Measurement book (MB)

Also called: MB

How it works

Quantities in the measurement book are the authority for the current quantity in an RA bill. When the previous-bill quantities in the bill do not match the measurement book, clients reject the bill and the cash slips another month.

Linking measured quantities directly to BOQ items removes the retyping that causes those mismatches.

Frequently asked questions

Who signs the measurement book?

The measurement is recorded by the engineer and acknowledged by the contractor, as the contract requires.
