# PDI Labor Plan

1. Fill out project basics

2. Check that everything is sorted into correct `Phase` and `Area` (Extension: Phase - Area)

3. Move everything in BUILDING FA systems into FA phase

    * Create `Phase` = "Fire Alarm"
    * Check `System` and `Bid Item`
    * Scroll through each and select all line items `FA - ...`
    * Set `Phase` = "Fire Alarm"

4. Separate all Phases into their proper corresponding `Labor Factor`

    * Scroll through each `Phase`
    * Change breakdown of everything in each phase to the proper `Labor Factor`
    * Do not move Temp Power (budgets) or site

5. Use the Accubid Extension tab to fill out the "Unit Lbr Calc" tab in the labor plan

6. Select extension view "Phase, Sort Code"

7. Open `Phase` "UNIT RESIDENTIAL" and "Building - Corridors"

8. Go into each Sort code to find the count for each unit item

    | Code | Description          |
    | ---- | -------------------- |
    | 200  | rough                |
    | 300  | trim                 |
    | 400  | rough wire and cable |

9. Some items will autofill when you fill out the "Accubid Extension Totals" table on the right

    * Anything you make adjustments to, highlight red so it can be reviewed

10. Fill out the "Labor for Concrete Slab/Deck Labor" table on the labor sheet calc tab

    * For the floor counts, if there are multiple buildings, add their total level count together
        * 2 buildings that each have 10 floors, input 20 for "number of floors - building

    * Add any useful description to the naming
        * Can change "Other" to something more prevalent on the project

    * "pour section rate" refers to the size of each slab that will be poured
        * sometimes will be shown on the structural plans

    * "Number of days per..." equals "Pour Section Qty" times 4 or 5

11. Check that everything is sorted into correct `Phase` and `Area` (Extension: "Phase - Area")
