.
Today, Singapore has a per capita GDP that is greater than France’s.
-- Nigeria is calculated to need and spend $16 billion in the next 6 years for it to close its infrastructure
deficit. Meanwhile, the country is said to have spent over N14 trillion on infrastructure in the last 40 years.
89
-- I almost added with little or nothing to show for it; something international financiers cynically describe
as the “Nigerian price” has been responsible. It simply means that if Americans pay about $10,000 for a
kilometre of road and Egyptians pay $12,000, Nigerians pay $30,000.
-- We certainly do not need to ask why Nigerians who have far less, love to pay much more. The important
question is how do we start to pay what others pay for infrastructure and not double or triple?And what is
the role of professionals like Quantity Surveyors, not to talk of lawyers, accountants and others in ensuring
that Nigerians get value for the money they spend on infrastructure?
-- Let’s first remind ourselves what is at stake. What we all have to gain as citizens if we get infrastructure
policy and spending right. Poor infrastructure has been calculated to add 30% to the cost of doing business
in Africa. This means lost investments and jobs and taxes. It means less money to spend on providing health
services and saving lives.
-- Investments in infrastructure create jobs in infrastructure sectors; while also boosting incomes, jobs
creation and productivity in many sectors of the economy.
-- The journey of a thousand steps begins with a step as they say. Professionals like QS have a duty to
provide precise tools to transform these diffuse yearnings into concrete outcomes.
-- It’s good for people to criticize corruption; but it is far better to carefully study it and have the
professional tools to thwart it.
-- I enjoin allied professionals in the construction industry and other professions to employ the tools of
their professions in advancing transparency and accountability in infrastructure procurement.
-- We must expand the concept of appropriate costing. The expertise and quantum of funds required to
close Nigeria’s infrastructure deficit can be found more readily in the Nigerian and international private
sector rather than government ministries in Abuja.
-- We also have a role to play in convincing Nigerians that Nigeria’s progress doesn’t lie in clinging to
policies and practices that have been shown not to work; and giving them confidence that it is possible to
ensure that private sector driven policies like PPPs can be made transparent.
-- Quantity Surveyors have the tools.
Goodwill Message by Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed, Hon. Minister of the FCT
-- The theme of this Summit coincides with one of the priorities of the FCT Administration and the
Transformation Agenda of President Goodluck Jonathan.
-- In recent years, it has become increasingly difficult for Government to adequately appropriate funds in its
annual budgets for development of public infrastructure in Nigeria. This has no doubt led to growing need
to seek to achieve value-for-money appropriated in budgets.
-- It is rather unfortunate that the compliance with the PP Act has only been embraced by the Federal
Government while other tiers of government are yet to substantially comply with it.
-- Proper planning ensures that projects are passed for procurement after assessing their needs.
-- Consultants and public officials saddled with the responsibility of pre-contract planning and
documentation need to come to terms with the fact that it is no more business as usual.
Opening AddressbyHE, Senator Anyim Pius Anyim,Secretary to the Government of the Federation
-- The present Administration under the able leadership of President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, GCFR places
great emphasis on project cost reduction in the country. Achieving-value-for-money in the development of
public infrastructure in Nigeria occupies a pride of place in the Transformation Agenda of Government.
-- The elements for attaining this cost reduction are financial probity, value-for-money, efficient allocation
of resources and accountability in the conceptualization, planning and execution of engineering and
construction projects within the national economy
-- Mr. President at various times has expressed worry and serious concern about the high cost of road
projects in Nigeria and has directed the Economic Management Team headed by the Coordinating Minister
of the Economy/Minister of Finance to find solution to this malaise.
-- I believe that the QSRBN also has a role to play in finding solutions to this disturbing problem. I also
commend the Board for convening this Summit.
-- Given the fact that the determination of cost structure and components of construction projects is a
major function of the Quantity Surveyors, your profession holds the key to unravelling the mystery behind
the high costs which arise from factors other than market forces.
90
-- It is imperative to design templates for determining cost bands and ranges for various types of projects
so as to instil sanity in the planning and preparation of capital budgets. The Government will thus require
QS to bring to bear their expertise in budgetary planning of capital projects, cost management and cost
auditing in the emerging regime as we cannot achieve value-for-money without the requisite expertise,
knowledge and skill.
-- It is also the duty of every professional regulatory body, such as yours, to monitor the ethical disposition
and conduct of their members to guard against collusion and connivance with unpatriotic elements in
inflating the costs of projects.
-- I wish to propagate that only qualified and registered engineers and QS should be involved in the design,
management, costing administration and other activities associated with the procurement of infrastructure
in Nigeria.
The main presentations and their highlights include:
1. Value-For-Money as a Pre-Requisite for Sustainable Economic Development in Nigeria by Ifeanyi Tim
Anago, FNIQS
INTRODUCTION
-- Infrastructure deficit remains the greatest challenge to our economic development.
-- The issue of the transformation of project procurement and administrative framework constitutes one
leg of the value-for-money concept, more like the sub-structure.
-- The second leg that qualifies as the super-structure is Quality Management [QM], which comprises
Quality Control [QC] and Quality Assurance [QA].
-- The challenge for change is great, but we will advance if we each make up our minds to be radical agents
of the change we are waiting for. Character transformation is primal. It takes a combination of internal
motivation and external coercion to shift the current paradigm.
-- Contract Forms must be audited to suit our local environment, and sanctions enforced for deviant
behaviour.
-- The cost of corruption must act as a dis-incentive.
-- New resource management models such as PPPsshould be vigorously pursued as a panacea for wasteful
resource use.
-- Human capacity development programmes should be encouraged and human expertise deployed to
areas of prime competence.
-- Leaders must walk the talk and live by examples.
-- Above all, moral or ethical revolution is mandatory.
2. Institutional Framework for Achieving Value-for-Money in Construction Projects in Nigeria by Abiodun
Adebanjo
-- Value for money [VfM] is about obtaining the maximum benefit with the resources available.
-- Corruption is the bane of our collective existence and has created an assault on the country’s integrity.
There is no segment of facet of our national life that is not affected by this monster. Aside the negative
image which corruption has created on all of us, it equally destroys our ethics and moral standards.
-- Fraud in project construction contracts is said to revolve around three major issues: payment methods,
quantity verification and quality specification & execution.
-- Two identified institutional frameworks for ensuring Value-for-Money in the project construction in
Nigeria are:
* The NIQS and QSRBN.
* The Anti-corruption Agencies – EFCC, ICPC, etc.
-- The maintenance of the highest standards of discipline and professional conduct implies that the
NIQS/QSRBN is the first institutional framework which is saddled with the responsibility of ensuring that
professional standards are met in the industry.
-- We are reminded that despite the presence of the EFCC and other ACAs, the onus lies with NIQS/QSRBN
to sanitize the QS profession and assist other ACAs to help Nigeria achieve VfM in projects construction.
-- Amehand Odusamiopined that “Professional institutions should give more priority consideration to ethical
discourse at technical sessions, public lectures, and seminars”.NIQS/QSRBN should organize mind-set
91
changing seminars and workshopsto inculcate in all RQS a patriotic zeal, the values of objectivity and an
anti-corruption attitude.
3. Developing Templates for Project Costing in Nigeria [Basic Considerations] by Dr. Chinedu Chimdi
Adindu, MNIQS, RQS; Dean, School of Environmental Design & Technology, Abia State Polytechnic, Aba
-- The construction industry worldwide accounts for a sizeable proportion of nations’ economic activities.
--An accurate estimate of project costs provides an essential basis for proper project cost estimation,
monitoring and control. Cost inputs in the convention of cost accounting represents the material, labour
and capital combined in a transformation matrix to produce a product [output].
-- Aside from cost planning, cost control is a critical competence of Quantity Surveyors to ensure that the
integrity of planned project cost are sustained within the continuum of project delivery amidst several
construction risks that tend towards cost overrun.
-- Basic requirements for elemental cost planning:
* Cost Analysis of a previous similar project
* Plans and elevations of the proposed project
* Outline specifications/levels of service installations, etc. for the proposed project
-- High cost of construction infrastructure in Nigeria is a critical challenge to Government and other
stakeholders’ quest for rapid national development. Among its numerous effects include the reduction in
the quantity and quality of construction product deliverables.
-- The development of project costing templates would standardize project costing presentation
procedures by drawing necessary synergy with appropriate rules of measurement in use and other
principles of good practice documents.
-- It is recommended that:
* Quantity Surveyors are to make efforts in ensuring that tender sums do not exceed approved budget
estimates through competences and in-depth knowledge of construction technology technical design
criteria, material/component development, construction finance and economics, lean construction, and
whole-life costing.
* QS should adopt best practices in pre-contract costing for cost-effectiveness and maximum value-formoney.
* Pre-contract cost considerations by QS must employ cost planning techniques for a balanced distribution
of expenditure.
* QS should monitor all cost components and ensure project completion at optimal cost.
* On-going cost control function of QS should involve cost reduction strategies without lowering
performance.
-- As cost economists, QS should initiate and sustain pragmatic cost reduction strategies at both precontract and post-contract stages, by developing resource-based project costing and control templates for
improved cost management of the nation’s projects.
4. Civil Society as Societal Watchdog in Promoting Public Accountability by Babatunde Oluajo
-- Civil society encompasses all associational activity of private actors in the public realm. Beside the
traditional Non-Governmental Organisations, there are Faith-Based Organisations (FBOs), CommunityBased Organisations (CBOs), farmers’ organisations, trade unions, professional associations, political
parties, informal networks, student organisations, academic bodies, chambers of commerce, etc.
-- Public accountability pertains to the obligations of persons or entities entrusted with public resources to
be answerable for the fiscal, managerial and programme responsibilities that have been conferred on
them, and to report to those that have conferred these responsibilities.
-- The main objective of public accountability is to ensure that public resources are used most economically
and efficiently; that there is minimum of wastage or theft andthat the public actually benefits from public
resources.
-- Civil society has now gained considerable prominence in both mature and fledgling democracies. The last
two/three decades have witnessed a phenomenal rise in the number of civil society organizations, at the
international and national levels.
-- Civil society is now considered to be an important mechanism of public oversight and accountability of
Government and State institutions.
92
A vibrant civil society is therefore a positive factor in sustaining andconsolidating democracy by
empowering people and subjectinggovernment action and policies to public scrutiny.
-- Among the important roles performed by civil society in promoting accountability are:
Setting agenda for the public and the government with regards to public policies.
Involvement in development policy formulation and implementation
Mobilization of the social forces for the creation of the required consensus for the accomplishment
of development objectives.
Demand for transparency in public actions and implementation of public policies.
International representation of local interests through transnational networks and alliances
through which they play the role of international actors.
Creates spaces for a wider, more ample democratic debate of public policies.
Provides essential local knowledge that is vital to the policy process and that gives voice to the
opinions and experiences of the poor.
Monitoring and evaluation of public policies with a view to setting the agenda for improvements
and pro-people reform of public policies.
-- CSOs need to look into mechanisms that enhance the visibility of those sections of society they represent
or on whose behalf they speak to provide a strong sense of mandate or representation.
5. The Strategies for Reducing the High Cost of Road and Civil Engineering Projects in Nigeria by Dr.
Yakubu Ibrahim, Department Of Quantity Surveying, Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University, Bauchi
-- Government has the major responsibility of evolving new policy instruments that clearly allocates
responsibility with matching authority in the award and execution of engineering projects.
-- The Quantity Surveyor should shoulder the cost management of all capital projects, since his education
and training have equipped him adequately for this task.
-- Cost reduction in civil engineering projects can be effected at the macro and micro levels.
-- At the macro level, issues that touch upon external constraints or global perception of the Nigerian
construction industry should be tackled. These includehigh of risk and uncertainty of construction, civil
disturbances, and insecurity of life and property would readily come to mind.
-- Therefore, Nigeria must be peaceful, politically stable, and free of religious and tribal conflicts.
-- At the micro level, the range of factors include:
* Government should involve QS at all stages of design, procurement and execution of civil engineering
projects.
* Incorporation of risk management and cost control requirements in the tendering mechanism.
* Use of appropriate forms of contract.
* Utilization of indigenous contractors and consultants.Nigerian indigenous contractors and consultants
have come of age; there is no reason why they cannot be entrusted with large or highly technical projects.
The insistence on the use of foreign contractors and consultants would always translate into high costs of
procurement of construction projects.
6. Design Challenges in Cost Management of Road Projects by Engr. Barr. Tope Oribuyaku,
FNSE, FNICE, MNIQS, MCIArb
-- Cost management of any facility must commence right from the design stage in order to be able to
achieve the desired objective.
-- The design of roads or highwaysentailtwo broad processes: geometricdesign and pavement design. In
both design types, there is room for reducing cost through optimal design approaches.
-- The time to begin reducing and controlling a product’s cost must be at the design stage when product
designers have the greatest freedom to improve their design and to minimize the product’s overall lifecycle cost.
-- The design of roads is a complex venture as it integrates extensive site studies, materials investigations
and loading analysis into the design process.
7. Project Costing in the Public-Private-Partnership Procurement Model by Dr. S.I.J. Onwusonye, FNIQS;
Senior Lecturer, Department of Quantity Surveying, Imo State University, Owerri
93
-- The provision of public infrastructure by government at a rate that maintains and allows desired per
capita income, higher standard of living and blithesomeness for her citizens has most often been
determined by budgetary constraints.
-- This mode of project procurement is associated with certain difficulties:
* the project can only proceed when the public funding is in place and this can be problematic especially
when many projects fail to funding and never take off.
* procurement is usually on the basis of cheapest bottom line instead of value for money and with little or
no accommodation for long-term maintenance or decommissioning costs;
* even when funded, project delivery most often has not caused elimination of time and cost overruns.
* subsequent funds for the maintenance of the built assets also a dependent on governments suffer most
times.
Turnkey is associated with favourable techniques and various variants which the Public Private Partnership
(PPP) procurement method relies on. Some of its variants are:
* Build, Own and Operate (BOO)
* Build, Own, Operate and Transfer (BOOT)
* Build, Own and Transfer (BOT).
-- Techniques which assist professionals in costing projects procured under the traditional methods include:
Financial methods: Cost limits determined by client
(i)
Unit: Used on project having standard units of accommodation
(ii)
(iii)
Superficial: Based on Floor Area
Approximate quantities: Major items measured
(iv)
Elemental estimating: Used in conjunction with cost planning
(v)
Resource analysis: Used mainly for contractor estimating
(vi)
Cost models: Mathematical computerized modeling
(vii)
Expert systems: Computer based systems developed using practitioners’ expertise.
(viii)
Whole-life cost model: Whole-life analysis of building
(ix)
-- Conversely, costing could be undertaken through Tender procedure reflecting:
* Labour
* Material
* Plant
* Overheads.
