Who are we? 

Heidi surveying a road

  Heidi van Eeden

 
I am the Director of Clarity Cost Management Limited, a quantity surveying consultancy dedicated to bringing clarity, fairness and strategic commercial oversight to construction projects.

Originally trained in civil engineering, I discovered my professional calling in contract law - a turning point that transformed me from a technical observer to a confident participant and leader.  I went on to complete my quantity surveying cadetship and, over the next 15 years, gained three additional qualifications in Construction Technology, Construction Economics and Management, and Dispute Resolution. Intentionally building deep commercial expertise from the ground up.

My career spans South Africa, Ireland and New Zealand, working across mines, residential developments, commercial high-rise and multi-use developments, community, infrastructure and major health facilities. I have worked on all sides of the industry - subcontractors, main contractors, design and build teams and consultancies - giving me a rare, whole-of-industry perspective. I continue to deepen and refresh this perspective through memberships with, AMINZ, ACICA, IOD, NZIQS, PMI, SCL and TLANZ. 

Today, I specialise in independent certification under NZS 3910:2023, commercial cost management, residential quantity surveying, and expert witness services in alternative dispute resolution processes and before New Zealand courts and tribunals.

I believe the construction industry earns greater respect when clarity replaces conflict.
