## 1990 K Street: ConEst Manager Review

[[conest-manager-review]] for [[1990-k-street]]
lead by Josh Ford and [[joel-jansen]]

### Purpose of ConEst Manager Review

Josh explains purpose of this review to PE

Jobs below 12% margin
are reviewed further with [[corwin-fluit]]
who is able and authorized
to "make judgement calls" on pricing concerns
in order to get GP to an acceptable number.

PDI MC Cable pricing is market rate,
we have vendor specific pricing with Southwire
up to 20% lower

### Switchgear

Josh will usually not review switchgear takeoff
unless there is significant difference from labor plan

### Primaries & Secondaries

Where PEPCO is the power utility:
typically own nothing for primaries
conduit only for secondaries.

Confirmed for 1990.

### VE's To Be Incorporated Later

* Wire feeders ILO busduct

### Feeders

Fire pump feeds are not tagged as 2hr rated
takeoff assumed 2hr rated MC cable ("Vitalink")
to be confirmed with [[christian-pereiro]].

### EV Chargers

EV Chargers were erroneously placed in `System` "EL - Electrical".

### Lighting Controls

Josh was looking for for energy code
not present in pre-takeoff email or OneNote.

ASHRAE 2016

***

Follow-up to [[2026-03-26_08-49-49#Lighting Control Assemblies]].

Josh confirmed the switch to complete-furnish assemblies was appropriate.

### Labor Plan

Garage Slab/Deck is $1.30/sf
where $1.00/sf was expected.
Josh attributes this mainly to the EV chargers and CO system.

Innerduct: Use 3hrs per Unit.

### Scratch

Composite Cleanup is based on 8hrs per week for every 10 crew

Coordination Study: Expect $15k per $10m of switchgear package

#### Temporary Lighting

Temp lighting budget does not include heating
or lighting in units ("task lighting")

#### Rigging

3rd party rigging quotes are only for special cases.
It is expected that the GC's crane
can be used to set switchboards and generators.

On 1990, the GC (Clarke) RFP provides 16 hours crane time.