-- The optimal management of time, performance and cost which represent clients’ requirements is highly
desirable in the construction industry.
Furthermore, for a whole-life cost, it is often necessary to spend, an extra money initially on a construction
project so as to bring about reduction in future recurring costs.
-- Value-for-money is achieved in a given construction product when the appearance and structure have
been assessed in relation to its adequacy to support the facility during its life; the materials used judged in
terms of durability, appearance, and freedom from future maintenance and costs which will prove to be a
cheaper cost-in use.
-- Though the total cost of procuring PPP capital projects is usually higher than the traditionally procured
projects, the inherent attributes dwarf the costs. They include:
(a)
optimum risks, allocation
quality assurance without “gold plating”
(b)
integrating design with operational needs
(c)
operational efficiency
(d)
access to new technology
(e)
the use of more effective business processes and cost control procedures
(f)
(g)
economies of scale/collateral commercial ventures
improving the match between supply and demand
(h)
providing for alternative uses
(i)
speed of delivery.
(j)
-- Highlights of the PPP model for cost reduction include:
(i)
Sponsor of PPP turnkey projects should ensure that designs for BOT projects are explicit enough so
as to minimize possible positive variation(s).
94
(ii)
Investors in PPP/BOT turnkey projects should ensure that they rely on data generated by
stakeholders and experienced professionals in the built environment.
(iii)
Cash-Flows and other data generated should be analyzed using effective tools/techniques such as
Net Present Value and/or Internal Rate of Return with a view to obtaining a realistic cost of capital.
(iv)“Cost of Capital” is a critical player and determinant in PPP/BOT procured project. As factors such risk,
floatation costs, time, tax, etc. affect the percentage representing cost of capital government intervention
in these regards will impact positively.
(v)
A well articulated legal framework with relevance to turnkey product procurement should be put in
place when and where necessary.
(vii)
Some known contingent factors/difficulties such as market risks, currency risks, high leverage,
political risks, etc. and which relatively discourage investment in PPP projects, should be addressed.
(viii)
PPP turnkey projects are oftencomplex and of new technology, especially to the developing
nations. Perhaps, these explain why government accepts without review to ascertain the level of
compliance to optimum in costs and/or value-for money of the sponsors who are mainly foreigners.
(ix)
Policy makers and the regulatory authorities should ensure policy consistency.
(x)
Fluctuations through contractual mechanism reimburse contractors for changes in input prices over
which they have no control. Most materials input are imported and as most turnkey projects take
enormous time, fluctuation sets in which tilts the contract sum upwards with its attendant pseudo valuefor money.
Most parts of Nigeria are associated with unrest, instability which pose an unfriendly environment
(xi)
for PPP infrastructure development to strive.
Government should provide adequate security and unsure peace, stability and rule of law to enable PPP
project to be timely and effectively procured.
(xii)
Public infrastructure development appears to be highly associated with corruption and fraud which
introduce leakages on the value-for-money of the product. Thus, all hands must be on deck to destroy this
unwholesomeness.
8. Budgetary Planning and Cost Auditing as Panacea for High Project Cost in Nigeria by Godwin O. Arah;
ARICS, ANIQS, MCIOB, MNIOB, RQS
-- The high cost of infrastructural projects in Nigeria has been a major worry for national economic planners
and managers since Nigeria’s independence.
-- For budgetary purposes, cost information is very important and should be available to the quantity
surveyor or other cost consultants to ensure that the most economical solution is selected. A Construction
Cost Data Base Centre needs to be established and maintained to guide the budgetary planner to advise on
the project solution that offers the best value for money.
-- In Nigeria, generally speaking, there is virtually no cost planning at the design stage and where there is
any at all, it is more of costing the designed work as produced by the architect or the engineer.
-- Clients should be advised to use the service of a QS or other cost advisers to determine or set cost limits
for their projects before actually engaging an architect or engineer.
-- The implications of budgetary planning on a project with respect to costs are as follows:
(a)
Budgetary planning facilitates the setting of cost limits and cost targets within the cost limit using
appropriate cost information from similar past projects/contracts costs thereby ensuring that the project
costs are reasonable and offer the best value for money.
(b)
Budgetary planning which employs the use of cost control measures ensure that costs are not unreasonably escalated during construction through the instrumentality of variations as these could be cost
checked and controlled.
(c)
It facilitates comparison of like with like and any anomalies can be detected from inception and
corrupt practices checked.
(d)
It guarantees that the client obtains the best value for money spent on projects especially large
ones as infrastructural projects.
-- Budgetary planning is essential in order to ensure that the budgeted costs of projects are not exceeded at
the tender stage. It also ensures that the costs are for similar projects executed in the past and can act as a
check on the cost of the proposed project.
95
-- Construction Cost Audit ensures that the contractor carries out the work as designed and does not cut
corners.
-- It is recommended that the cost expert/cost planner be engaged first or at the same time with the
architect or design engineer so that he can establish the cost limit or estimated budget cost of the project
to guide the client properly.
-- An audit of the costs of the project should be made mandatory on every major project to ensure that the
benefits of the budgetary planning are not lost during the execution of the project.
-- The Audit report should be made a final document signalling the completion of the project and treated as
a legal document. The NIQS and the QSRBN should take this up.
3.
The NIQS and QSRBN should initiate stops towards the establishment of a National Construction
Cost Data/Information Centre that would provide research cost information to guide cost planners and cost
auditors in their assignments.
4.
Government should take steps to encourage local contractors to participate more actively in the
B&C industry. The establishment of aConstruction Development Bank will be a step in the right direction.

2ND ANNUAL BUILDING & CONSTRUCTION ECONOMIC ROUND-TABLE [BCERT 2]
Role of the Building & Construction Sector in Achieving Vision 20:2020
Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre, Abuja
Exactly one year before, the QSRBN organized and fulfilled the maiden BCERT; with the central theme:
Setting Agenda for Nigeria’s Economic Development through the Building & Construction Sector.
Attendance:Over 200 participants from amongst public and private sector organizations and professionals.
The import of the forum was further underscored by the repeated representation of the highest level of
governance in the country – The Presidency. The opening ceremony was chaired by H.E. Arc. Mohammed
Namadi Sambo, GCON, Vice-President, Federal Republic of Nigeria [represented by Ms. Amal Pepple, CFR,
Honourable Minister of Lands, Housing & Urban Development].
Welcome Address by Mal. Husaini A. Dikko, PPNIQS, FNIQS, RQS; President, QSRBN
-- BCERT 2 was designed to reposition the sector to play its rightful role in Nigeria’s economic development.
Indeed, H.E., the Vice-President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Arc. Mohammed Sambo, GCON
confirmed the Federal Government’s endorsement of the BCERT series.
-- Vision 20:2020 is ambitious, but attainable. But we must buckle up and all hands on deck to gain the
necessary momentum and synergy required to make the Vision realizable.
-- As Quantity Surveyors, the body of knowledge of our profession is encapsulated in cost engineering,
procurement and project management, thus making the B&C sector our natural sphere of influence and
operation.
-- The PPP is a veritable model for private sector participation in achieving Vision 20:2020. We commend
the Federal Government for enacting the necessary legal framework and the establishment of the
Infrastructure Concession and Regulatory Commission (ICRC). This Agency is a critical infrastructure for the
achievement of Vision 20:2020 and must be strengthened and supported.
-- Housing is one area where government direct intervention and investment is begging for attention. A
situation in which Government surrenders its responsibility in the provision of a basic infrastructure such as
housing to the private sector leads to oligopoly in which rent seekers will have a field day.
-- I appeal to the Federal Government to adequately fund and strengthen the Federal Ministry of Lands,
Housing & Urban Development, the Federal Housing Authority and the Federal Mortgage Bank to enable
them effectively deliver on this score. That Ministry is key to the achievement of Vision 20:2020.
-- I sincerely thank HE, the Vice-President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, the Honourable Minister,
Lands, Housing & Urban Development and the Honourable Minister of Works for being there for us. We are
very grateful. I also wish to thank our invited guests and resource persons and organizations for agreeing to
partner with us in this programme.
Goodwill Message by Mr. Agele J. Alufohai, FNIQS, RQS, MRICS;President, NIQS/Vice-President, QSRBN
-- Houses are the most expensive things many people will ever buy or invest in, in their life-time. There is
huge demand for them, especially in a very populous oil economy as ours.
-- There is the need for Government-Supported Mortgages. If a way is found to make mortgages the
dominant means of acquiring houses in Nigeria, every Nigerian who has money to buy a piece of land will
move into his/her own house the moment they have saved enough to buy a land. This will induce a wave of
consumption, economic activities, jobs etc. in the building and construction sector.
-- With the Land Use Act, land titles technically belong to State Governors. It is puzzling that the
economically stifling Act is still with us after over 13 years of democracy. The legislation also directly
contributes to housing shortages and accommodation difficulties by depriving Governments of funds,
which could be used to develop infrastructure.
-- We all need to be interested in the content of the new National Housing Policy and participate in the
debate on it. What is at stake is so crucial for Nigeria’s ability to achieve the Vision 20:2020.
Goodwill Message by Mr. Ayodele Gbadebo Sangosanya, Chairman, Estate Surveyors & Valuers Board of
Nigeria [ESVARBON]
101
-- The BCERT series is a noble effort. There is no doubt that the Government would have benefited from the
ideas generated at the last forum, and thus enrich their transformation agenda.
-- I counsel that BCERT 2 should continue to pursue those issues still outstanding, which include:
Land Use Act.
Local production of building materials.
Use of local building materials.
Primary Mortgage Institutions.
Cost of financing projects.
Availability of land, and costs.
Social Housing.
Infrastructure in general.
-- We professionals in the building industry should unite to tackle matters that relate to the socio-economic
agenda of our country. We are in support of your efforts to revitalize and re-engineer Nigeria’s socioeconomic landscape.
-- In full-time employment, I ensured that all major professionals in the industry were under one roof with
me. We had Estate Surveyors & Valuers, Quantity Surveyors, Mechanical & Electrical Engineers, Architects
& Builders, and we all worked in harmony.
Goodwill Message by Ambassador Dr. Tunji Olagunju, Special Adviser to the President on the New
Partnership for African Development [NEPAD]
-- The Theme “The Role of the Building and Construction Sector in Achieving Vision 20:2020” is very apt,
especially as every country is seeking support for infrastructure investment in a disorderly and unsettled
global financial system. There is substantial deficit in all sectors of our infrastructure development -power, transportation, education and health.
-- The Nigerian Vision looks up to the B&C sector to contribute significantly to the generation of the
double digit annual growth rate to launch Nigeria into the league of twenty largest economies in the world
by year 2020.
-- BCERT 2 provides a unique opportunity for a critical x-ray of the implementation of the Vision so far with
a view to providing ideas, professional advice and other inputs to assist its realization.
-- Quantity Surveyorsneed to redefine their professional roles, especially in relation to such critical
governance values as financial probity, value-for-money, efficient allocation of resources and accountability
in the conceptualization, planning and execution of B&Cprojects in our economy. I urge your Association to
face squarely the need to develop a more robust professional attitude and thinking.
Goodwill Message by Arc. Mike O. Onolememen, Fnia, MNIM; Honourable Minister of Works
-- This occasion symbolizes the very important role the QSRBN plays in our quest to ensure the nation’s
socio-economic development. The Board has been known to generate ideas and inputs for policies, which
will make the B&C sector generate employment and create wealth within the Nigerian economy. It has
also concerned itself with value for money, efficient allocation of resources and accountability in the
planning and execution of B&C projects.
-- The Ministry of Works is ready to collaborate with indigenous professional bodies to improve the
capacity of the Nigerian B&C companies and enable them operate at par with their foreign counterparts.
The issues germane to this include:
* Political will to give the indigenous firms the opportunity to perform.
* Deliberate policy to support indigenous engineering, consulting and construction companies.
* Expatriate quota.
* Capacity building of Nigerian engineers.
* Establishment of building government aided construction companies.
* Challenges faced by indigenous contractors such as lack of finance, high cost of plant and equipment and
scarcity of spare parts and construction materials, etc.
-- This Round-Table should explore ways of encouraging greater indigenous stake in the industry. I call on
Nigerian professionals to form partnerships to enhance their human, material and financial capacities to
compete favourably with foreign companies.
102
Opening Remarks by His Excellecny Arc. Mohammed Namadi Sambo, GCON, fnia; Vice-President, Federal
Republic of Nigeria [Represented by Ms. Amal Pepple, Honourable Minister of Lands, Housing & Urban
Development]
-- With this Round-Table, the QSRBN is contributing its quota to the developmental agenda of our national
transformation.
-- This administration has introduced policy measures and incremental strategic interventions in the B&C
sector as means of re-vitalizing it as one of the pillars of national renewal and sustainable development.
This Round-table is a worthy cause deserving of commendation and support.
-- The B&C sector is a virile tool for capital formation and wealth creation in any economy. It is best placed
to generate massive employment and stimulate economic growth and development through massive job
creation, provision of adequate security, decent housing, health facilities, educational facilities and
transportation; along with other necessary governance infrastructure to improve the standard of living of
the people.
-- A strong regulatory framework is crucial in the emergent regime of economic liberalization and increasing
private sector participation in productive and industrial activities within the economy. With the recent
approval of the National Housing and Urban Development Policies by Government, we are confident that
the B&C sector will be better regulated.
-- We are also taking steps to ensure that operators in the sector comply strictly with the provisions of the
National Building Code in order to stem the perceived culture of impunity. In addition, the Code is to be
reviewed soon to enable it address effectively the multi-dimensional challenges in the sector in a
sustainable manner.
-- I wish to encourage your Board and other regulatory professional bodies in the sector, to continue to
support on-going efforts by Government to bring sanity to the sector.
-- There are insinuations that the sector is a conduit-pipe for all forms of nefarious activities, thereby
denying the economy the necessary resources for impactful development. The Federal Government is
seriously worried about this disturbing trend, and hereby challenges Quantity Surveyors – as building &
construction cost experts – to find lasting solutions to the problem of high cost of sector projects in the
country.
The main presentations and their highlights include:
1. Global Perspective to Vision 20:2020 by Hon. Minister of National Planning, Dr. Shamsudeen Usman
The NV 20:2020
-- The Nigerian Government has aspired to achieve development through the use of various types of
development plans: Short Term Plan, Medium-Term and Long-Term.
The Vision 20:2020 document is a politically neutral long-term economic transformation blue-print by the
Nigerian people to transform the lives of the average Nigerians. Its underlying principles are:
* People as the fundamental focus of development.
* Inclusiveness, equity and balanced development.
-- The aspiration of NV20:2020 IS GLOBAL because
* Nigeria is not an island and to this extent affected by global development.
