### Charlotte South End Hotel: ConEst Manager Review
[[conest-manager-review]] for [[charlotte-south-end-hotel]]
lead by [[josh-ford]],
attended by [[joel-jansen]] and myself.
#### Feeders
"MSA TO BUSDUCT"
needs more elbows: added.
Josh talked about necessary pullboxes,
but they were not added.
Josh stated the purpose of the closeout budget
is to prevent procurement from buying sizes
that may be chosen arbitrarily.
Added $5,000 to the budget.
Concern was expressed
that feeders up from Main Elec may need to be lengthened
to follow MSA TO BUSDUCT routing shown on floor plans.

> I really like that your feeders are whole numbers, that's nice.
***
Generator control wiring missing?
may be taken off as mech?
not resolved, moved on?
#### Subfeeds
##### Unit Mech Connections
concern that subfeeds may be double dipping
suggest decreasing if tightening is needed
##### Routing
Josh complemented subfeed routing:
"That's taking pride in your work."
I have had hesitation that it was worth doing,
if someone told be it was a waste of time,
I would not have been inclined to disagree.
#### Units
Unit receptacles are shown controlled by master switch system.
I assumed full control (not half) so no made no consideration in takeoff.
Approved.
#### Lighting Control
DO NOT USE `System` "LV - Lighting Controls System" EVER
#### My Mistakes
> [!failure]
> Port Cochere was taken off as Exterior Amenity.
> Joel corrected this without telling me.
> [!failure]
> Missed unit occupancy sensors
#### Closeout
> [!quote] Josh Ford
> We're carrying material handling
> because we own fixtures and its a tall building
#### Labor Plan
\$1.41 per sf garage, expected ~\$1.00
***
0.182 hrs/sf seems incredibly high,
expected ~0.120.
#### Aside
> [!aside]
> [[estimating-golf]] question:
> "you only have one main switchboard?"
***
Josh found the answer to a question of scope
in the qualifications of [[pdi-bid-estimating|Bid]]'s proposal.
he said he did not immediately think to look for them
because they are rare of current proposals.
Apparently they are penalized by the Proposal Audit Scorecard.
"They wanted it uniform so they stopped putting qualifications on proposals"
