Learning Goal
The goal of this chapter is to explain to you how you can make adjustments to various Materials and their associated costs in your bids.

When you add Material or Labor Items to your bid, many take on "Defaults" as setup in the Masters. Equipment and Other expenses can be added using Assemblies from the Masters. These are great starting points but may require a little 'fine-tuning' before you considering your Estimate done.

In this chapter, we're going to cover making adjustments to: 

  • Labor Production on a Line Item, Condition, or Bid level.
  • The Materials used in one or more Conditions: which Materials are used and even their pricing.
  • Rounding Materials to a Container to make ordering easier.
  • Allocating Equipment, Other, and Subs costs to different Bid Areas.
Let's start with adjusting Labor Production. You can adjust Labor for a Line Item (in the Condition's Item Grid), for an entire Condition, or at the Bid Level. We cover each in the next few articles
