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.