* Crude oil is Nigeria’s dominant source of foreign income,
* Crude oil is a dominant source of carbon emissions.
-- Nigeria will seek innovative solutions with a view to upholding sustainability as a key principle in her
quest for growth where climate change and environmental concerns directly threaten growth initiatives.
-- NV 20:2020 is underpinned by a strong human and spatial development component aimed at
transforming Nigeria’s six geo-political zones into major economic hubs and combating global population
explosion and urbanization.
--Building and Construction sector will play a crucial role in delivery of infrastructure requirements of
NV20:2020
2. Overview of the Nigerian Building & Construction Sector by Ademola Adeagbo, Nigerian Institute for
Social & Economic Research [NISER]
-- The Concern for the B&C sector is based on its critical roles in:
* Employment generation.
103
* Infrastructural development.
* Industrial development.
* Construction of institutional buildings.
* Construction of residential buildings, etc.
* Multiplier effect on growth of other sectors.
* Actualization of the transformation agenda.
-- The challenges associated with the performance of the B&C and Real Estate sectors, include:
* Difficult Business environment
* Dearth of Technical Expertise
* Dearth of Key Building materials
* Constrained Access to Credit
* Corruption, Quacks, etc.
3. Value-Added & Capital Formation in the Building & Construction Sector of the Nigerian Economy by Sir
Henry Eteama, Consultant Statistician/Economist
-- Nigeria is a great nation with enormous potentials derived from abundant natural, environmental and
Human resources.
-- The most popular aspect of National Accounts that describes economic development is the Gross
Domestic Product [GDP].
The activity sectors used in the determination of Nigeria’s economic development via the generation of
GDP include:
1.
Agriculture
Mining & Quarrying
2.
Manufacturing
3.
Utilities
4.
Building & Construction
5.
6.
Transportation
Post & Telecommunications
7.
Financial Intermediaries
8.
Other Services
9.
-- The QSRBN is showing greater interest in Statistical Information as a veritable ingredient for orderly
diagnostic solution to complex challenges and constraint factor to knowledge based decision making.
-- The Board should be encouraged by all stakeholders in the B&C sector [Governments, Development
Partners, the organized private sector and professional members] to sustain the BCERT as a vehicle for
mobilization, coordination, collaboration and cooperation in the development of the sector.
-- The Board should consider the need to establish a Data Centre and develop relevant Data Bases that
should be web-enabled. The Centre should be hosted at the Abuja headquarters office and linked to zonal
offices with the fell-over site (Disaster Recovery Site) at the NIQS. The key areas of regular and periodic
data needed to guarantee a non-distressed status of the Data Base will include:
* Statistical directory of professional members.
* Statistical directory of establishments and institutions involved in the building and construction sector.
* Tracking performance of the economy with special interest in the B&C sector development.
* Tracking price movement of building and construction materials, machinery, equipments, labour, fees,
taxes, subsidies, etc. by Local Government Area or State.
* Tracking import, export, re-export of B&C materials, equipments, machinery and professionals by
direction and magnitude of trade.
* Tracking manpower stock of professionals and potentials of academic and research institutes producing
and engaging students in relevant disciplines of the B&C sector, etc.
4. Public-Private-Partnership Model as a Tool for Accelerated Growth of the Building & Construction
Sector by D-G, Infrastructure Concession & Regulatory Commission, Engr. Mansur Ahmed
-- There is a high correlation between strong economic growth and the construction industry.
-- Nigeria’s physical infrastructure gap [especially in transportation] is the strongest investment case for
our optimism of growth in the construction industry.
104
-- Despite 50 years of political independence and economic governance and management, the Nigerian
economy is suffering from fundamental structural defects and has remained in a persistent state of
stagnation. This underscores the need for alternate funding mechanisms to augment traditional on-budget
funding.
-- The key principles of PPPs are:
Public interest
Value-For-Money
Appropriate risk Transfer
Transparency
Output Requirements
Competition
Capacity to Deliver
Engaging with the Market.
-- PPPs are complex and frequently have larger financing requirements, long-term contractual agreements
and involve significant transfer of risks to the private sector.
-- “Infrastructure is the biggest challenge to growing the Nigerian economy and Vision 20 : 2020 is not
possible without a significant up scaling of Nigeria’s infrastructure” – Chief Ernest Shonekan, Chairman,
ICRC.
-- The ICRC Act 2005empowers Federal MDAs to utilize PPPs as procurement vehicles of choice, where
suitable, to rapidly turn around the country’s infrastructural insufficiency. The Commission serves as the
primary driver agency to catalyze and facilitate engagement of the private sector.
-- The Commission has developed the National Policy on PPP (N4P) and associated operational guidelines,
which provide best practice guidelines and procedures for the effective development and competitive
procurement of PPP Projects.
-- Its is also working with the relevant authorities to integrate infrastructure provision into the National
Planning framework.
-- The Commission has established collaborative relationships with PPP agencies in Lagos, Cross River,
Niger, Benue, Rivers, Kaduna and Bayelsa States; and is pursuing similar contacts with other States.
-- PPP opportunities in the B&C sector include: Urban Infrastructure, Roads and Transport.
-- Getting the MDAs and the private sector partners to abide by New PPP Policy Guidelines has been a great
challenge, but we are winning.
-- In collaboration with the Office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, the Commission is
championing the establishment of PPP Units in key MDAs. They should be the reservoir of institutional
knowledge for PPPs in the MDAs.
5. The Importance of the Building & Construction Sector in Employment and Poverty Alleviation in
Nigeria by Dr. Fidelis Ogwumike, Economics Department, University of Ibadan
-- Generally the poor, irrespective of their occupations, derive most of their income from work. TheB&C
sector is a major source of wide-ranging employment.
-- The state of the Nigerian B&C sector is slowly on the decline. Its contribution to GDP has been relatively
low, due largely to low public sector investment, poor policy environment, and the high cost of inputs.
-- Efforts should be made to revitalize the sector by directing more investment to it.
-- Efforts should be made to increase the local contents, standardization/enforcement of building
infrastructure and the fight against corruption in the planning and implementation of projects in the sector.
6. Towards a Vibrant Building & Construction Sector: Role of Professionals by Obafemi Onashile,
Consultant Quantity Surveyor/Project Manager
-- As experts, professionals should be sought after to bring solutions, growth, profits, development, etc. to
an organization, sector and society at large.
-- In Nigeria, projects areselected and embarked upon; yet without yielding the appropriate growth in the
economy. Incidence of building collapse is on the rise, yet many professionals are idle or under-utilized.
-- A vibrant B&C sector is one of the visible signs that discerning institutional investors look out for in
gauging the state of health of a nation’s economy and in decision making on whether or not to invest in
that economy.
105
-- The economic variables that influence the extent of activity in the B&C sector include:general economic
climate, interest rates, credit availability, inflationary rate and the extent of control of public sector
spending.
-- A dynamic B&C sector will have spill-over effects on other sectors of the economy.
-- Criteriato identify professionals include:
•
Knowledge and skills
•
Life-Long-Learning(LLL
•
Ethical rules
•
Offer of services and public interests
•
Self-discipline and self control
-- The role of construction professionals encompasses provision of technical skills, achieving value-formoney, quality assurance and management, independent arbitration, innovation & modernity, selfregulation & control the professional, leadership, and setting and enforcement of standards
-- The challenges confronting construction professionals include:
* falling professionalism & professional standards
* usurpation of their roles
* adversarial relationships in the sector
* fragmentation of the construction sector
* inequity in remuneration distribution
* corruption
* poor quality of new entrants.
-- The forward for construction professionals would incorporate:
* The creation/adaptation of more specialized skills for acquisition by QS.
* Encouragement of more science-oriented graduates with non-cognate degrees into the B&C profession
through alternative qualification routes.
* Encouragement of professional firms to undertake international bench-marking of their operations and
services.
* Active enforcement of standards and sanctioning of erring members.
* Promoting the urgent establishment of the Construction Industry Board of Nigeria/Construction Industry
Council of Nigeria.
* Establishment of licentiateship scheme for firms by subjecting each firm to a regular and periodic
competence scrutiny. This should help uphold professional integrity and enhance quality assurance.
* Pursue active collaboration with other Institutions and Registration Boards [NIA, NSE, NIOB NIEVS,
ARCON, COREN, CORBON, etc.].
* Jointly seek adequate and justifiable remuneration for professionals in the sector.
7. Achieving Value-for-Money in Building & Construction: Role of the Bureau for Public Procurement by
D-G, Bureau for Public Procurement Engr. Emeka Ezeh
-- Value For Money [VFM] not only measures the cost of goods and services, but also takes into account the
combination of Quality, Cost, Resource utilization, Fitness for Purpose, Timeliness and Convenience to
judge whether or not, when taken together, they constitute Good Value.
-- Achieving VFM is the main goal of the entire Public Procurement Process. This will be guaranteed by:
* Needs Assessment
* Project Selection
* Conceptual/Preliminary Design
* Final Design
* Contractor Selection(Technical & Financial)
* Project Implementation
* Post-Award [Contract administration & supervision; project monitoring and evaluation].
-- The BPP reduced waste in Federal Government expenditure by over N216 billion in 2010 and N78 billion
in 2011.

2012 ANNUAL CONFERENCE FOR REGISTERED
QUANTITY SURVEYORS
Qyantity Surveyors and Vision 20:2020: The Imperatives and Challenges
Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre, Abuja
Eight years to the target Year 2020, the desire by the Federal Government of Nigeria to get its economy
ranked among the biggest 20 in the world, is increasingly coming into marked focus. However, as desirable
as that goal is, there are concerns over how realistic, how feasible and how attainable it is. Does quantity
surveying have a role to play in the achievement of vision 20:2020? If yes, how will that be done? What are
the challenges and obstacles? Is there a bright horizon for the profession?
Attendance: Over 500 participants and invited guests, including His Excellency Dr. Goodluck Ebele
Jonathan, GCFR, President, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Nigeria [ably represented by the
Honourable Minister of State for Works, Ambassador Bashir Yuguda]; representatives of the Honourable
Minister of Lands, Housing & Urban Development [Ms. Amal Pepple, CFR], former Honourable Minister of
the Federal Capital Territory [Mallam Nasir el-Rufai, OFR, FNIQS, RQS], members of the National Assembly,
Chairman of the Economic & Financial Crimes Commission [Mr. Ibrahim Lamorde]; members of the QSRBN,
National Executive of the NIQS and distinguished Quantity Surveying teachers, Professors Kunle Wahab and
King N.O. Nyenke, FNIQS.
Welcome Address by President, QSRBN, Mallam Husaini A. Dikko, PPNIQS, FNIQS, RQS
-- Quantity Surveying is one of the scheduled professions in Nigeria, which main role in the economy is
achieving value-for-money, probity and accountability in the management of project costs.
-- The profession is regulated so that only those who possess the requisite formal education, skills,
competences and who operate in accordance with professional code of the ethics are registered to practise
the profession as individuals or professional firms. Efficient management and allocation of resources are
therefore central to the profession of quantity surveying.
-- Does quantity surveying have a role to play in the achievement of vision 20:2020? If yes, how will that
be done? What are the challenges and obstacles? Is there a bright horizon for the profession?
-- This year’s RQS Conference is designed to:
* create awareness of the many possibilities and opportunities available to the registered quantity surveyor
in the ever-expanding frontiers of the profession.
* provide a forum where RQS can share experiences, information and ideas on how they can improve on
their professional practices and lives.
-- Vision 20:2020 should not be seen in abstract or esoteric terms. As QS, we have a special role to play in
the achievement of this vision. This is what we should be doing today.
-- Why are the quantity surveyors not involved in the cost management of most projects? It is because of
corruption. How can we achieve vision 20:2020 in an environment and atmosphere where projects cost
multiples of their true costs?
-- We have the capability but Government and Development Partners must give the profession the needed
capacity through the necessary empowerment. Vision 20:2020 is achievable if we can reduce project cost
by 50% and this is possible.
Goodwill Message by President, NIQS/Vice-President, QSRBN, Mr. Agele J. Alufohai, FNIQS, RQS
-- A significant feature of being in the 20:20 league is the ability to create a vibrant economy and generate
jobs in all sectors of the economy [manufacturing, construction, tourism, information technology and so
on] for millions of its unemployed citizens.
-- Today, there is a high level of frustration, with our history of corruption, poor infrastructure, low level of
industrialization, and rampant joblessness.
-- For Nigeria, the gap between potential and realized opportunity is traceable to Trust and Transparency.
Let me explain. Development is basically about cement, sand and iron.
-- Let us start to build transparency and trust now. We as professionals are ready and willing to partner
with the Government to ensure that all projects being implemented with oil subsidy removal savings are
subjected to globally-accepted measures of cost economics and project management.
115
-- We as QS should hold more events such as this [workshops, seminars, career talks, etc.] so the public
would become aware of the importance of our profession and skills to economic development of Nigeria.
Goodwill Message by Executive Chairman, Economic & Financial Crimes Commission, Mr. Ibrahim
Lamorde
-- The EFCC was set up to restore sanity in the conduct of public affairs, and is determined to fulfil its
mandate.
-- All hands must be on deck if the war against corruption is to be won and consolidated. The Commission
sees itself as partners-in-progress to the QSRBN, the NIQS other bodies, in the collective desire to eliminate
economic and financial crimes in the sector and economy at large.
-- The B&C sector is highly vulnerable to corrupt practices, especially money laundering, and the EFCC will
avail the QSRBN of the relevant details to assist the Board in its regulatory functions.
Keynote Address by Ms. Amal Pepple, CFR; Honourable Minister of Lands, Housing & Urban
Development
-- It is part of my responsibility to encourage you in bringing all your registered members together annually
to enrich your professional knowledge and brainstorm on current topical issues of the nation’s
development as related to your profession.
-- Your profession as a principal actor in the built environment, and your programmes are catalysts for
realizing the mandate of the Federal Ministry of Lands, Housing and Urban development, the
Transformation Agenda of this Administration and Vision 20:2020.
-- A revitalized B&C sector is capable of increasing the National Infrastructure Stock, creating jobs for
millions of Nigerian, creating wealth, boosting to the growth of the economy, and ultimately contributing to
the achievement of Vision 20:2020.
-- Within the past one year, we have succeeded in getting the National Housing and National Urban &
Regional DevelopmentPoliciesapproved by the federal Executive Council. The process of enacting a law to
enforce the National Building Code has made significant progress in the National Assembly..
-- My advice is that you should continually train and avail your registered members with the ever-growing
technological innovations in the construction industry.I call on all of you to re- dedicate yourselves to the
task of nation-building by eschewing all unpatriotic acts.
