About Us 

The Society was formed in 1974 by amalgamation of the Society of Chief Quantity Surveyors of County Councils, the Society of County Borough Chief Quantity Surveyors, and the Association of London Borough Quantity Surveyors.

All Society members are Chartered Quantity Surveyors, so there is a strong connection with the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors. The Society is a member of the Federation of Property Societies and it maintains links with a number of "sister organisations", including in particular  SCALA - the Society of Chief Architects of Local Authorities. 

Through the years the Society has published a number of documents which have become industry standards, including guidance on the calculation of liquidated and ascertained damages, practice in relation to insolvency, and perhaps most notably the creation of the National Schedule of Rates.
