	It is now proposed that cost benchmarking should be carried out across all government capital programmes to create baselines for a cost/value-led approach to procurement.

−	In the private sector, comparable cost information may not be so readily available. However, large organisations may have access to in-house cost information, and some cost information is published. Comparative information can also be purchased from sources such as the ~~[http://www.bcis.co.uk/site/index.aspx~~ Building Cost Information Service (BCIS).] See BCIS Online for a description of the tender price and duration information available.	+	In the private sector, comparable cost information may not be so readily available.

	It is important, however, that benchmarking does not simply consider construction costs, as these are only a small proportion of whole-life costs, and setting a low benchmark for construction could result in higher operating, maintenance and refurbishment costs throughout the life of the building.

	It is important also to consider both quality and time, as the lowest cost option may not always offer the best value for the client or deliver a completed project within the required timeframe.
