Audited planning profile

This standard ten-year profile applies a 1× editable baseline across 120 model periods to the concrete work compare model.

USE THIS PROFILE TO

Create an early quantity, budget or capacity check before requesting supplier or contractor quotes.

DECISION RULE

Use the difference between option A and option B; keep the scale and horizon identical for both. Use this as the central case, then compare a lean and conservative profile. Use a wide uncertainty range; small recurring assumption errors compound substantially over ten years.

NOT INCLUDED

Permits, local labor rates, material specifications, site conditions and professional engineering review are excluded.

VERIFY BEFORE ACTING

Verify dimensions, specifications, waste factors and current supplier or contractor quotes.