Opening Remarks by His Excellency, Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, GCFR; President, Commander-in-Chief
of the Armed Forces, Federal Republic of Nigeria [Represented by Honourable Minister of State for
Works, Amb. Bashir Yuguda]
-- The President’s Transformation Agenda draws inspiration from Vision 20:2020 and the first National
Implementation Plan [NIP].
-- Quantity Surveyors, as some of the key professionals in the construction industry, have the patriotic duty
to come up with workable recommendations in your area of competence that will ensure proper
harnessing and efficient utilization of Nigeria’s resources for the betterment of our people.
-- It is expected that by 2020, Nigeria will have a strong, diversified, sustainable and competitive economy
that effectively harnesses the talents and energies of its people and responsibly exploits its endowments to
guarantee a high standard of living and quality of life to its citizens.
The main presentations and their highlights are as follows:
1. RAISING THE BAR OF PROFESSIONAL SERVICE DELIVERY: THE MATTER OF QUALITY ASSURANCE by Ola
Olu Garuba, FNIQS, MRICS
-- Measured against the performance of about 200 other countries that make the WorldEconomy, Nigeria
with a population of about 160 million currently ranks 31st by GDP of about 250 billion USD with a growth
rate of 7% per annum. We come 174th by GDP per Capita. With unemployment at 24%, we rate 168th and
currently have the 6th largest population living below poverty line, which is currently almost at 70% of our
total population.
-- To grow the GDP, we must grow the capacity of our economy to expand the production of goods and
services.
116
-- To succeed at home, countries would need to complete globally.To compete globally, countries would
have to produce goods of world-class quality which means producing better goods but at competitive
prices.
-- A proven quality management system would raise the bar of the service delivery and reflect the following
elements:
* Quality -- The totality of features or characteristics of a product, service or facility that bear on its ability
to satisfy a given need.
* Quality Policy -- The overall quality intentions and direction of an organization as regards quality as
formally expressed by top management.
* Quality Management -- The overall functions that determines and implement the quality policy.
* Quality Assurance -- All the planned and systematic actions necessary to provide confidence that an item
service or facility will meet the defined requirements.
* Quality Control -- Those quality assurance actions, which provide a means of control and measure the
characteristics of an item, process or facility to established requirements.
* Quality Manual -- A set of documents, which communicates the organizations quality policy, procedures
and requirements.
* Quality Plan -- A contract specific document defining the actions and processes to be undertaken
together with
the hold points for review and inspections. It also defines the control document, applicable standards,
inspection methods and inspection authority.
* Quality Programme -- A contract specific document that defines quality requirements, responsibilities,
procedures and actions to be applied at various stages of the contract.
* Quality Audit -- A periodic check that the quality procedures set out in the quality plan have been carried
out.
* Quality Reviews -- A periodic review of quality standards, procedures and processes to ensure their
applicability to current requirements.
* Third-Party Assessment – Third-party assessment and certification is an endorsement by an independent
body.
* ISO 9001 -- International Organization for Standards, a world-wide federation of national standards body
(ISO Member Bodies). ISO 9001 currently in its fourth edition sets out the standards for quality
management systems and quality assurance.
* Total Quality Management -- A way of managing an organization that aims at the continuous
participation and co-operation of all in the improvement of its products, services and activities, to achieve
customer satisfaction, the objectives of the organization for the benefit of all, in accordance with
requirements of society (ISO 9004).
2. A REVIEW OF THE COMPETENCIES WITHIN THE QUANTITY SURVEYING PROFESSION byIfeanyi Tim.
Anago, FNIQS, RQS
--The 21st century has informed an agenda of change in the way the world is organized and business is
done. The core driver of this agenda is the concept of globalization with its anthem of “world’s best
practices”.
-- In no area is this agenda as compelling as in resources management indexed to the built environment
industry.
-- The 21st century Quantity Surveyor should be a resource habitat primed to add value to the entire
developmental process by his unique menu of skills and expansive acquisition of new streams of knowledge
to answer the challenges of the hour.
-- Skill sets and tools are of core relevance to any profession hoping to maintain or attain market
dominance in this change-driven century.
-- Quantity Surveying, as a numeric discipline, has a peculiar dynamism that should enable it drive
competition in the market place. It is no longer about what discretionary state legislative powers allocate to
a profession as its exclusive preserve and domain.
-- Professional knowledge is no longer about entire compendium of knowledge possessed by a single
practitioner, but the aggregate of micro-competencies that collectively inhabit a given profession. The
clarion call is on; whether we shall slide backward or glide forward.
117
-- Given the present competitive environment, tomorrow belongs to the nimble-footed and stout-hearted.
We have a strategic choice to make. We can either break loose from self-imposed psychological limitations
by aggressive acquisition of knowledge, skills and information and dominantly claim a huge slice of the
market place; or forever pine and whine “begging” to be allowed to measure M+E services and perhaps civil
engineering quantities.
-- Knowledge commands respect and special knowledge commands special respect. Our ever-expanding
knowledge profile must attain a certain critical mass before it can prevail and dominate the marketplace.
The marketplace has a huge respect for a well instructed and well blended QS either in a stand-alone
capacity or within a multi-disciplinary combine.
3. OPPORTUNITIES FOR REGISTERED QUANTITY SURVEYORS IN THE OIL & GAS SECTOR OF THE NIGERIAN
ECONOMY -- Joseph Kikiowo, ANIVS, MNIQS, RQS, ESV, PMP, MCIArb.

4. BUILDING CAPACITY & CAPABILITIES -- THE IMPERATIVES OFCONSORTIA, PARTNERSHIPS, MERGERS
&ACQUISITIONS by Adekunle Ajayi, MBA, ACTI, FCA
Capacity Building can be a very expansive concept and may include the following:
Human Resource Development
Organizational Development
Institutional
Institutional and Legal Framework Development
-- Consortium is a formal arrangement between organizations working together
together to achieve a defined
objective.
-- Its success factors include:
Trust,
Trust, openness and honesty between members.
Objectives
Objectives of the consortium must be clearly stated and understood by members.
Clearly
Clearly documented agreement including roles and responsibilities,
responsibilities, who does what, where and when?
Be
Be realistic about risks and costs and manage risks proactively.
Financial
Financial viability of members should be ascertained through credit checks.
-- Partnerships are other ways that Quantity Surveyors firms can add scientific weight to their work, ensure
uptake of results and learn in a systematic way what is working appropriately within the system and what is
not. Partnerships bring benefit by exposing people to new ideas, resources and ways of thinking.
--Merger is the generic term for a full and final coming together of two previously separate companies.
Considerations include economics, new opportunities, leadership change and challenges, a desire to
integrate services, board issues, the need to maximize resources and other pertinent issues specific to
particular organization.
5. ESTABLISHING A DATA CENTRE FOR PRICE INTELLIGENCE IN THE BUILDING AND CONSTRUCTION
SECTOR bySir Henry C. Eteama, Consultant Statistician/Economist
-- The QSRBN Data Base would warehouse and
and archive enormous datasets about the activities of Quantity
Surveyors in different building and construction projects.
-- The Cost Data Compendium of terms/concepts/definitions/methodologies will include:
1. Materials
2. Plants, Machinery and Equipment
3. Construction Workers (Labour)
4. Sources of the fore-going
5. Price Systems
6. Key Indicators, variables and Parameters.
-- The key justification to establish a robust Data Centre and develop appropriate data bases is to ensure
seamless flow of much needed data by QSRBN and Quantity Surveyors. The production and use of
adequate statistics will enable the Board measure the gaps
gaps and characterize the various dimensions for
effective policy and programme application.
Model for Development of Data Centre and Data Bases
119
-- A functional price/cost database will help establish control limits (lower & upper) that are acceptable on
various B&C structures with clear degrees of confidence. This will also help eliminate incidence of
corruption and high degree of cost variation for similar projects within Nigeria; even when compared with
other countries.
-- The NIQS will leverage on these data setsto promote research, learning, knowledge transfer and engage
in robust academic and professional excellence.
-- Successful implementation of the development of Data Centre and the cost data bases will lead to
further development of several data bases, especially in the areas of staff nominal roll, pay roll, capital
stock, finance, etc.
6. BUILDING CAPACITY & CAPABILITIES -- THE IMPERATIVES OF CONSORTIA, PARTNERSHIPS, MERGERS
&ACQUISITIONS by Brig.-Gen. [Dr.] Maude Aminun-Kano, FCNA, MNIM, CPA, CITN, CFA
--The concept of forming consortia in businesses is quite ancient. Many people in business are aware that if
they band together with people who have similar interests, they can create a powerful force to negotiate
better contracts and pricing along with a more favorable business climate.
-- Mergers and Acquisitions [M&A] are aspects of corporate strategy, corporate finance and management
dealing with the buying, selling, dividing and combining of different companies and similar entities that can
help an enterprise grow rapidly in its sector or location of origin, or a new field or new location, without
creating a subsidiary, other child entity or using a joint venture.
-- The dominant rationale used to explain M&A activity is that acquiring firms seek improved financial
performance. Considerations for M&A include:
 Economy of scale
 Economy of scope
 Increased revenue or market share
 Cross-selling
 Synergy
 Taxation
 Geographical or other diversification
 Resource transfer
 Vertical integration
 Hiring
 Absorption of similar businesses under single management
 Diversification
 Manager’s hubris
Empire-building
 Manager's compensation.
7. CHALLENGES OF REGULATING A PROFESSION IN A STATEOFINERTIA – THE CHALLENGES OF
MANDATORY CONTINUING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT by Godson O. Moneke, FNIQS, RQS
-- Regulating is not a job in which you make many friends. But, society must pass through some measure of
regulation to protect its norms and ethos, the absence of which in the extreme case can lead to a state of
anomie in the social milieu.
-- The responsibility for regulating the profession of quantity surveying in Nigeria is vested in the Quantity
Surveyors Registration Board of Nigeria (QSRBN); backed by the “Quantity Surveyors Registration, etc.
Decree No. 31 of 1986 [now Cap 383 LFN 1990]”.
-- The Board has a responsibility to define, promote, oversee, support and regulate the affairs of members
of the quantity surveying profession. The licensure of quantity surveyors, validation of competence
standards and enforcement of adherence to ethical code are under this purview.
-- The ranking of the established professions in the United States based on the above milestones shows
surveying first [George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln were all Land Surveyors before
entering politics] followed by medicine, actuarial science, law, civil engineering, architecture and
accounting.
120
-- A profession arises when any trade or occupation transforms itself through “the development of formal
qualifications based upon education, apprenticeship and examinations, the emergence of regulatory bodies
with powers to admit and discipline members of the profession and some degree of monopoly rights”.
-- Professions are typically regulated by statute, with the responsibilities of enforcement given to respective
professional regulatory bodies.
-- The first Nigerian Chartered Quantity Surveyor, Chief Emmanuel O. Nwogu [PPNIQS, FNIQS, RQS]
qualified only in 1962/1963. It took another four years for the next set of Nigerian quantity surveyors to
join the boat.
-- The profession is the biggest victim of the subjugation and other negative externalities that defined
colonialism in Nigeria. It is possible that because their work involved advising on the expenditure of big
money, the colonialists did not want to train and involve Nigerians in such sensitive areas!
The first President of the NIQS was Chief Adetona Balogun [PPNIQS, FNIQS, RQS]; and its first Secretary,
Apollonius Obiajulu Nwanze [PPNIQS, FNIQS, RQS].
-- Early acquaintance with the profession was at the Colleges of Technology in Enugu and Zaria [the forerunners to the University of Nigeria--Enugu Campus and Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria]. It was only in the
1970s that Polytechnics started running formal Diploma and Council for National Academic Awards (CNAA)
Degrees in the United Kingdom. Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria started the Quantity Surveying degree
programme in 1971, while the University of Ife [now OAU] followed suit in 1976. It is curious that today,
University of Nigeria [Enugu Campus] -- knowing the pedigree of the defunct Nigerian College of
Technology, Enugu -- runs all built-environment programmes except Quantity Surveying.
-- Presently, there are about 60 Universities and Polytechnics running quantity surveying Programmes,
though most are yet to be accredited by the QSRBN.
-- The QSRBN’s Register of Fully-Registered Quantity Surveyors contains 1841 names as at 12th July, 2012;
while the Register for Temporary-Registered Quantity Surveyors contains just 9 names as at same date.
There are also only 140 registered practising firms in the Board’s Register. Of some 60 Universities and
Polytechnics offering quantity surveying in Nigeria, only 13 were accredited by the Board and even at that,
the respective tenures of their accreditations have since expired.
-- In the past 22 years of the existence of the Board, only four induction/orientation exercises were
conducted for newly-registered quantity surveyors, two of which were done in the last two years that the
current Board has been in existence. Yet, such induction/orientation ceremonies are important
programmes in the annual calendars of professional regulatory bodies all over the world. Over this period
as well, the Board held 7 Continuing Professional Development events out of which 5 were done by the
current Board in the 2 years of its existence.
-- There are quantity surveyors who have had no contact with the Board since they were first registered in
1990 and so on.
-- The Board is a statutory Agency of the Federal Government under the supervision of the FMLHUD, and all
its staff are public servants by definition. Why would government not appropriate funds for their salaries
and welfare in accordance with public service rules as personnel costs remain a first charge on the Budget
Appropriation Act of the Federal Government.
-- Only 9 non-Nigerians are licensed by the Board to practise quantity surveying in Nigeria, but there are
over 200 non-Nigerians practising quantity surveying today without certification by the Board. This is in
clear violation of and contempt for the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Some of these persons are
engaged in projects in which Federal Government funds are involved.
-- There are almost 4000 persons practising as professional quantity surveyors either as firms or in
employment; yet less than 2000 are registered by the Board. These unregistered quantity surveyors have
become loose cannons who unleash terrible damage on the profession.
-- With the paucity of reliable data, Nigeria is the worse for it.When we supply these agencies of
government with wrong data, it affects the reliability of their work and ipso facto, impacts negatively on our
national economy, productively, welfare, and most importantly, job provisioning for the profession within
the economy.
-- Knowledge is power and a knowledgeable person is an informed person on the subject-matter under
reference. Knowledge is also expensive, but not as expensive as ignorance.
-- Continuing Professional Development [CPD] is a structured approach to learning to help ensure
competence to practise, taking-in knowledge, skills and practical experience.
121
-- The Board seeks the co-operation of all to report any person practising quantity surveying in Nigeria who
is not registered by the Board. The Board is poised to protect its boundaries from infiltration and will
prosecute any person found violating the enabling ACT..
-- In the final analysis, the raison d’être of the Board is to promote the welfare of registered practitioners
who practise according to the rules and shared values of the profession.
