The Smart Way to Control FF&E Budgets Before Tender Stage

Managing FF&E budgets is one of the most underestimated parts of any development project — until it’s too late. At Vero Consulting, we help clients take control of their furniture, fixtures, and equipment costs before they spiral.

Too often, FF&E is treated as an afterthought. By the time tenders are issued, key specification and cost decisions have already been locked in — often without accurate benchmarking. This can result in inflated costs, rushed procurement, and value compromises.

A smarter approach is to engage an FF&E consultant early. By analysing design intent, market pricing, and project goals at concept stage, we establish a realistic budget framework that developers, designers, and quantity surveyors can all align on.

At Vero Consulting, our process integrates cost planning, specification strategy, and supplier validation to create transparent, reliable FF&E budgets. The result? Fewer surprises, smoother procurement, and stronger financial control throughout the project lifecycle.

If you’re planning a new development or refurbishment, our team can help you define, manage, and protect your FF&E investment from day one.

Contact Vero Consulting today to schedule a consultation and see how early FF&E strategy can save your project time and money.
