# 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|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")
