INCLUSIONS
This document is based on the measurement and pricing of quantities wherever information is
provided and/or reasonable assumptions for other work not covered in the drawings or
specifications, as stated within this document. Unit rates have been obtained from historical
records and/or discussion with contractors. The unit rates reflect current bid costs in the area. All
unit rates relevant to subcontractor work include the subcontractors overhead and profit unless
otherwise stated. The mark-ups cover the costs of field overhead, home office overhead and profit
and range from 15% to 25% of the cost for a particular item of work.
Pricing reflects probable construction costs obtainable in the project locality on the date of this
statement of probable costs. This estimate is a determination of fair market value for the
construction of this project. It is not a prediction of low bid. Pricing assumes competitive bidding
for every portion of the construction work for all subcontractors and general contractors, with a
minimum of 4 bidders for all items of subcontracted work and 4-5 general contractor bids.
Experience indicates that a fewer number of bidders may result in higher bids, conversely an
increased number of bidders may result in more competitive bids.
Since Davis Langdon Adamson has no control over the cost of labor, material, equipment, or over
the contractor's method of determining prices, or over the competitive bidding or market
conditions at the time of bid, the statement of probable construction cost is based on industry
practice, professional experience and qualifications, and represents Davis Langdon Adamson's
best judgment as professional construction consultant familiar with the construction industry.
However, Davis Langdon Adamson cannot and does not guarantee that the proposals, bids, or the
construction cost will not vary from opinions of probable cost prepared by them.
