+Travelling with Brian Smarslok and Joel Jansen on [[2026-01-15]]
+to visit [[#Woodbury Heights|an awarded project]] in New Jersey.
+Flying from TPA to PHL, departure @ 7:00AM.
+We'll be meeting with the developer, [Greystar](https://www.greystar.com/).

+#### GP Variance
+
+"GP%" is **margin** (see [[markup-vs-margin]]).
+
+The job appears to be doing poorly, at current GP variance of -$299,356.
+
+About $93,000.00 profit on a $2,391,378 job (~3% margin, down from 16.4% as bid).
+
+Intend to ask Joel what was missed if he knows,
+and more generally if he has a strategy for figuring out,
+between BPM, The Hub, and however many other places we can look.
+
+I doubt very seriously that mismanagement
+can be blamed for any significant portion of variance that extreme.

+**Dry utilities:** utilities other than "wet" utilities (water, sewer, stormwater),
+namely power, data, and natural gas.

+
+Joel attributes the [[#GP Variance|apparent variance]] to
+1. missed Polaris lugs for feeders for one building,
+2. insufficient budget for equipment rental, and
+3. upfront costs already paid (construction is 50% complete).
+
+He also said that operations accused ConEst
+of providing insufficient length for subfeeds,
+which he said was true,
+but not to the extent accused
+(only ~600ft missed total).
+
+The award WBS shows $32,382 for equipment rental
+
+I'm dubious of all these explanations,
+but I don't have another one.
+I can't find the ConEst folder or Accubid file.