8.[EN] VISIONING FOR THE QUANTITY SURVEYING PROFESSION by Mallam Husaini Dikko, PPNIQS,
FNIQS, RQS
-- Modern organizations operate on paradigms, which underpin their visions. The vision of an organisation
denotes what the organization wants to be or what it wants to be seen and associated with. Every
organization has a vision, mission and goal. The Vision of the QSRBN is to be “The Best Quantity Surveying
Professional Regulatory Body in Africa and one of the best in the World,” while our Mission is “To make
professional ethics, competence, integrity and pursuit of value-for-money, probity and accountability the
central focus in our regulatory role within the Nigeria economy”.
-- Your mission is what you do best every day and your vision is what the future looks like because you do
the mission exceedingly well.
-- We can only achieve our vision of being the best in Africa and the world if:
* We promote professional ethics vigorously.
* Pursue professional competence without waning.
* Promote corporate and personal integrity without ceasing.
* Ensure value-for-money on all projects for the client.
* Promote due process and keep proper records of finances and account of any project we handle.
* Fight corruption and associated vices by all our actions.
-- To promote professional ethics demands that we abide strictly by the code of professional ethics and
eschew any conduct that will bring the profession into ridicule and contempt.
-- Professional competence demands that we should be knowledgeable and good in what we profess. It
implies that we must be properly educated to nest global standards. Our knowledge and skills must be
continually updated to keep pace with technology and emerging trends.
-- Promotion of corporate and personal integrity implies that we must possess the qualities of honesty and
high moral principles. Our knowledge, skills and other qualities count for nothing if they do not translate to
achieving value-for-money on projects that we handle for our clients.
-- The Board is willing to partner with the anti-corruption agencies like the EFCC, ICPC, Code of Conduct
Bureau and BPP. Equally, we intend to foster collaborative relationship with development partners and
international Agencies in the areas of how best to further their desire to help Nigeria in areas of
accountability, transparency and anti-corruption crusade.
-- It is important that we build our vision for the profession on its core competences, strengths, unique
capabilities, resources and human assets.
-- The poor recognition given to the profession of quantity surveying in Nigeria has denied this country of a
very valuable expertise and cost her enormous resources through leakages and corruption. Construction
projects costs in Nigeria are the highest in the world. Resources, which could be used to realize many
projects are often frittered on a single project.
-- If quantity surveyors are given their rightful place in our economy, these leakages in the system can be
blocked and the Nigeria economy and people will be the better for it.
-- But, if the Quantity Surveyor is given the enormous responsibility of managing project costs in Nigeria,
how prepared is he to meet the challenges posed by such a regime?
-- Our profession is anchored on financial probity, value-for-money, accountability and efficient allocation
of resources thus making the quantity surveyor the most important and indispensable player in the valuechain matrix. To respond to these expectations will demand that we embrace “new thinking” and
methodologies. We must define a broad spectrum of competences in which quantity surveyors must hone
their specializations.
-- Possible areas of specialization, which will be fashioned in collaboration with the NIQS, include:Civil,
Pipeline & Process Cost Engineering; Procurement, Project & Cost Auditing; Project Management &
Arbitration; Mechanical, Electronic & Electrical Engineering; and Management of Professional forms &
Service Delivery.
122
-- The path for academic progression within the profession can only be charted by quantity surveyors
themselves.
-- The NIQS should also set up a Quantity Surveying Academy/School to run a Post-MNIQS programme in
the above specialisations.
-- Envisioning for QS will require a clear understanding of the meaning and purpose of vision, mission,
strategy, policies, values and goals for any organization. The QSRBN has formulated these.
-- Academic progression within the profession is very important. While RQS shall explore opportunities
available for specialization within the profession, the NIQS should further enrich the content and quantity
of the curriculum for its examinations so that those who pass through such examination will have no
problem registering with the QSRBN.
-- A Nigerian proverb states: “You can only achieve your aim when you start putting your thought into
action because fine words do not produce food”.

2012 Induction/Orientation for
Newly-Registered Quantity Surveyors & Firms
and Professional Clinic on Ethics & Values
Theme: Professional Ethics & Values
Shehu Yar’Adua Centre, Abuja
Ethics, Values and Integrity constitute the bases for the identity of every decent human society.
Meaningful and sustainable development can only be assured when the relationships, actions and
general conduct are anchored on sound morals, principles and integrity.
There were over 400 participants at the twin-event, which was declared open by H.E. Senator Dr.
Bukar Abba Ibrahim, CON, FNIQS, RQS; Chairman, Senate Committee on Lands, Housing & Urban
Development. The inductees for 2012 comprised 247 individuals and 19 firms, and theInduction
was the first that incorporated a professional clinic.
There were inspiring, thought-provoking Welcome Address, Goodwill Messages and Opening
Remarks as well as presentations on such germane issues as Achieving Value-for-Money in Service
Delivery; Total Quality Management & Decision-Making based on Facts, and Ethics, Values &
Integrity.
Welcome Address by Mallam Husaini A. Dikko, PPNIQS, FNIQS, RQS; President, QSRBN
-- A key mandate of the QSRBN is to determine who a QS is and hence, who can practise quantity
surveying in Nigeria. Implicit in this mandate is the duty to design systems, processes and
procedures through which the competence, knowledge, skills and character of a person wishing to
be a RQS is profiled.
-- This ceremony is a major milestone in the professional development and advancement of the
inductees.
-- Ethics, Values and Integrity are critical factors in professionalism. The incorporation of a
Professional Clinic on Ethics and Values underscores their importance in the life of a RQS.
-- QS build their reputation on prudent and expert management of their clients’ resources. They
must, therefore, strive to earn and sustain the trust and confidence of all those who use their
services.
-- The Transformation Agenda of President Jonathan’s administration imposes a lot of
responsibility on the RQS. We must assist Government to plug the current loopholes and checkmate project cost inflation in Nigeria.
-- This Board will not compromise on professional ethics, values and integrity. Your decisions and
advice as RQS must be rational, scientific and facts-based, devoid of guess work and personal
idiosyncrasies.
-- The governing board of the QSRBN is in the process of re-positioning it to discharge its mandate.
-- B&C projects have become instruments for money laundering; and RQS have a patriotic duty to
monitor construction costs to chec-kmate and block money leakages.
-- The current high cost of construction projects is due to the exclusion of QS from performing
their cost functions; and we have a duty to support this Government to fight corruption, especially
in the built-environment industry.
-- Today’s ceremony [inducting 247 new and 19 practising firms] brings the total number of firms
to about 2,000 and 150 respectively.
-- We are aware that some persons [especially non-Nigerians] are practising as QS in Nigeria in
clear violation of the QSRBN Act CAP 383 LFN 1990. The Board is compiling the relevant list and
will commence their prosecution in the courts soon.
141
Goodwill Message by Mr. Agele J. Alufohai, FNIQS, RQS; President, NIQS
“Go Ye Into the Political Kingdom”
-- Great insights occur into human existence people while we are engaged in doing totally leisurely
things.
-- Today, the priority of economic strategy is to enhance the quality of economic reform and
deliver its benefits to a much broader segment of Nigerians. One of the critical challenges is to
leverage our much-improved macro-economic performance to initiate scores of big-ticket
infrastructure projects either through direct public funding or procurement through PPPs.
– There is also the political imperative of securing value-for-money in public procurement.
-- If Nigeria is to achieve its economic potential, then we must join the league of advanced and
emerging economies where QS mandatorily act as guardians of the public interest in securing
value-for-public-money.
-- Our inductees are coming into the profession at a watershed in our history. It is a good time to
start out as a QS. QS will not be given their rightful place in B&C unless they make Nigerians
thoroughly aware of our skills and roles in the construction and infrastructure procurement.
-- Though we have taken steps to bring about this awareness and acceptance, much more needs
to be done to elevate knowledge about and the status of our profession.
-- Democracy gives QS a chance to make life better for people but this is an opportunity to
strategize to achieve your ends. However, good things do not come naturally even in a democracy.
-- Perception is everything. Inductees should endeavour always to be their best. They have to read
widely if we are to take our rightful place as advisers on capital investment policy and in many
other areas where QS ought to take a lead in assuring that value is gained from the expenditure of
scarce public resources.
-- I assure you that the leaders of the industry are committed to creating opportunities for your
generation more than we have enjoyed. We would be fulfilling our roles by taking steps to ensure
that Nigerians associate the struggle for integrity and prudence in public procurement with the
skills of QS.
-- We would have failed if we continued with business as usual.
Keynote Address by Mr. Sylbriks Obiriki, SSA to the President/National Co-ordinator, SERVICOM
-- The timing of this event is most apt, taking the steps being put in place by Mr. President to reposition Nigeria’s public serving Agencies such as QSRBN through the Transformation Agenda.
-- The theme of this ceremony, ‘Professional Ethics and Values’ is an eloquent testimony of the
efforts the Boardis making towards entrenching the culture of continuous improvement in
delivering those services for which it has been mandated. I sincerely hope that such commitment
and enthusiasm as demonstrated is sustained for the continuous improvement of QS activities in
Nigeria.
Given that the mandate of this body, it is very critical for all Members to embrace principles that
promote the culture of continuous improvement as being advocated by the SERVICOM Office.
-- You have a crucial role in determining the success or otherwise of governance in our country
because of your strategic position and capacity to create the enabling environment in which QS
activities will thrive. You should have a customer-focused mindset, while maintaining the core
ethics and values of your Profession.
-- The initiative to improve service delivery in Nigeria cannot be achieved in isolation of other
fundamental management changes within Government Agencies.
-- To date, over 6,000 civil servants have been trained in different aspects of service delivery by
SERVICOM Institute. We have also developed a bench-marking instrument known as the
SERVICOM Index, which is used to determine the compliance level of MDAs to the Service Delivery
Initiative.
-- I am optimistic that the successful induction and orientation ceremony for new RQS and
practising firms will usher a new era of efficiency and effectiveness in the sector in line with Mr.
142
President’s vision for a transformed Nigeria. I urge you occasion to imbibe the culture of
Professional Ethics and Values in all your activities.
Opening Remarks by H.E. Senator Dr. Bukar Abba Ibrahim, CON, FNIQS, RQS;
Chairman, Senate Committee on Lands, Housing & Urban Development
-- I commend your initiative on the QS Professional Clinic, which arguably is the first attempt by
any regulatory body in the Nigerian built-environment to address the vexed issue of professional
ethics and value in this kind of setting.
-- Professionals are the custodians of the moral conscience and ethos of any nation and should
operate as role models for all that is good for national development and well-being. Sadly today,
many professionals have in the mad pursuit of lucre betrayed the basic ideals on which
professionalism is founded.
-- Adherence to professional ethics and values can make a big, positive impact in the fight against
corruption in which the QS should be in the forefront. We should earn the trust and confidence of
our clients by the way we carry out our professional activities.
-- Professionals are never part of the moneyed class even in developed countries. They belong to
the middle class, which is the most important segment in a nation’s economic stratification.
-- The greatest assets of a professional are his skills, intellect and knowledge -- priceless assets.
-- I congratulate the Inductees and admonish them to keep faith with the oath of professional
allegiance and code of professional ethics. They have joined the team of ambassadors of the QS
profession and the prism through which society sees the profession.
-- Your position as QS is very delicate and sensitive; therefore, you must conduct your professional
activities with dignity and integrity.
-- With more quantity surveyors joining the project team of the numerous construction projects of
the Federal, State and Local Governments, value-for- money would be achieved and more funds
become available for other projects begging for allocation.
-- I commend the QSRBN for organizing the Professional Clinic on Ethics & Values to equip the
Inductees and older RQS to tackle emerging challenges.
Main presentations and their highlights:
VALUE-FOR-MONEY IN SERVICE DELIVERY -- Sylbriks G. Obiriki, Senior Special Assistant to the
President/National Coordinator SERVICOM
-- The quality of governance is determined by the quality of service delivered to citizens and how
much such services have met their needs and expectations.
-- Delivering public service has been a challenging task to successive Governments.
-- Progressive-minded public administrators have come to understand that the challenge of
service is to ensure that institutions remain accountable to the people, including the poorest and
most vulnerable.
-- Accountability is a key ingredient of good governance in that it ensures that Governments are
answerable to their people for the way they run the country. This is the true test of public service
delivery.
-- In Nigeria, public service is being radically revolutionalized and re-positioned to enhance the
quality of services rendered to the public through the office of SERVICOM.
-- Public service delivery has basic principles, which include: Consultation, Service Standards,
Courtesy,Information, Openness & Transparency, Responsiveness and Value-for-Money.
-- The public have a right to know more about the way MDAs are run, how well they perform, the
resources they consume, and who is in charge.
-- Putting the Principles of Public Service Delivery into practice is the major challenge now facing
the public service.
143
-- For public servants to deliver good service, ethics and values guiding civil service should be put
in practice to give value-of-money.
-- For any association, it is very important the way members follow its guidelines, because this can
directly affect their common fortunes – success or failure.
-- Ethics have become an organizational priority; neither a luxury nor an option. Today, there is
growing impatience with selfish and irresponsible actions that impoverish many, while enriching
the devious.
-- Ethics will not only affect decision-making but ultimately institutional culture. It goes beyond
competence, experience, intelligence and drive.
-- Rushworth M. Kidder [founder & president, Institute for Global Ethics] identified five core values
in every culture worldwide: honesty, respect, responsibility, fairness and compassion. A valuesbased culture will make these core values the driving force in decision-making.
-- Organizations rooted in ethics and values reflect common language, commitment at the top,
and moral courage
-- The great elder statesman, Nelson Mandela reminds us [in The Long Walk to Freedom] that
“After climbing a great hill, one only finds that there are many more hills to climb”.
-- Improving public service delivery is not a one-off exercise; but an on-going and dynamic process,
because as standards are met, they must be progressively raised.
-- There is a great deal to do, and progress will sometimes be frustratingly slow; but the task is one
of the most worthwhile and rewarding that the public service faces, and the need is urgent, so
there is no time to lose.
-- Our integrity will be our legacy. We implore you all to carry on your task in the development of
appropriate initiatives and resources for re-awakening and sustaining interest in the mathematical
sciences, as well as in curbing the dramatic decline in building and erecting affordable and durable
houses that will stand the test of time.
-- We also leave you all with the Golden Rule of SERVICOM: serve others as you would want to be
served.
FACT-BASED DECISION MAKING AND TOTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT -- Sir Henry C. Eteama,
Consultant Statistician/Economist, Statistical Systems Management Consulting Ltd.
Induction ceremonies of professional bodies are majorly for pomp and pageantry but the QSRBN
has made its 2012 Induction Ceremony/Orientation for new RQS a serious business activity.
-- As a Body Corporate, the Board is steadily working towards addressing the key mandate as
enshrined in its enabling Act.
-- Overall performance of QS and firms in the discharge of professional services will be a key
indicator for assessing the success or failure of the Board.
