### 2100 Crystal Drive: ConEst Manager Review
|
|
|
|
[[conest-manager-review]] for [[2100-crystal-drive]]
|
|
lead by [[josh-ford]],
|
|
attended by [[joel-jansen]] and myself.
|
|
|
|
#### Josh's Review Order
|
|
|
|
1. Backwards from Final Pricing through rest of closeout,
|
|
1. Equipment: Cost = 1% of total cost - systems quotes?
|
|
2. briefly check Extension,
|
|
3. Takeoff:
|
|
1. Feeders
|
|
2. Subfeeds
|
|
3. Units
|
|
|
|
> [!failure]
|
|
> Quad USB's in Units were taken off as standard receptacles.
|
|
|
|
#### Lighting Control
|
|
|
|
Follow-up to [[2026-01-09_10-00-03#Lighting Control]].
|
|
Relevant to [[lighting-controls-takeoff]].
|
|
|
|
Josh stated my takeoff was correct per drawings,
|
|
but that concessions would need to be made for the scope
|
|
as sold by [[pdi-bid-estimating|Bid]].
|
|
At his direction I've removed dimming from BOH and corridor spaces.
|
|
The remaining takeoff will remain,
|
|
a $4/sf budget for a lighting control system for those areas was added.
|
|
|
|
I stated that our proposal was deceptive
|
|
for stating lighting control was included
|
|
to which Josh agreed.
|
|
|
|
2021 IECC applies.
|
|
|
|
Josh wants [[conest-pre-takeoff-confirmation]]
|
|
to ask if lighting control is "as shown" or "to code",
|
|
I objected that "to code" as interpreted by Bid
|
|
is not necessarily _to code_ in truth.
|
|
Truly, they need to just tell us what they included.
|
|
The customer would appreciate it too, I'm sure.
|
|
|
|
#### Bonus Incentivized Inter-Departmental Conflict
|
|
|
|
During the review a ~~project manager~~ came to Josh
|
|
to ask for a revision to a WBS
|
|
|
|
> [!aside]
|
|
> Sunset WBS: Engineer did not approve aluminum EMT
|
|
|
|
Bid receives bonuses based on _awarded GP_ ([[markup-vs-margin|margin]]),
|
|
thus they are incentivized to underestimate cost.
|
|
[[pdi-operations|Ops]] receives bonuses based on _positive GP variance_,
|
|
thus they are incentivized to overestimate cost.
