Collaborative event on the ACA Time Cost Calculator Guide

11 October 2024

On Wednesday 16 October, the Regional Architecture Association (RAA) will host an online event with Paul Viney, ACA Vic/Tas Branch President, speaking on the ACA’s Time Cost Calculator Guide. ACA members are eligible to attend free of charge.

Do you know what your break even point is? How do you determine your billable and non-billable hours? What is the cost of your overheads/profit? Do you know your level of risk on your projects and the value you add through innovation? If you want to know more about these questions, the ACA Time Cost Calculator Guide (TCCG) is a tool to help practices assess the time and costs involved in providing an appropriate level of service for a broad range of building types. The Calculator provides a fundamental knowledge base for practices when developing fee proposals and when entering fee negotiations. It can be used by practices of all sizes for a wide range of building types, accommodates a range of service levels and procurement types, and places a value on risk and innovation.

Paul Viney, the developer of the ACA Time Cost Calculator Guide, will walk us through how to use the tool and explain how it can provide evidence to support sustainable fee levels for your practice, with the additional benefit of benchmarking practice overheads for similar sized firms. This is a great opportunity to discover the functionality, ask questions on how exactly to use the tool and be involved in a discussion on the many elements to consider when evaluating projects and setting your own fees.