-- Fact-Based Decision Making has long historical antecedents. The Holy Bible reveals [Book of
Numbers 13: 17-20] that Prophet Moses conducted a sample survey to assess the worthiness of
the land his people, the Israelites, intended to occupy. Therefore, facts-based decision-making is
not a modern science.
-- In every country, there are three systems of data production: System of Administrative Statistics
[SAS], Integrated Survey of Households [ISH], and Integrated Survey of Establishments [ISE].
-- Processes of data collection/production include;
* Design and production of instruments
* Engagement of field operation officers
* Data processing
* Data analysis
* Validation exercise
* Report writing
* Dissemination
144
* Data archiving.
-- TQM is a management philosophy that builds customer-driven learning organizations dedicated
to total customer satisfaction with continuous improvement in the effectiveness and efficiency of
the organization and its processes.
-- Quality is total.
-- Quality is defined by customers.
-- Quality reflects process thinking.
-- Quality expresses good management style.
-- Quality shows that employees are totally involved, empowered and part of the ownership.
-- People resist change due to: fear of loss of control, too much uncertainty, elements of surprise,
the difference effect, need for familiar surroundings, personal concerns, ripple effects, more
work and real threats.
-- Successful TQM implementation should reflects the following features:
* Top Management Commitment & Leadership.
* Impetus for Change.
* Programme Goals.
* Training.
* Programme Design.
* Programme Implementation.
* Rewards and Recognition.
* Performance Measurement.
* Resistance to TQM Programme.
-- Facts-based decision-making and TQM cultures are recommended for the QSRBN.
-- Facts-based decision-making facilitates change and transformation by introducing objectivity,
consensus and decision confidence.
-- TQM will facilitate quality leadership, team work and provide services that will enhance
professional presence, ethics and values in the practice of QS in Nigeria.
PROFESSIONAL ETHICS, VALUES AND INTEGRITY -- Godson O. Moneke, FNIQS, RQS; Registrar,
QSRBN
-- Ethics, Values and Integrity are three words that hone their importance on the moral principles
of what is right or wrong.
-- It is the code of ethics that distinguishes a professional body from a trade union. Any group,
therefore, which does not place premium on ethics, values and integrity, cannot meet the basic
requirements to qualify as a professional body.
-- The QSRBN cannot effectively discharge its Mandate if it does not make professional ethics,
competence, integrity and pursuit of value-for-money, probity and accountability the central focus
in its regulatory role. These are the principles on which the Board anchors its mission as an
institution.
-- Professional ethics is a set of standards adopted by a professional community. The code of
ethics gives us boundaries within which we must stay in our professional careers.
-- Professional ethics are marked by:
Honesty
Integrity
Transparency
Accountability
Confidentiality
Objectivity
Respectfulness
Obedience to the law.
145
-- Values are beliefs about what is right or wrong and what is important. A value system emerges
as a set of values and measures that one can observe as consistent with expectations.
-- The value system of a society is often measured by how it differentiates between Status and
Class. A society that uses these two words as if they mean the same thing and accords them
equal recognition and treatment, operates a perverted value system.
-- Class reflects nature/extent of access to economic resources and power.
-- Status is the honour/prestige attached to one’s position in society/entity/organization.
-- Integrity is a concept of consistency of actions, values, methods, measures, principles,
expectations and outcomes. Integrity is not only a refusal to engage in behaviour that evades
responsibility, but also as an understanding of different modes/styles in which discourse attempts
to uncover a particular truth.
-- Integrity requires three steps: “discerning what is right and what is wrong; acting on what you
have discerned even at personal cost; and saying openly that you are acting on your
understanding of what is right from wrong”.
-- Quantity Surveyors must:
* Promote professional ethics vigorously.
* Pursue professional competence without waning.
* Promote corporate and personal integrity without ceasing.
* Ensure that their clients obtain value-for-money on all projects in which they are engaged.
* Promote due process and keep proper records of finances and account of any project they
handle.
* Fight corruption and associated vices by all their actions and professional activities.
-- Ethics, Values and Integrity are at the heart of the profession of quantity surveying such that no
quantity surveyor worth his registration status can afford to operate outside the boundaries and
prescriptions.
-- Implicit in the relationship between the quantity surveyor and his client is trust.

COMMUNIQUÉ OF THE 1ST ANNUAL BUILDING &CONSTRUCTION ECONOMIC ROUND-TABLE
(BCERT 1). JUNE 14 & 15, 2012
The 2-Day Economic Round-Table on Building and Construction, with the theme, “Setting Agenda
for Nigeria’s Economic Development through the Building & Construction Sector” is the first in a
proposed annual series.
The Round-Table attracted about 300 participants from the public and private sectors and was
declared officially open by Nigeria’s Vice-President, H.E. Arc. Mohammed Namadi Sambo, GCON,
fnia – in his own right an active practitioner in the sector.
Over the two days, 14 key presentations were made by professionals in various specialties. Areas
in focus include economics, challenges, finance, housing, infrastructure, capacity development,
public procurement, public-private partnerships, concessioning, legal & regulatory frameworks as
well as prospects for the future.
There were also 7 Syndicate Group sessions each of which covered two presentations. Their
OBSERVATIONS include the following:
1. There is the need to integrate State and Local Governments in the sector’s scheme of things, to
enhance harmonized policy implementation at all tiers of governance.
2. The development of a robust Data Base for the sector is imperative.
3. Similarly, the Building and Construction Sector would benefit immensely from the establishment
of an Infrastructure Development Bank and Construction Industry Board as exist in other
countries.
4. The Public Procurement Act [PPA] is designed to instill sanity in the system and should be
supported. The Act should permeate other tiers of governance and indeed the organized private
sector.
5. The Bureau of Public Procurement [BPP] has done reasonably well and should be strengthened
to institutionalize the culture of value-for-money in public procurements.
6. The choice of Public-Private Partnerships [PPPs] in infrastructure development is inevitable. It is
a critical success factor, if we get it right.
7. Private sector Consultants are key success factors for the sector.
8. There is also the need to properly enlighten contributors to the National Housing Fund [NHF]
through public disclosures.
9. Housing should be declared a Right, not a privilege.
10. The expression “Low-Cost Housing” appears to be a misnomer due to the poor income levels
of target beneficiaries. Government should rather lay emphasis on “Social Housing”.
11.
Clearly, many of the Primary Mortgage Institutions [PMIs] are not performing satisfactorily.
12. Since most of the building and construction materials are imported, Government should
reduce import duties on them as well as actively encourage local production.
The Round-Table consequently RESOLVED as follows:
1. The leadership of Government needs to exercise political will and demonstrate commitment to
the growth and development of the Building and Construction sector. It should identify the sector
as pivotal to sustainable national development.
2. All hands, especially stakeholders, must be on deck to move the sector forward. Everyone at
the Round-Table should be a change agent in this regard.
3. Decision makers in the public and private segments of the sector should increase investments
in capacity building [training & re-training] as well as research & development.
176
4. The National Assembly [NASS] should be enjoined to review the Land Use Act to enhance
Housing development in the country.
5. Members of the NASS should be persuaded to submit to needs assessment processes in the
selection of constituency projects.
6. The QSRBN and allied professional bodies should collaborate with such other relevant agencies
as the Independent Corrupt Practices & Other Related Offences Commission [ICPC], National
Bureau of Statistics (NBS), Bureau of Public Procurement (BPP) and Economic & Financial Crimes
Commission [EFCC] to help sanitize the sector and add value to the
quality of project
outcomes.
7. In this regard, all stakeholders must work to combat corruption and hold the relevant actors
accountable for the efficient utilization of resources.
8. There should be improved co-ordination among professional agencies in the sector, and
between clients, consultants and contractors towards achieving better deliverables. Synergy
between and among sector professionals, professional bodies and regulatory agencies is
imperative.
9. In adopting concessioning as an infrastructure development model, priority should be accorded
to local content.
10. Practitioners in the sector should adopt strategic approaches to project implementation.
There is the need for innovativeness to cope with the growing challenges of the sector.
11. Technocrats involved in policy and project implementation should be shielded from political
influence and pressure.
12. Government should intervene to set single-digit interest on loans for projects in the sector.
13. The Urban Development Bank of Nigeria [UDBN] should be properly sensitized to the
stakeholders through intensive enlightenment programmes.
14. The entire mortgage banking system, including relevant legislation, should be reviewed.
15. The Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria [FMBN] should be strengthened to fulfill its mandate
more effectively. A major step is to boost its capital base.
16. Government should intervene to make land more readily available at affordable costs.
17. There are a universal imperative for national re-orientation to sensitize Nigerians to the critical
roles of the Building and Construction sector.
B.
COMMINIQUE OF THE QUANTITY SURVEYING ASSEMBLY AND COLLOQUIUM.
SEPTEMBER 28 & 29, 2011
A two day workshop organized by the Quantity Surveyors Registration Board of Nigeria (QSRBN) in
collaboration with the Nigeria Institute of Quantity Surveyors (NIQS), with the theme; QUANTITY
SURVEYING AND THE ANTI- CORRUPTION CRUSADE - ACHIEVING VALUE FOR MONEY IN PROJECT
COST IN NIGERIA
was held at Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre, Abuja, between September 28 &
29, 2011.
This forum attracted over 500 participants and was officially declared open by Surveyor Emma
Ogbile, Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Land, Housing and Urban Development who
represented the Hon. Minister, Ms Amal Pepple.
Thirteen Scientific presentations were made by professionals in various specialties. Area of focus
on; included Project Monitoring and Evaluation; High Cost of Construction; the changing Role of
the Quantity Surveyor; the Role of Statistics and Cost Data in the Anti-graft crusade; Taxation
177
Issues; Public Procurement Act as an Anti-Corruption tool; Knowledge Content and QS
Professional Requirement, Need for Specializations/ Faculties in Quantity Surveying Practice, etc.
There were also six Syndicate sessions, each of which covered two or more presentations.
The 2011 Quantity Surveying Assembly and Colloquium observe that;
1. Corruption pervades all sectors of the economy and has become endemic to sustainability
of Nigeria economic growth and development.
2. Moral value and are at its lowest ebb.
3. Professionalism is paramount if high cost of construction projects is going to be minimized.
4. There is non inclusion of Quantity Surveyors in the execution of key construction projects
in the country.
5. Relevant training tools and facilities required for Quantity Surveyor training and education
in Nigeria is not available and where they are available, they are in inadequate quantities.
6. One area which calls for serious scrutiny is the cost of roads and highway projects for this
has over the years become the biggest culprit on the issue of corruption in the construction
industry.
7. The building and construction industry is a potent economic driver, which can be used to
create wealth, generate employment, increase our GDP etc and as such, the leaders of the
board and institute should be noticed that NIQS should be included in the procurement act
which is at its drafting stage.
8. The need for a database for professional bodies and its subsequent creation will help to
eliminate quacks and tally those who are registered.
9. The desire to change names in most professions has become necessary due to overlapping
of functions and is not peculiar to Quantity Surveyors.
10. There is high level of reliance on foreign companies for public projects should be minimized
and the public should be sensitized on the invaluable role of Nigeria Quantity surveyors.
The 2011 Quantity Surveying Assembly and Colloquium recommend that;
1. All the three arms of Government should be fully committed in the fight against corruption
and adopt Transparency as deliberate policy.
2. All stakeholders should be given opportunity to discharge their duties without any interest
or undue influence.
3. There should be involvement of qualified personnel of Quantity surveyor
4. Companies should be made to pay severity tax for exploration of natural resources and
withholding tax should be paid immediately the contract is discharged
5. Statistics should be used as a veritable tool in the fight against corruption.
6. QRSBN should liaise with relevant stakeholders to develop robust database and a data
centre on key indicators that can be accessed.
7. The Quantity Surveyor should be part of the major project conceptualization in the
construction projects.
10. Adequate sensitization is needed to emphasize awareness of Quantity surveyor
responsibilities in the management of key construction projects.
11. NIQS and QSRBN should take up the challenge to introduce and formulate engineering
curricular Quantity surveying discipline.
178
12. Students and lecturers should attend technical workshops regularly for skill enhancement
13. NIQS and QSRBN should sustain efforts in organizing this type of Assembly & Colloquium
on annual basis.
14. The Board (QSRBN) and NIQS should collaborate to achieve value for mney in projects
costs.
15. The Ministry of Justice should be noticed that NIQS should be included in the procedure
act which is at its drafting stage.
16. The Federal Government of Nigeria should consider including a Quantity Surveyor on the
board of ICPC.
17. A recommendation was made for a name change for the profession, considering the
evolving role of Quantity Surveyors the name should be all encompassing.
18. Adequate funds should also be made available to QS Departments to sponsor staff and
students to academics/ professional seminars, workshops and conferences.
19. The anti-corruption agencies such as the EFCC and ICPC, should initiate legislation that
should establish Project Cost Audit reporting, as a requirement establishing the cost
transaction on a construction project as FINAL.

D.
COMMUNIQUÉ OF THE 2ND ANNUAL BUILDING &CONSTRUCTION ECONOMIC ROUND-TABLE
(BCERT 2).JULY 12 & 13, 2012.
Exactly one year ago, the Quantity Surveyors Registration Board of Nigeria [QSRBN] organized and
fulfilled the maiden Building and Construction Economic Round-Table [BCERT 1]; with the central
theme: Setting Agenda for Nigeria’s Economic Development through the Building & Construction
Sector. This time around, July 12—13, 2012, BCERT 2 was held within the framework of the Role
of the Building & Construction Sector in Achieving Vision 20:2020.
BCERT 2 attracted over 200 participants from amongst public and private sector organizations and
professionals. The import of the forum was further underscored by the repeated representation of
the highest level of governance in the country – The Presidency.
The opening ceremony was chaired by His Excellency, Arc. Mohammed Namadi Sambo, GCON,
Vice-President, Federal Republic of Nigeria [represented by Ms. Amal Pepple, CFR, Honourable
Minister of Lands, Housing & Urban Development].
Aside from weighty preliminary addresses and goodwill messages, a number of authoritative
presentations were made by resource persons with cognate experience in their relevant fields.
Included in focus are: Vision 20:2020 in Global Perspective; the Building and Construction Sector
Status in the Nigerian Economy; the Public-Private Partnership Model for Speedy Development
of the Sector; Value-Added & and Fixed Capital Formation in the Sector; Construction
Professionals and a Vibrant Building & Construction Sector; the Sector as an Employment
Generator and Poverty Alleviator; Achieving Value-for-Money for the Sector, among others.
Following a Syndicate Session, participants made the following Observations:
1. As a key component of the Nigerian Economy, the Building & Construction Sector is a very
critical success factor for the achievement of Vision 20:2020.
