PROFILE / 01Katya BlucherIndependent Quantity Surveyor
Professional Profile
Accurate calculations. Structured material. Focused support.
Katya Blucher provides quantity surveying, preparation and review of contractor payment applications, and project support for construction and infrastructure projects. Her professional experience includes working with contractors, project managers, supervision teams and clients, with emphasis on accuracy, control and orderly documentation.
Her work connects drawings and specifications with actual execution: measuring quantities, assigning them to BOQ items, maintaining cumulative account records, reviewing variations and organizing the supporting documentation. The goal is to turn extensive, complex project material into information that can be reviewed, explained and advanced.
Katya supports contractors in preparing substantiated payment applications and also assists clients and supervision companies in reviewing submitted accounts. Understanding both sides of the account helps identify questions and gaps early and present the figures clearly and professionally.
Professional Experience
Experience across diverse and complex project environments
The experience presented in the company profile includes aviation and infrastructure, hospitality and construction, logistics and urban development projects, including Ramon Airport, W Hotel Jaffa, Tnuva’s Eilat logistics center and the Acapulco Promenade renovation in Eilat.
Different project types require careful document review, an understanding of measurement methods and continuity across revisions, accounts and changes. For Katya, experience is not merely a list of projects; it is the ability to understand project documentation quickly, establish a consistent working method and maintain control as the volume of information grows.
01My professional belief
I believe that an accurate figure is only the beginning. For a quantity or payment request to withstand review, its source, calculation method and relevant document or BOQ item must be clear. Good professional work creates transparency, reduces misunderstandings and enables every project stakeholder to work from the same information.
02What project success means to me
To me, success means delivering a clear, substantiated account or review report: every quantity has a source, every change is documented, continuity with previous accounts is maintained, and the parties can make an informed decision. This is not a promise that an account will be approved; it is a reliable professional basis that advances the review process and reduces avoidable disputes.
