The lighting drawings for
450-460 James Robertson Parkway Phase II
(fka James Roberston Pkwy Mixed Use Development)
show occupancy sensors serving electrical rooms.
I knew this was understood to be prohibited,
but could not have provided a code reference.
[[nfpa-70_110_requirements#110.26(D) Illumination.|110.26(D)]]
is the relevant section.

### Accurate Budget Vs. Accurate BOM
#### Quote
> [!quote] Joel Jansen [[2026-01-15#2026-01-15 13:27]] (pp.)
> I'd rather have an accurate budget than an accurate BOM.
#### Context
#### Analysis
It may be counterintuitive to BOM-oriented estimators
(typical of those with an electrical background),
but deviating from ~~common practice~~
to make an assembly "more accurate"
(read: to make the estimate BOM
more closely resemble the construction BOM),
may make the budget _less_ accurate.
The review and adjustment process is based on ~~common practice~~,
Our assemblies do not include screws
It would be more accurate to the BOM to add them,
but we budget for that cost in the summary,
so to do so would be double dipping.
Though not stated as such,
we budget for takeoff-to-install deviations the same way.
\
An organization's takeoff database
ought to include exactly what is necessary for takeoff
at the acceptable level of detail, and nothing else.
It ought to be assumed by estimators that the previous is true,
and that acceptable takeoff of any scope
must be possible with the contents of the database.

# Project Management™
[[this-notebook]] assumes the reader is more familiar with the construction industry
than with any of the other disciplines introduced.
As such, "project management" usually refers to _construction_ project management,
or more generally to a layman understanding of the term:
roughly, "the organizational processes necessary to complete a long-term goal".
%%
Where I am referring specifically to the discipline,
as documented by the [Project Management Institute](htpps://pmi.org),
I've opted to humorously style the term as Project Management™ for clarity.
## TALK
## The Problem with Project Management™
%%
This note is distinguished from [[project-management]]
by referring specifically to doctrine/curriculum,
especially as documented by [The Project Management Institute](htpps://pmi.org).
I've opted to humorously style this concept as Project Management™ for clarity.
That is, "Project management" could never be wrong or even misguided,
but Project Management™ can (and often is).
This note may include generic criticism,
but discussion of the applicability (or lack thereof)
of Project Management™ to construction specifically
## Criticism
The term "Project Management" is deliberately vague,
in the hope that generalizing the terminology
maximizes its applicability across industries.
There are many core Project Management™ ideas that have no parallel in construction,
and there are as many or more critical construction project management problems
There are many core Project Management™ ideas
that have no parallel in other industries,
and industries often have problems of project management
that Project Management™ doctrine has no good solutions for.
See [[project-management-tm-for-construction]] for examples.
I would posit that, despite its cross-discipline language,
Project Management™ practice is only _universally_ applicable

# Project Management
[[this-notebook]] assumes the reader is more familiar with the construction industry
than with any of the other disciplines introduced.
As such, "project management" usually refers to _construction_ project management.
This note refers more generally to a layman understanding of the term:
roughly, "the organizational processes necessary to complete a long-term goal".
This note is not concerned with any particular implementation
of project management processes (See [[project-management-tm]]),
only the end goals of optimal organization.
That is, "project management" could never be wrong or even misguided.
See cross-topics for industry specific project management concerns and practices.
Notably [[project-management-for-construction]]
and [[project-management-for-construction-estimating]].