2. The Federal Government of Nigeria has recognized the sector as one of the prime drivers
of economic growth & development; and similarly acknowledges, commends and supports
the Annual BCERT series.
3. The Building & Construction Sector is also acknowledged as a virile tool for capital
formation and wealth creation, especially as it permeates virtually all segments of the
Economy, Polity and wider Society.
181
4. The current security situation in the country is a major cause for concern.
5. Poor and Weak infrastructural base renders an economy less competitive.
6. Nigeria is experiencing many structural defects and deficiencies, which illustrate the overall
poor level of investments in the Sector.
7. Corrupt practices are at the roots of all the inadequacies in the sector.
8. Since Government can no longer bear the burden of development alone, PPPs are essential
to strengthening the Building & Construction Sector to play a role in the attainment of
Vision 20:202.
Deriving from the above, participants made the following Recommendations:
1. Government and other stakeholders should facilitate massive investments in the Building
& Construction Sector for it to make decent contributions towards attaining Vision
20:2020. In the same vein, efforts should be made to ensure more efficient utilization of
what is allocated to the sector.
2. Government and its relevant agencies should adopt more pro-active measures to contain
the general security challenges in the country.
3. Quantity Surveyors, Government and related professionals and organizations should
fashion out ways and means of reducing the [high] costs of Building & Construction
projects in Nigeria.
4. Government and QSRBN should intensify measures to instil sanity, particularly
transparency & accountability, in the sector.
5. Government and the sector professionals need to resolve outstanding issues that adversely
affect the sector, such as the Land Use Act; local production of building materials and their
optimum utilization; strengthening the primary mortgage system; social housing; and
Building & Construction project financing.
6. Government should strengthen institutional structures as they relate to the Building &
Construction Sector. Efforts in this direction would include making decent budgetary
allocations to its relevant agencies [including the Federal Ministry of Lands, Housing &
Urban Development, Federal Housing Authority and Federal Mortgage Bank] to enable
them make significant impact on the realization of Vision 20:2020.
7. Government and other relevant agencies should faithfully implement the provisions of the
[new] National Housing Policy.
8. Government should enable the operating environment for the Building & Construction
Sector. Also,
9. Access to funding for Building & Construction Sector projects/activities should be
liberalized.
10. Indigenous Building & Construction Sector contractors should be granted an increasing
share of Government patronage. They should also be encouraged to participate in PPPs.
11. Government should encourage greater investments to improve and expand the nation’s
transportation networks, including roads, railways, airports, sea ports and inland
waterways.
12. There is need for “Off-Budget” financing for the Building & Construction Sector to play
serious roles for Vision 20:2020.
13. Government and its relevant agencies should demonstrate more dedication in the
campaign against corrupt practices in the management of the sector. These include
ensuring the adoption of due processes in public procurement.
14. There should be a standing policy on project continuity.
15. The Bureau of Public Procurement [BPP] should be replicated at the State levels.
16. There should be massive investments in rural and feeder roads to open up the States and
Local Government Areas.
182
17. The Federal and State Governments should pursue measures to boost power supply across
the country.
18. Professionals in the sector should deepen and expand their collaboration in order to give
the sector a pride of place it deserves in the socio-economic agenda of Nigeria.
19. The QSRBN and its partners should explore options to develop a Portal, which incorporates
Data Bases hosted at its headquarters. The Portal would serve several purposes, including
publicities & marketing for professionals, their activities as well as information on
contemporary and emerging issues as they affect the sector.
20. There should be an upward review of service conditions in the public and private segments
of the sector.
21. Increased attention should be paid to capacity building in the sector on a regular basis—
through setting up a Construction Academy and more provisions for scholarships and
internships. More skill areas should be created for the sector.
22. The Building & Construction Sector needs to cultivate and sustain a strong maintenance
culture.
23. Sector professionals should increasingly assume leadership of the Building & Construction
Sector in order to ensure excellence at all times. Leadership should also be by example.
E. COMMUNIQUÉ OF THE 2012 ANNUAL CONFERENCE FOR REGISTERED QUANTITY SURVEYORS.
September 27 & 28, 2012.
Eight years to the target Year 2020, the desire by the Federal Government of Nigeria to get its
economy ranked among the biggest 20 in the world, is increasingly coming into marked focus.
However, as desirable as that goal is, there are concerns over how realistic, how feasible and how
attainable it is. Does quantity surveying have a role to play in the achievement of vision 20:2020? If
yes, how will that be done? What are the challenges and obstacles? Is there a bright horizon for
the profession? These are some of the issues posed to the 2012 Annual Conference for Registered
Quantity Surveyors, organized by the Quantity Surveyors Registration Board of Nigeria [QSRBN] in
collaboration with the Nigerian Institute of Quantity Surveyors [NIQS].
The two-day forum attracted about 500 participants from the stakeholder population in the
building and construction sector. The opening ceremony was undertaken by His Excellency Dr.
Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, GCFR, President, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Nigeria
[ably represented by the Honourable Minister of State for Works, Ambassador Bashir Yuguda].
Other dignitaries at the event included representatives of the Honourable Minister of Lands,
Housing & Urban Development [Ms. Amal Pepple, CFR], former Honourable Minister of the
Federal Capital Territory [Mallam Nasir el-Rufai, OFR, FNIQS, RQS], members of the National
Assembly, Chairman of the Economic & Financial Crimes Commission [Mr. Ibrahim Lamorde] as
well as members of the QSRBN, National Executive of the NIQS and distinguished Quantity
Surveying teachers, Professors Kunle Wahab and King N.O. Nyenke, FNIQS.
Working with the central theme, “Quantity Surveying & Vision 20:2020 – The Imperatives and
Challenges”, the Conference had the benefit of heart-warming, inspiring addresses, and major
presentations on such germane subjects-matter as — Quality Assurance and Service Delivery;
Review of Competencies; Capacity Building & Strengthening of Capabilities; Opportunities &
Options in Oil and Gas; Regulatory Processes vis-a-vis State of Inertia; Setting up a Cost Data
Centre for Price Intelligence; and Visioning & Future Hopes for the QS Profession.
From the presentations and discussions, the Conference made quite a number of Observations
and Recommendations:
183
OBSERVATIONS
1.
The Conference appreciates that President Goodluck Jonathan, GCFR has followed the
activities and initiatives of the QSRBN with keen interest, and that he is committed to the pursuit
of professionalism in the building and construction sector.
2.
The main task of Quantity Surveying is achieving value for money, probity and
accountability in the management of project costs. Efficient management and allocation of
resources are, therefore, fundamental to the profession.
3.
A significant feature of being in the 20:2020 league is the ability to build a vibrant economy
and generate jobs in major sectors of the economy, including manufacturing, construction,
tourism and information technology, for millions of Nigeria’s unemployed citizens.
4.
There is a chain-link between efficient cost management of infrastructure procurement
[provided by Quantity Surveyors], sustainable economic growth and attainment of the Vision
20:2020. The Quantity Surveying profession is, therefore, a most important and indispensable
player in the value-chain matrix.
5.
The Vision of the Quantity Surveyors Registration Board of Nigeria is to be “The Best
Quantity Surveying Professional Regulatory Body in Africa and one of the best in the World”,while
its Mission is “To make professional ethics, competence, integrity and pursuit of value-for-money,
probity and accountability the central focus in our regulatory role within the Nigeria economy”.
6.
By its Mission, the QSRBN needs to use quantity surveying as a potent instrument to
combat corrupt practices in the nation’s building and construction sector, with positive impact for
the economy at large.
7.
Sadly, there is comparatively low recognition for Quantity Surveying in the country. This is
reflected in such appalling statistics as poor funding for the QSRBN; only 1,841 Quantity Surveyors
& 141 firms registered with the Board as against over 4,000 practitioners and hundreds of firms in
the country; only 13 universities and polytechnics accredited by the Board for the study of
Quantity Surveying as against about 60 tertiary institutions running the programme in Nigeria;
poor liaison between several registered Quantity Surveyors and the Board, among others.
8.
The poor appreciation of Quantity Surveying in Nigeria has hadadverse consequences for
the building and construction sector, the economy and society at large. Nigeria is not only denied
invaluable expertise, but has the dubious reputation of having one of the highest costs of
construction projects in the world through leakages and corrupt practices. The Nigerian
environment is characterized by intense frustrations derived from extensive corruption, poor
infrastructure, low level of industrialization and rampant joblessness, which would stultify the
meaningful development of the economy.
9.
In the Nigerian experience, the wide gap between potential and realized opportunity is
traceable to Trust and Transparency. Over time, Governments in Nigeria have not given due
attention to ensuring transparency and consistency in their activities and dealings with the
citizenry; hence Nigerians do not trust Government.
10.
The forum notes the growing interest of such anti-graft agencies as the EFCC in the
activities of Quantity Surveyors and the building and construction sector at large.
11.
The Conference identifies the weak data base of the building and construction sector,
which also negatively affects performance.
12.
From the stark realities of Nigeria’s economic indices, resource allocation the building and
construction sector – the main turf of Quantity Surveyors – have been relatively meagre and
cannot make significant impact en route Vision 20:2020.
13.
The Nigerian Gross Domestic Product [GDP] statistics are derived primarily from the formal
sector; even as it is known that the nation’s informal sector reflects large decent volumes of
productive activities.
184
14.
As Quantity Surveying profession is a principal actor in the building and construction
sector, registered Quantity Surveyors potentially have access to wide-ranging opportunities and
options in the sector.
RECOMMENDATIONS
1.
The Conference urges the Federal Government and its domestic and international partners
to strengthen their commitment to, and boost investments in, the building and construction
sector.
2.
Decision makers should start to instill transparency in the conduct of public affairs as well
as elicit trust in their activities, dealings and relations with the citizenry. In this regard, Quantity
Surveyors are willing and ready to collaborate with the Government to ensure that all projects are
subjected to globally-accepted best practices in cost economics and project management.
3.
The relevant authorities should make efforts to incorporate informal sector activities in the
scheme of things. This is not just to determine the real GDP and related indices, but to boost
Inland Revenue, track and regulate informal activities and check abuses.
4.
It is imperative that Quantity Surveyors consolidate their practice and competitive edge on
the bases of their core competences, strengths, unique capabilities, resources and human assets.
They must, therefore, continuously reinforce professional standards in their ranks in order to
credibly advance their skills and knowledge as the antidote to abandoned projects, contractpadding and other ills that have plagued infrastructural development in the country.
5.
In line with the initiatives of the QSRBN, Quantity Surveyors should begin to envision for
the profession and their practice, not only in relation to the attainment of Vision 20:2020, but to
enable practitioners meet and cope effectively with the growing challenges of the operating
environment. These would involve clear appreciation of the essence of vision, mission, strategy,
policy, values and goals.
6.
Similarly, registered Quantity Surveyors, the QSRBN and the NIQS should strengthen their
relations and synergy for optimal, mutual benefits.
7.
To enable Quantity Surveyors really gain access to and utilize the extensive opportunities
in the building and construction sector, they need to continually strengthen their knowledge base
and widen their horizons. One of the key areas is a multi-disciplinary approach to capacity
building.
8.
Efforts to boost capacity and capabilities in the profession should include promoting the
study of Quantity Surveying in several tertiary institutions, enriched curricular for the study of
Quantity Surveying and the establishment of a Quantity Surveying Academy. The Quantity
Surveyors Registration Board of Nigeria [QSRBN] should organize more fora – such as roundtables, summits and conferences — to enlighten and sensitize the general public on the
importance and relevance of the profession to meaningful national development.
9.
More concerted measures should be taken to promote and project the attributes of the
Quantity Surveying profession as a strategic player in national development.
10.
Efforts should be intensified to ensure that Quantity Surveyors increasing occupy relevant
decision-making positions, particularly in the public sector.
11.
The relevant authorities such as the EFCC, ICPC, Code of Conduct Bureau and BPP should
be encouraged to sustain their foci on the building and construction sector – towards both
checking corrupt practices and freeing the sector to play its full role in the national development
process.
12.
There is the pressing need for a Cost Data Centre to ensure reliable Price Intelligence. This
would lead to the establishment of templates for costing construction projects, especially roads,
highways, complex buildings and bridges, which, at the moment, is chaotic. The determined
Cost Bands would be veritable instruments for checking corruption and contract inflation in the
building and construction sector.
185
13.
There should be strict enforcement of Quantity Surveying regulations, including the Code
of Professional Ethics as means of ensuring Quality Management, Quality Assurance and Quality
Control.
F.
COMMUNIQUÉ OF THE QS PROFESSIONAL CLINIC ON ETHICS AND VALUES. December,
2012
In every decent human society, Ethics and Values constitute the bases for its identity. Whatever
the resource endowments of any group or geographical entity, meaning and sustainable
development can only be assured when the members’ relationships, actions and general conduct
are anchored on sound morals, principles and integrity.
It is in this light that the theme of the 2012 Induction, Orientation for Newly registered Quantity
Surveyors and firms and Clinic for existing registered Quantity Surveyors [RQS] comes into marked
focus. Organised by Quantity Surveyors Registration Board of Nigeria (QSRBN), the twin event,
held on Tuesday, December 11, 2012, at the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Center Abuja reflected a major
milestone for the QS profession, professionals and firms alike. The Induction is the first that
incorporated a professional clinic.
The ceremony was attended by over 400 participants, among who were HE Senator Abba Bukar
Ibrahim, CON, FNIQS, RQS; Chairman, Senate Committee on Lands, Housing & Urban Development
who served as Chairman of the occasion; the Snr. Special Assistant to the President/National Coordinator SERVICOM, (represented by Mrs Nnenna Akajemili) as Guest of Honour. Mallam Husaini
Dikko [President, QSRBN]; Mr. Agele Alufohai [President, NIQS]; Mallam Murtala Mohammed
Aliyu [Vice-President, QSRBN]; other current and past Board members of QSRBN, including Mr.
Godson Moneke [Registrar], Mr. Felix Ewah, Dr. S.I.J. Onwusonye, Professor Yakubu Ibrahim, and
Alhaji Moohamad Y. Adinoyi. The inductees comprised 247 individuals and 19 firms.
Aside from the inspiring, thought-provoking Welcome Address, Goodwill Messages, Opening
Remarks and Vote of Thanks, there were three main presentations to the Clinic. They focused on
such compelling issues as Achieving value-for-money in service delivery; Total Quality
Management & Decision-making based on facts as well as Ethics, Values & Integrity.
From the addresses, main presentations and comments, quite a number of observations were
made:
Observations
1. Ethics, Values and Integrity are critical elements in professionalism; hence, the importance
of the Professional Clinic incorporated into the QS Induction ceremony.
2. The reputation of Quantity Surveyors is largely derived from their prudent and expert
management of clients’ resources.
