Rider Levett Bucknall (RLB) is an independent global consultancy practice with a commitment to delivering high quality outcomes through advice focused on cost, quality and sustainability within property, infrastructure, construction and facilities.
RLB offers a comprehensive range of complementary cost consultancy, project management and advisory services from conception, through the design and construction and operational performance of facilities to their eventual disposal or reuse. Our clients have rapid access to the latest industry intelligence and innovations, which serve to enhance value and mitigate risk. We provide expert time management of the relationship between value, time and cost from inception to completion.
RLB can trace their origins in Australasia back to the United Kingdom in 1785, when Henry Cooper, the son of a master carpenter, founded a firm of Quantity Surveyors in Reading, England. Rider Hunt commenced practice as Quantity Surveyors in the early 1900s when J. Rider Hunt purchased Henry Cooper & Son practices in London.
Tracing its roots, the firm has a long and proud history of offering an extensive range of cost consultancy and advisory services and delivering award-winning landmark projects.
For over 230 years, RLB has been at the forefront of innovation by embracing global best practice and using local knowledge to deliver full property solutions for clients across a number of sectors.
In Australia, RLB was first established as Rider Hunt in 1949 in Melbourne with a second office in Sydney in 1954. The strength of these offices continued with the post war boom and expanded as new offices and partnerships were established throughout Australia and New Zealand.
Now with over 3,600 professionals in more than 120 offices across Asia, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, the Americas and Oceania, RLB offers clients access to the highest quality expertise supported by a depth of knowledge and experience few firms can rival.
RLB conducts research and publishes its findings across a wide range of key issues that impact the economics of the built environment.
One such publication is the Riders Digest. First issued in 1973, the Riders Digest is an annual compendium of regional and international industry information.

aUstralian constrUctionrEGional indicEs
The construction cost information in this publication is based upon rates for capital city construction projects and are current for the Fourth Quarter 2015. For towns or cities outside capital cities, costs can be expected to vary in accordance with the following table of indices:
The above table should be used only as a comparative guide, and is only appropriate for the urban precincts nominated and for the larger commercial projects.
Care must be taken to review specific local market conditions within the anticipated time frame of a project development period before establishing and committing viable budgets for projects.
In the event that projects are required to be constructed in remote locations or in areas without urban infrastructure, then special consideration must be given to the budget structure of these projects. Each project must be considered in detail and its specific resource requirements assessed and sourced to establish budget costs.
RLB recommend that advice on local market conditions be sought from our regional offices when initial project budgets and feasibility studies are in the process of establishment. (Our regional offices are identified on page 86.)
