DECISION RULE

Use the difference between option A and option B; keep the scale and horizon identical for both. Use this profile when protecting downside matters more than optimizing the headline result. Review the assumptions midway because prices and usage may already have changed.

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.