3. Registered Quantity Surveyors [RQS] are key success factors for the Goodluck
administration’s Transformation Agenda, anchored on Vision 20:2020.
4. Building & Construction [B&C] projects are major conduits for money laundering and
related sharp practices, which RQS can help check.
5. Sadly, the current high/excessive costs of B&C projects in the country are due principally to
the exclusion/relative neglect of RQS from their costing functions.
6. There are some non-registered Nigerians and foreigners practising as QS in Nigeria, in clear
violation of the QSRBN Act.
186
7. There is the need for a behavioural change [indeed, re-orientation] from business-as-usual
in order to really add value to QS services.
8. As presently worded, the Mandate of the QSRBN is extensive enough to promote and
sustain the strategic roles of the RQS in national development.
9. From experience, it has been discovered that a lot of decision-making in the B&C and
indeed other sectors, are not fact-based. This has engendered corruption, inefficiency,
excessive costs and other sharp practices.
Recommendations
Deriving mostly from the fore-going, it is recommended that:
1. RQS must perform their patriotic duty to monitor and check money laundering in the B&C
sector.
2. The QSRBN, and RQS alike should intensify efforts to flush out those practising as QS
without due authorization.
3. RQS should ensure that the generality of Nigerians associates them with efforts to
enthrone prudence and integrity in public procurement.
4. RQS should insist on application of best practices [service standards/service charter] that
are, realistic and attainable.
5. Within the framework of applying best practices, the Nigerian system should regularly
reward good/top rate performance to encourage professionals who adhere to their code
of ethics.
6. RQS should demonstrate greater interest in, and commitment to, the Mandate and
activities of the QSRBN.
7. The Board, and RQS should continue to explore more platforms to publicize and promote
the profession and its attributes.
8. The QSRBN should be empowered to fulfil its extensive Mandate, which should ultimately
have far-reaching positive impacts on the profession, RQS and the economy at large.
9. For the QS profession, Ethics, integrity and Core Values should be the driving force for
decision making.
10. RQS should take crucial project decisions based on reliable and timely data. This also brings
into focus the essence of a Cost Data Base and Data centre for the profession.
11. RQS should increasingly adopt Total Quality Management [TQM], which will enable the
attainment of cost-effective and efficient customer-satisfaction.
12. RQS must promote professional ethics and a social responsibility.
13. To empower RQS to perform their roles effectively, there should be strong commitment
from various levels of leadership. There should also be Leadership by Example.
14. RQs should endeavour to network with relevant decision-makers to enable them generate
more patronage and recognition for the profession.

MASTER PLAN FOR THE QUANTITY SURVEYORS REGISTRATION BOARD OF NIGERIA
(QSRBN) AS A BODY CORPORATE
INTRODUCTION:
The Quantity Surveyors Registration Board of Nigeria (QSRBN) is the key agency of the Federal
Government on issues related to the regulation and control of practice of quantity surveying profession in
Nigeria. By mandate, QSRBN is to develop and facilitate the implementation of government policies for the
provision of adequate palliatives to make the quantity surveying profession responsive to the challenges
inherent in the building and construction sector of the Nigerian economy. The Key mandate of the Board is
to fast track orderly development of the quantity surveyors profession as encapsulated in the Decree No.31
of December 5, 1986 now CAP 383, LFN 1990. By this law, the QSRBN is empowered to;
i.
ii.
iii.
iv.
v.
vi.
vii.
Determine who is a Quantity Surveyor in Nigeria.
Regulate and control the practice of the Quantity Surveying profession
Determine what standard of knowledge and skill to be attained by persons seeking to be
quantity surveyors.
Register Quantity surveyors and firms
Establish registers of persons and firms approved to practice quantity surveying in Nigeria.
Develop standards for accreditation of academic institutions – universities, polytechnics,
etc.
Monitor activities of registered quantity surveyors, and firms in Nigeria to ensure
maintenance of professional ethics and integrity.
It is obvious that in both direction and magnitude, the demand for effectiveness in the
management of the Board to achieve its mandate will require modern scientific approach.
It is of great interest to note that the current leadership of the Board is desirous of a strategic plan
to actualize the mandate. The plan will translate existing strategies into action to make measurable
improvement to the profession within a short period. In broad terms, the objectives will revolve around the
accomplishment of the vision via the stated mission statements.
The Vision:
To be the best Quantity Surveying Body in Africa and one of the best in the world.
The Mission:
To make professional ethics, competence, integrity and the pursuit of value-for-money probity and
accountability the central focus in our regulatory role within the Nigerian economy.
INSTITUTIONAL DEVELOPMENT
QUANTITY SURVEYORS REGISTRATION BOARD OF NIGERIA’S INSTITUTIONAL DEVELOPMENT
The pivotal elements required to position the Board as a corporate body for the performance of
the laid down general duties enshrined in the statutes book (Decree No 31 of 5th December 1986) is very
weak. From close observation, it is clear that the emphasis has been on the Board members as constituted
rather than the Board as a Body Corporate. The desire and emphasis is to project the obvious necessity of
establishing a Body Corporate with appropriate logistics and infrastructure that is in tandem with the
international best practices.
We are therefore putting forward for the Body Corporate – Board, the following logistics and
infrastructure;
i.
ii.
Organizational Structure
Broad categorization of departmental job description
188
iii.
iv.
v.
Establishment of National Cost Data Centre
Development of Cost Database
Operational Modalities for mandatory involvement of building and construction projects of
government at both Federal, State and Local government by ensuring:
a. Determination of standards and project cost limits
b. Monitoring, Evaluation and Enforcement
c. Addressing Ethics offences and Discipline
The obvious benefit derivable from implementing the aspect of the law establishing QSRBNas a
Body Corporate with clear functions, structure and operational modalities will be enormous. Key issues it
will address will include but not limited to;
i.
ii.
iii.
iv.
Recording incidences of imperfect cost of government building and construction projects
within the country for projects under uniform conditions. Nigeria is known to be one of the
few countries in the world under the category of imperfect project cost with high
correlation co-efficient for corruption and deliberate act of falsification.
Billions, if not trillions of Naira will be saved if the Board is encouraged to develop and
deploy capacity as a body corporate towards mandatory involvement in cost determination
of building and construction projects of governments.
The Body Corporate will compliment and provide valid knowledge input for improved
activities of the Bureau of Public Procurement and other agencies of government in
appropriate cost determination.
The proposed development will earn the Nation high level of sanity, integrity, value for
money and harmony in the critical issues of government building and construction project
costs.

There shall be five (5) functional departments and at least three Units and this will include;
I.
II.
III.
IV.
V.
Register and Accreditation Department (R&A): The department will be responsible for design,
development and management of the register/directory of professional quantity surveyors
practicing in Nigeria. In addition the department will provide templates, modalities and operational
modalities for accreditation of Nigeria based institutions engaged in education training and award
of certificates in the area of quantity surveying. The two Divisions of this department are the
Register Division and the Accreditation Division.
Standards and General Services Department (SGS):This very important department will consist of
the Standards and Compliance Division and the Enforcement and Operations Division. The
department will be responsible for design, deployment of building and construction cost standards
acceptable limits of variation. The department will ensure compliance and conduct enforcement
operations.
Cost Quality Management Department (CQM): The department of Cost Quality Management will
ensure that there is mechanism for continuous process and system improvement. It will be
responsible for the design, development and management of the monitoring and performance
evaluation framework. The two Divisions of the Department will include the Monitoring Division
and Evaluation and Reporting Division. This department will ensure that the QSRBN as a Body
Corporate sets measurable targets, indicators and parameters of interest that would address
mandate challenges. Among other duties of the Department is the constant identification and
tracking of constraint factors in the service delivery of the Board.
Planning, Research & Statistics Department (PRS): The Department will consist of Corporate
Planning and Research Division and the Statistics and ICT Division. The Department will be
responsible for the Development and Deployment of Work Programme, Strategic Planning and
Data Production. In addition the department will ensure the use of ICT in the management of
systems and processes of service delivery. The department will manage the National Cost Data
Centre and the Construction Cost Database.
Finance and Administration Department (FA): This department of Finance and Administration will
consist of two Divisions including Finance and Accounts Division and the Administration and
Personnel Division. This department will ensure good accounting process, general public service
rules, resource allocation and staff welfare. The department will keep account of the capital
budget, recurrent expenditures, compensation of employees and revenue generation.
The three major (Semi-autonomous) units of the QSRBN as a Body Corporate will consist of the:
a) Legal Unit -: Responsible for all legal advices and representation
b) Internal Audit -: Conduct Audit and provide the broad guidelines on ensuring compliance to
rules of procurement and expenditure
c) Public Affairs and International Relations Unit: The unit will promote corporate publicity,
public education and also promote relations with international professional bodies.
In terms of managing the organizational structure the Department will be headed by a Director
while Deputy Directors preside over the Divisions. In the initial period there will be officers lower than the
posts but will possess appropriate professional and academic qualification, experience and exposure.
The Board will leverage from pooled officers from such offices as the Ministry of Justice for a Legal
Adviser, Office of the Accountant General and Auditor General for the Account and Audits respectively.
Similarly, the Office of the Head of Service of the Federation would provide administrative officers on pool.
Officers who will make careers in the Board will be recruited from the Labor Market as employees
of the QSRBN. Most of these officers would be Quantity Surveyors, Statisticians and ICT Specialists.
Outside the Headquarters, there would be six zonal Head Offices in Lagos, Kaduna, Bauchi, PortHarcourt, Enugu and Abuja. The heads of theses Zonal Head Offices would be Assistant Directors or slightly
191
below. The Zonal Head Office would conduct field operations involving monitoring, evaluation, data
collection, and general ad hoc duties.
INFRASTRUCTURAL DEVELOPMENT
The Body Corporate would require critical infrastructure such as:
i.
ii.
iii.
iv.
v.
Office Accommodation
Office Equipments
Transport Equipment
ICT Infrastructure and equipments
Cooling and ventilation systems, etc.
The current office accommodation in Abuja will be the take off Headquarters and may be transferred to
the Zonal Head Office of the North Central Zone if the new Headquarters building is developed in future.
The system and process of service delivery for the new QSRBN (as a body corporate) will be ICT driven
and to be predicated on fact based decision making towards policy and performance design, project
implementation, performance monitoring and evaluation. The Body Corporate will establish the National
Cost Data Centre with robust cost database. The website will transform into a portal that is database
enabled.
The headquarters will be linked to the zonal head offices via WAN while the headquarters will operate
LAN connectivity that terminates at the Data Centre. Data streaming will be the norm and data sharing will
be unhindered. Tracking relevant price input to cost determination will constitute the key elements of
providing adequate prototype cost for specific Building and Construction project estimates.
COST DATABASE DEVELOPMENT
OBJECTIVE:
The key objective of the assignment is to position the QSRBN as a Body Corporate in tandem with
the dictates of the law establishing the Board. The structure is designed to provide adequate organizational
structure that will help the establishment perform the functions listed in the statute – Decree No 31 of 5th
December 1986. In order to properly reposition the Board, it is incumbent on the management to adopt a
Master Plan as a strategic framework for the establishment and operation of QSRBN as a body corporate
under the guidelines of the public service. It is also imperative to emphasize modern management
techniques involving the use of statistical information for ensuring fact based decision making at all levels
and stages of the systems and processes of management. Hence, the need to establish the National Cost
Data Centre for the Board and the development of requisite Cost Database for the Quantity Surveyors
Registration Board of Nigeria (QSRBN). The Master Plan will ensure that the QSRBN will operate on a
platform that produces and uses Data and Facts to measure, monitor and report development in the
Building and Construction Sector of the economy, especially in the area of Quantity Surveying activities.
The database would warehouse and archive enormous datasets about the activities of Quantity
Surveyors in different building and construction projects. In addition, the Board will also canvass data from
key stakeholders in the development of the QSRBN Databases. The functional classification and
categorization of development indicators and parameters will also take into cognizance, the developmental
activities listed in the general duties of the Board and other stakeholders.
COMPENDIUM AS BACKBONE FOR COST DATABASE
The Key element that will constitute the Cost Data Compendium of terms, concepts, definitions and
methodologies will include but not limited to the following broad categories. Item classification will be
drawn along the International Standard for Industrial Classification (ISIC) Code.

This will include but not limited to the following.
4.1. Domestic Sources;
4.1.1. Forestry Sector
4.1.2.Mining and Quarrying
4.1.3.Manufacturing
4.2. International (Imports)
4.2.1. Forestry Products

5. A very important element in the compendium is the price systems. This will include the following;
5.1. Producers Prices
5.2. Wholesale Prices
5.3. Retail Prices
5.4. Import Prices
193
6. The critical aspect of the compendium is the elements of key indicator, variables and parameters of
interest. These includes but not limited to the following;
6.1. Quantities (Number, Volume, Size, etc)
6.2. Prices indices (Produces Price Index, Consumer Price Index, wholesale price index, Import Price
Index)
6.3. Values/score
6.4. Country of origin of import
6.5. Country of destination of import
The issue of Database update will depend on quantity data collection from approved locations in the
country for purpose of prudent resource utilization; it will be advisable to start with 6 states, one selected
from each geopolitical zone. This exercise, in the short run would be on quarterly basis. However, it is most
ideal to collect data from the 36 states capital in Nigeria on selected items in each month in the long-run.
The model of the QSRBN Data Centre and Databases is highly digital and based on intensive
Information Communication Technology (ICT) application in the management of the systems and
processes. The databases will be hosted in a Data Centre that is properly configured, networked and web
enabled. It has implication for staff skill enhancement trainings and work culture reorientation.
The design and modus operandi for sustainability will ensure seamless flow of appropriate data
sets from the relevant stakeholders engaged in the profession. The QSRBN Building and Construction Cost
Data System (BCCS) of which the Board is the apex coordinating agency will consist of key stakeholders in
the development of the Centre. To ensure effective coordination, collaboration and cooperation within
BCCS, a Quantity Surveyor’s Consultative Committee on Statistics (QSCCS) should be established with the
secretariat in the QSRBN and the chairperson should be the President of QSRBN. The Consultative
Committee will ensure harmony in the system and guarantee seamless flow of data for updating the
database. The body should meet at least twice in a calendar year to deliberate on emerging statistical
issues; data development, uniform concepts, definitions, terms and methodologies, etc.
The key justification to establish a robust Data Centre and develop appropriate databases is to
ensure seamless flow of much needed data by QSRBN, Quantity Surveyors. The production and use of
adequate statistics will enable the Board measure the gaps and characterize the various dimensions for
effective policy and programme application. It is therefore of necessity for the Board to adopt a system of
knowledge based intervention as against guess work and extreme speculative tendencies in the efforts to
address the fundamental problems of the development of Quantity Surveying in Nigeria.
